ruth deller of entertainment website lowculture.co.uk criticises ramsay, citing his inclusion in the series as opportunistic, also stating: "ramsay was by far people's most loathed this month. brought in as a publicity stunt after the brand/ross affair and dropped shortly after, andrew sachs' ramsay was a rare example of an old man character being seen by fans as a ‘mary-sue’ (i.e. someone we’re supposed to think is wonderful but generally don’t – usually reserved for someone much younger). there was great rejoicing when he left this month, and hopefully the best mature cast in soap will soon recover from this minor blip."
