GBBF: Alfie Moon and Bet Lynch named UK’s top soap landlords
More than 1,000 members of the public voted for their favourite TV landlord or landlady from a choice of 16 possible options.
Alfie Moon (played by Shane Richie) won in a landslide victory in the landlord category, receiving nearly a quarter of the votes — almost twice as many as any of the other candidates.
Meanwhile, things were much closer for the ladies, with EastEnders’ Peggy Mitchell (played by Barbara Windsor) receiving 20% of the votes — just behind Bet Lynch (played by Julie Goodyear).
CAMRA will offer a free pint of beer to anybody dressed up as Moon or Lynch at the GBBF on Thursday 15 August and there will be a secret prize for the best costume.
