[QUOTE="cobbles, post: 238175, member: 5138"] I actually think Corrie surprisingly the strongest in this regard..... Ken and Rita, Audrey will be the oldies until their replaced by Gail who will be the resident oldies until Sally and Kevin replace them until Peter, Tracy, Nick and Leanne, Carla or any combination take them over at which point you've got potential with David and Sarah and perhaps others of that era who become fixtures. Then the current generation. (Daniel to me seems a good shout for a never leaving character. Once those links to the past go, so will the people whose link to the past they are in 15 years time the link to the past will be Gail if she's still in it (Helen Worth would be 84 years old) and the likes of Sally and Kevin (Sally Dyvenor would be 72 and Michael le Vell would be 70) Those characters would then sort of assume the role that Ken and Rita fill over time. That's one of the ways Corrie's managed to survive so far and they'll keep it going - the legends of the past become floater characters in the background but their never written out unless they want to be. If you were unkind you could call it a 'living part of the furniture' technique but it works wonders. [/QUOTE]
