Thoughts:  I really do hope that this is not the "official" list, since it is very odd that Linda is not nominated in the fav. character section!? *flipsthetable*

I am not satisfied with the list...or the voting system at all.  Personally think it would be better if the fav Characters are voted by the audience...which will make a lot more sense right?  Since being "favourite" also means highest popularity, which is obviously what it's going to be like....going to express more rage over at Tvb Horizon now :P
