List of Doctors characters introduced in 2010

Charlie Bradfield (Philip McGough) makes his first appearance in January, with Elaine Cassidy (Janet Dibley) joining in August.

Ag Penrose (Lynda Baron), the aunt of Rob Hollins (Chris Walker), begins appearing in November and in December, Barry Bamford (David Gant) debuts as a friend of Julia's.

Charlie is disliked at the Mill Health Centre due to his sexist, homophobic and racist views.

[2] For his portrayal of Charlie, McGough received a nomination for Villain of the Year at the British Soap Awards.

[7] Not long after the announcement of the spin-off episodes, Daniel Kilkelly of Digital Spy confirmed that Dibley's character Elaine would leave Doctors at the conclusion of the Harrison storyline.

In 2011, he tries to kill Heston Carter (Owen Brenman), but Elaine Cassidy (Janet Dibley) hits him over the head with a fire extinguisher.

It becomes known that she is not liked by the female members of the Hollins family; Imogen (Charlie Clemmow) and Karen (Jan Pearson), but is very popular with her nephew, Rob (Chris Walker) and great-nephew Jack (Nicholas Woodman).

She frequently attacks Karen and Imogen with her rude comments, but they bite their tongues as Rob and Ag are very close.
