Coronation Street serial killer Richard Hillman has been voted the top soap villain of all time.
Tricky Dicky beat off stiff competition from Dallas' JR Ewing and Phil Mitchell from EastEnders in a poll which rated baddies according to the wickedness of their crimes.
Millions of TV viewers have been gripped by Hillman's antics over the past few months.
He murdered Maxine, bludgeoned Emily with a crowbar, killed ex-wife Tricia with a shovel to the head and left business partner Duggie to die.
An audience of 17.5 million tuned in last week to see him finally confess his crimes to shocked wife, Gail.
But his reign of terror has not ended yet - Hillman, played by Brian Capron, heads back to Weatherfield this week.
He takes his family on a terrifying drive which ends with their car plunging into the local canal.
In the TV Times poll compiled by a panel of experts, JR Ewing was second and EastEnders hard man Phil Mitchell third.
Fourth was Trevor Jordache, who ended up buried under the patio in Brookside Close.
Only two women make the list. Emmerdale's Kim Tate, who taunted husband Frank into having a heart attack, then watched him die.
And Cindy Beale, whose crimes in Albert Square included hiring a hitman to kill husband Ian.
