With Issue 10 a survey was included, asking readers about their favourite performers in various roles.<br /><br />In 1994, Peter Karrie and Claire Moore were voted the favourite Phantom and Christine. In the second poll, Peter Karrie was the favourite Phantom, with Michael Crawford in second place. Claire Moore was the favourite Christine, with Sarah Brightman, Lisa Hull and Nikki Ankara joint second. Simon Burke and Mike Sterling were the favourite Raouls.<br /><br />These polls were conducted by collection written responses, not email or web sites (where it is far easier to vote many times!).<br />
