Tony Gordon off Corrie - he's a baddie, but I'm not sure if anyone other than another cut-throat businessman would be able to empathise...

Days is on now

I can only say Dirty Den and Janice from Eastenders then if it has to be only UK soaps.

Ah, I get it now. Well Stefano is still on Days, so I can recommend him. The other one I could recommend from EE is Shirley.

Just to let you know, not all Shirleys are scary.

OMG! I remember that Stefano guy back when I used to watch that soap as a teenager! lol! I had no idea they kept reviving this guy back so many times! lol! They must have really liked the actor and said anytime you wanna come back, we'll just make a stupid story up and bring you back to life...lol!

What about Tony from EE. We have a whole thread about how much we don't like him!

What about Jack and Max's sister --- her name escapes me at the moment --- I don't think anyone can stand her --- well, at least I know I can't

I think she's a real bitch.

Her name is Suzy. I have to agree, she is pretty cold hearted and self centered.
