For me, Steve McDonald reminds me of Jack Duckworth and Beth Tinker reminds me of Cilla Battersby.

There does seem to be a strong thread flowing through the show that the women are strong (sometimes only superficially) and the men are weak or they just capitulate for a quiet life.
And the men with a bit of bite never last and usually die or go to prison. That's why I think Owen Armstrong is a really good character - he's different to the Norm.

LLoyd Mullaney - Fred Gee.

Showing men are weak in Corrie well Bet Lynch always used to lord it over Fred Gee and they always had banter but Bet always won esp when she had Betty on her side.

He has an excellent backstory too, single father to 2 girls, one with a serious medical condition.

I think Carla Connor (reallllly don't want to call her Barlow) reminds me a lot of Vera but with a little bit more class. Although she is far from a massively classy lady.

I think that Marcus reminds me of Martin Platt - feckless.

One more, Todd is now beginning to remind me of Sarah Platt - must have been taking lessons in vileness from her way back when.

THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE THEME THOUGH, I REMEMMBER AN ARTICLE YEARS AGO WHERE IT SHOWED THE "STRONG" WOMEN TOWERING OVER THE STREET. EASTENDERS ON THE OTHER HAND POTRAY THEIR WOMEN AS MAD WRECKS BECAUSE THE MAN CAN'T KEEP IT IN HIS PANTS UNLESS YOU EXEMPT KAT SLATER AND ALFIE MOON FROM THAT LOL

Sorry for the caps.
