Top 30 Coronation Street Hardmen

[@brendanbradyfan02]

Tony Stewart my favourite, especially the scene where he saves Jason from Callum’s boss and off screen breaks down the door as Callum mentions and they back off Tony and Jason as he seemed not be messed with or about to get messy as Tony said in a intimidating way

Several higher than Len Fairclough who I think was one of the harder of Corrie's hardmen. At first I wouldn't have put Tyrone on here, but he is quite a tough man. An honourable mention would be David Platt, he can be a tough one. Another would probably be Jez Quigley but he relied on his cronies, plus he couldn't fight Jim McDonald on his own, who definitely deserves his place at the top.

[@stevedavidson5038]

The older guys are definitely tougher to rank, being from a completely different era of the show. Len/Ken/Mike/Fred could have all been ranked higher or lower. David is nowhere near this list, he's had a few good showings but nothing noteworthy. I considered putting Jez on the list above Steve but he relied so heavily on intimidation and never did anything impressive as a hardman.

Thanks. Yeah, in reality a guy like Nathan would destroy a guy like Jim but it just didn't feel write putting a minor character like Nathan with such a lack of feats at #1. If we had seen more of Nathan, he could have been one of the toughest soap characters of all time.

[@EgoChip]

Soaps like Coronation Street have a lot to answer for, when these characters are so violent and commit multiple acts of assault, GBH and ABH, and rarely face criminal consequences. It sets a terrible example.

[@wiggywaggo9647]

The violence is a lot more frequent and graphic in modern episodes yet when it comes to words and political views, they try so hard to appear righteous. Strange what they prioritise when it comes to influencing society.

[@cryoraptora303tm2]

Pfft, it's pure escapism, stop being such a prude. Violence is part of being human and happens whether we like it or not. Soaps wouldn't be popular if people at large didn't want to see verbal and physical fights happening in an environment where it's staged and no one is actually getting hurt.

[@cryoraptora303tm2]

@@wiggywaggo9647 Half of these clips are from classic episodes. I would imagine the more graphic nature of the fights is purely down to improved choreography and viewer demand. Does modern Corrie use violence to build conflict more than it used to? Yes but that's just because modern Corrie is shit. It has nothing to do with some political agenda.

[@ritchie9709]

Roy’s not on the list?? 😮

What defines a great soap hardman, someone who has had lots of punch ups like Kevin or Gary or someone who on paper would beat everyone else like Rick or Tony

[@stevedavidson5038]

Considering I where Rick and Tony are on the list compared to Kevin and Gary, I would define this ranking as who would beat who in a 1v1. Although not having a lot of punch ups can affect the positioning.

I've honestly just realised how underatted Peter Barlow is. He has a decent amount of strength feats and some terrific punches.

Karl Munro? Les battersby?

[@stevedavidson5038]

Karl showed some potential but is massively held back by having hardly any feats, he didn't even throw a punch.
