Top 5 soap hardmen of all time

[Urban Cragou]

Out of all the hardmen in soap, which five were your favourites?

I don't watch Emmerdale and it's never been Corrie's forte so I'd have to pick EastEnders by default.

1. Dennis Rickman
2. Grant Mitchell
3. Steve Owen
4. Dan Sullivan
5. Phil Mitchell (in his prime, from 1990 to 2003)

Probably in that order, from best to worst, for me, personally. Other honourable mentions would probably go to the likes of Dirty Den, Johnny Allen, and Jack Dalton.

[Drew.]

Cain Dingle is the only one worth mentioning, I like a few others but Cain will never be topped.

[Daniel-X]

Cain Dingle and Trevor Royle both serve charisma and nice sides so them two are me faves.

[Cal.]

Trevor Royle for sure.

[Denver]

Billy Mitchell

[Rob!]

Bobby Beale
