Who is the most annoying fictional character ever?

[WomenHour]

I would say currently it's Geoff from Corrie.

Jem in the Chalet School books! Falstaff in 'Henry IV Part 1' - actually everyone in 'Henry IV Part 1'. but the rest aren't fictional.

What on earth is wrong with Hagrid?

Andi Macdowell's character in Four Weddings. Grr

Julian from the Famous Five.

Most of these. And Mr Poppy from Nativity.

Sara Tancredi from Prison Break. America’s dimmest doctor.

Fleabag.
Bridget Jones and all those similar chick-lit characters, being perpetually late, unorganised and useless isn't endearing or funny it's just fucking annoying.

the mum of the boy from about a boy

Posy was not sugar pink. She was ruthless, and self-obsessed, and would have thrown anybody under the bus if it improved her dancing. But a love of/obsession with ballet is not pink in the slightest.

If you've ever read Alexander McCall Smith's Isabel Dalhousie books, then I hope you'll agree that she is extraordinarily annoying. And we're supposed to buy that she edits a philosophy magazine, despite her philosophical musings being mundane drivel.

Annabeth Schott on West Wing but a big yes to Amy also.

Mandy actress was hard done by. The actress was solely brought in as a love interest for Josh but there was no chemistry and they just binned her and never mentioned her existence again.

Sorkin is not a great writer of women

And then there's Andy, so great until what she did near the end, and then there's Ainsley and a really awful episode where she is used to defend male objectification.

Casual Workplace Sexism and homophobia have dated the West Wing more than anything else

Everyone from The Little House On The Prairie

I agree!

Scrappy doo

Mary Bloody Poppins !

Pollyanna, such a dislike for that girl

That Ugly Betty person.
Anyone in Desperate Housewives.

Yes, the actress playing Mandy was poorly served. Mandy was badly written - can you imagine having to deliver the line 'look at how smart and cute i am?' but she was still annoying at hell.

sorkin really struggles to write women well yet still got great characters and performances out of Cj, Mrs Barlett and mrs Landigham.
The west wing is now quite clearly a dated piece but it stands up better than most

Rachel Lynde in the Anne of Green Gables books. A pain in the arse nosy know it all and a great big gossip.
Also Diana. A bit wet and too good next to the great character of Anne.

Heathcliffe and whatsername from wuthering heights
Ugh.

Keep trying to read this damn book, cuz , well, culture, but the just irritate the hell out of me!!

Another vote for that fucking vapid Shopaholic woman. Waste of good trees.

@fishonabicycle

Negan in the Walking Dead. I had to stop watching.

Whaaaaaat?!

He is bloody fantastic!!

@VeganVeal

Scrappy doo

Came here to say exactly this, the little shit

Becky Bloomwood from the shopaholic books. Why does everyone enable her? And why did I read more than one book?

Agree! Julian was a pompous prick!

Also Harry Potter or maybe I mean Daniel Radcliffe playing HP.

Darrell Rivers

Horrid Henry

Mrs Bennett in Pride and Prejudice.

King Lear - what a bloody twat he is.

Julia Robert's character in My Best Friend's Wedding.
