In February of this year I was given a school project to do. I chose to a survey which aimed to find out who was:

(1) The favourite characters

(2) The least favourite characters

(3) The funniest characters

(4) The most missed characters

The response I recieved was incredible. Even some of my teachers who I did not think liked Coronation Street admitted to being avid fans! The people on Mike Plowman's CSVU site were also very helpful. I want to thank everyone for taking the time to complete my survey!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

It gives me great pleasure to announce that although my project did not recieve first prize I received a highly recommended prize! Winning didn't matter to me. I really enjoyed doing this project and am not bitter about the fact that I did not win. I am just proud that I have conducted such an indepth study into Coronation Street which alot of people are interested in! Here are the results from the 300 people who were surveyed:
