My mate H (who a lot of people here have met) got his nickname from Harry Cross. He's a short, broad black lad but we nicknamed him H after Harry cos H also had a lodger back in the 80's who he was a complete c--- to, just like Harry Cross was to Ralph! 
True story that.
Harry Cross is defo up there with the best of them. Preferred Terry to Barry if I'm being honest. Tommy McArdle, class villain. Karen Grant for a bit of stowdent fanny. Sammy Rogers for a bit of plump young totty. God, there's loads.
That bird Sue who shagged both Tezza and Bazza was a near neighbour of mine in Crouch End. You still would.

Ralph!! forgot bout him.He was a star!
I used to have a bit of a thing for that bird Max was with.Or did he marry her? Patricia was it? Blonde one, Samantha?
There was top women in it over the years.Lisa Faulkner even it at one time.Never was a big fan of Jennifer Ellison though.Way overrated in my opinion
The Tommy Mcardle plot when whatsisname nearly got banged up for being the getaway driver was one of the big storylines i remember.
EDIT: I've got that wrong actually.Billy Corkhill was a getaway in another diffrent storyline.The Tommy McCardle one was when that other character innocently and naively gave him directions and information in the pub and unwittingly got involved.
I'd forgotten there was that Alan Partridge bloke who i think lived in one of the bungalows.Of course NOT the A-HA! Alan Partridge
sinbad jimmy corkhill damo

And sammy wiv er perm

I've only just worked out who yer on about, Al.Yeah i remember who yer mean now.She was alright, aye.She had a real strong scouse accent which is normally a big no no for me but i was ok with her grating wail
i loved sammy in the 80s, with her big hoopy earrings and curly locks. didn't she come back later though and be really annoying?

Was the best soap on the box in it's day.
1 Barry Grant 2 Jimmy Corkhill 3 Harry Cross
Had a thing for Amanda Burton at the time, also the Canadian lass who went with Jonathan was rather tasty.

Gabrielle Gaister
ah right thanks Minx.Recall who you mean now.That was Max's original Mrs i remember now.Samantha was his bit on the side who he evntually married only to later, allegedly, push down the stairs and kill , right?
Actually a mate of mine once saw Patricia Farnham (well, the actress who played her) on a railway station platform once in the 80s.He looked at her.And she looked at him.And they both though " don't i know you?"
tsk.
patricia was his original missus in the series, but they'd actually got married after he'd had an affair with her. he later remarried his first wife. susannah. and, although max was on trial for susannah's murder, didn't she trip over a toy at the top of the stairs? (always make sure the lego is put away nicely, kids.) he later had flings with sammy rogers and jacqui dixon.
i had a soft spot for max at one time; all floppy fringe and bumbling public school boy...

She asked me to dance in a nightclub in Chester one night,
years ago
I knocked her back,obviously....

Susannah!! That's the one i'm on about.Had remembered her name as Samantha for some reason.My memory is getting awful.Yes i know Patricia was his original missus in the soap.Susannah came on the scene later on and was revealed she was Max's former wife.And whom he then started knobbing again.And later remarried.Then killed.Possibly.
So to clarify and summarise -
I liked Susannah.
I didn't like Patricia.
Thanks

George Jackson!! That's the bugger! Thanks Lucy.I would never havew remmeebered his name.But he was one that was done over by the nasty McArdle yes.Poor Marie
I saw Jimmy Corkhill in Ikea when i was young. I fucking hate Ikea with a passion. and Corkhill looked scruffy as fuck.
Didnt Jimmy Corkhill become a school teacher and throw someone out of the window?
I liked Billy Corkhill had a bitch wife and his story line was like something out of the blackstuff. He eventually got the girl the lovely at the time Shiela.
Top totty has to have been Georgia? the incest story and of course that kiss between Beth (Anna freil)and the ginger one from clocking off got me right at it.

Didn't remember her being 'all that' in Brookie but she reappeared in 'Roger Roger' years after. There was one episode where her fella was in a band and they did a bit of roll-playing where she 'pretended' to be a groupie who pulled him in front of the rest of his band in a pub. Seem to remember she was very, very saucy in that.

Debbie presumably lives in Crouch End somewhere. Used to see her all the time before I moved.
How I ever resisted squealing "Damon" at her in a high-pitched tone I'll never know. 
Mr Jarvis
I think in hindsight it may have been her permanantly erect nipples that did it for me
:sex:anna friel of course, and who was the bird with the dark hair and big tits? think she was rod the plods sister? also jennifer ellison, though if i remember rightly, wasnt she a bit jail bait in brookie? and sammy rogers would have got it as well. oh and yes the ginger one who snogged beth, the kind of sweet girl next door vibe going on with her. also remember the incest bird, remember her coming down to the kitchen late at night in her smalls to seduce the brother, thought she look well dirty. fuck brookie was great now that i think of it.
I think Rod sister was sammy rogers described aptly by Al as as frumpy young totty or something of that ilk
No Rod's sister was Tracy Corkhill (Justine Kerrigan), Sammy Rodgers was Growler's sister.
Also Rod went out with a lass called Diana who had massive baps!
lucyjane wrote: Also Rod went out with a lass called Diana who had massive baps!
God, I forgot about her. Huge pair of wally jumblats on her!
Rod married her, didn't he? And she couldn't read or write.
And then she got 'raped' by Peter Harrison. And there was a national debate about whether it was 'rape' or not cos all we saw was the pair of them having a pissed grope. But then Rod's grandmother (god, what was her name?) basically told her it was rape, and it all spiralled outta control from there.
I've tried to track down a pick of her infamous chest. Er, and this is all I can find. :(
They don't look that massive on there, I was sure they were huge, that's why all the blokes fancied her, lets face it she was a bit of a monger
lucyjane wrote: They don't look that massive on there, I was sure they were huge, that's why all the blokes fancied her, lets face it she was a bit of a monger
If I remember rightly, they were really odd breasts weren't they? Long and big, rather than solid and big. They didn't sit up and beg, they seemed to sit around her stomach making her look pregnant. She had the breasts of a pensioner where gravity had taken a stranglehold long since.
Still giving me a semi just thinking about it though.

Amazing what publicity shots can do..

Sisterhood is alive and well and living in Yorkshire!!!
Go Luce!!!!
.... head in the clouds into the acid rai... oh hang on that's Nothside not Brookside.Or was that what you were trying to do?
Anyway what about Lisa Faulkner? I remember her being in it.Probably one of her first tv actressing roles.Can'r for the life of me remember what storyline she had but she did have great big birth spot on her mush in those days.Think she's got rid of it now or am i getting mixed up with Srah Jessica Parker?
Lisa Faulkner was defo in it but can't for the life in me remember who she played or any story lines, I don't think she had a mole though, pretty sure they were piercings.
Fradders - she was certainly not a monger.

She played Louise Hope (apparently!)
I can't even remember her being in Brookie 
Yeah I remember her.And her biological dad (in the soap) was released from prison and stalked the family.All that and he looked like Jesus. She looked a mess with all them piercings though.
Think her mum was some solicitor kind, seem to remember the mother had really bad thinning hair ( did she shag max?)

Reminds me of a bird I went out with at uni, thought they were gonna be huge until she got them out and they were just loooooong, had been doubled up in the holster!
