Even those who have never watched one single episode of Coronation Street will know who Les Battersby, such was the impact of Bruce Jones' on-screen character and his family.
Les, wife Janice, daughter Leanne and stepdaughter Toyah quickly became soap legends back in 1997, when they burst onto the ITV show and arrived on the cobbled streets of Weatherfield, ready to cause chaos.
Over the years, viewers watched Janice gradually have enough of Les and his ways - leaving him for his friend Dennis Stringer - and Les move on to form a new family unit with barmaid Cilla Brown, her son Chesney and of course, pet pooch Schmeichel.
