in 1988, actor kevin kennedy who played curly watts in soap opera "coronation street", which was "eastenders"' biggest television rival, criticised the character of lofty. kennedy claimed that lofty was a direct copy of his character curly: "as far as i'm concerned, lofty was a straight lift. it really annoyed me when i saw it. lofty even had the same hairstyle and glasses as curly, he had the same caring but dithering nature. it was a perfect copy." curly first appeared in "coronation street" in 1983, just under two years before lofty first appeared in "eastenders" in 1985.
