My late godmother, a bit part actress/extra appears in the scene where Alf & Audrey are dining at the Christmas do. I remember her telling me stories of the filming, thanks for these!!
I thank-you! thank-you! I work only 6months of the year in tourism in Croatia and the next 6mths I am addicted to the old episodes of coronation street. I don't watch any new episodes(2023). I am now 1992!
Bet is the star of the show! I always look forward to seeing her outfits, her hair, and especially her jewellery. The blouse and gold and ruby jewels on Christmas day were spectacular, not to mention her brilliant repartee. My other favourites are randy Reg and dippy Raquel.
I've lost track of how many people know about the Deirdre and Mike Baldwin affair. And its still being hushed up? Poor Tracy. I'm starting to get her wacked out mental state later on. She really never had a chance at a normal life.
@@denismoynihan4996 Some people seem quite definite that she had nothing to do with hairdressing, but I'm sure I have a memory of seeing her in a hairdressers, even if it was just temporary.
Originally, I started watching this series without all the older episodes giving the back stories. Now I understand all the residents much better, and also understand why I stopped watching it . Mostly because of the Tracy Barlow story line. It got much too depressing.
Once again the Corrie writers make the error of calling Alf Gails father in law - this time Carmel at 2:38:42. They did this on several occasions - why on Earth couldn't they get their heads around the fact Alf was actually Gail's stepfather?
I feel a bit sorry for Mavis sometimes. Its so obvious she considers Rita her best friend but as far as Rita is concerned her best friend is Bet and Mavis gets a few crumbs of attention if she is lucky. Mavis is actually the one who supported Rita the most during the Alan saga and was the only one who was worried when Rita vanished. She also holds the shop together whenever Rita fancies taking time off.
Not only that, but Rita is a bad person all round. When Bet is about to lose the Rovers a few years after this (1995, I think), Rita basically leaves her in the crap and lets her disappear without even seeing if she is okay.
@@AriAdu Yes, Alf was emotionally vulnerable after Renee’s death and Audrey was a looker - eye candy on the arm of a city councillor. Good script writing. 👍🏽
Raquel and Phyllis are hysterical in the charades scene 🤣 Wonder if the ladies weren’t told what she was miming til they went for the take 🤷♂️ You forget that the Christmas Day eps were probably recorded about late October so it might be tricky for the cast to act all jolly and festive unless their characters are actually having a fun time, and depending on the number of takes required, having to sit and eat several Christmas dinners at like 8.30am lol 😂
Ummmm we all saw the episodes with Maggie. She decided to leave Mike when he said NO to giving her $5000 for her flower shop and the old man she ended up marrying would give her the money. After that, she got depressed and angry and convinced herself it was about anything but that money. It WAS about the money. Mike said no, the other guy said yes. She was selling herself and her child for $5000 and I’m sick of hearing her, on her high horse, say otherwise. It makes me crazy
Wayne, Kimberley, Hanif, Angie, Neil, Denise ... the quality of characters starts to nose-dive about this time. Curly was much more likeable in the early days, when he was on the bins, and lodging with Emily.
I remember watching this shop on a Sunday night when I was younger and me and my brother s and sisters were All excited about Santa come with our gift s and mam and dad down in the kitchen getting the dinner ready for the next day I was only 8 year old did not sleep a wake that night when I see this program it broth a tire too my eyes my child hood days worr the Happy's time of my life God bless ye all and stay safe and be there for one a nother family is everything in the hard time
I always find it strange how no one on this street can visit their families at Christmas. They are all going around looking for a place to go. Why doesn't Curly go to his parents and likewise with Des?
Wondering if Ken and Deidre will ever notice that Tracy has zero empathy for anyone. Her attitude to being asked not to reveal that Baldwin is Mark's father is disgusting.
3:14:30 The arcade machine noises are from the Williams Electronics Classic "Defender" That cabinet is 100% not a Defender cabinet, as Defender had specific controls and couldnt be shoehorned into a generic cabinet....
They're all alcoholics! Remember the earlier episodes when the factory women would go drink alcohol at lunch then go back to work industrial machinery! 😂
Some script writing errors in this month. .. At - 41.30 Deirdre looks surprised and shocked when she sees maggie ,as though she remembered her from when she was with Mike Baldwin,and yet she had never seen her before. .. And later Ken is horrified about finding out Maggie was with Mike,.. although he actually met Maggie with Mike at least once ,.. like here in this episode July 12th 1982,at -8.58. .. th-cam.com/video/PrgTaArRIt8/w-d-xo.html .. Plus they say his son Mark is 11,..and he can only be 9 here in Dec 1992,...as he was born around the middle of 1983
Sally's such a beautiful girl and a truly natural actress. I love her scenes especially with Kevin. They're well matched and when Hilda was around it was great. I miss Hilda. Maggie's hair!!! I think she should make a trip to Denise's asap.
Oh that Tracey. Such a lovely young lady. And so advanced. She could give Vera and Ivy, a run for their money, in the loveliness department. My fondest wish, is that her loveliness continues to grow, and recognized as a source of pride, for the residents of Coronation street, just like Vera and Ivy's loveliness. They're all so lovely. Oh aye, just fucking lovely.
Are you comparing teenage Tracey Barlow’s looks with two grandmothers? If you meant her disposition, she is a force to be reckoned with and not in a nice way, trust me.
It’s funny how big mouth Deidre couldn’t keep her mouth shut when she just had to tell Mike his eldest son, now she’s lecturing Tracey about being quiet.
@@soniaclarkstewart What year was this? I'm not very familiar with what went on, past 1995, or whenever the Battersbys came on the scene. Up till now, I just go back to the mid 70's and begin again. This is the first time I've managed to come this far. And, I must say, I'm not really enjoying it. Cheers!
Ken's eyesight must be failing him as he's getting older. Driving up to Maggie's house, full headlights on and He didn't see Mike's car parked right front of The house. Strange that 🤔
Isn’t it the guy who can be heard in the background on the phone during Curly & Des’s scene after he hangs up? Does sound strange with him not in shot though!
I dont think i ever saw these 1992 episodes of Corrie, way back. However i know ive seen the actress who plays Carmel but i don't know from where! I dont watch much tv much & havent done so for a long time so i cant puzzle out where ive seen "Carmel" she must have been in some other tv programme but i really cant remember If anyone knows id be pleased to know, its so frustrating trying to remember a persons face & placing into context I keep thinking of a tv series called Angels, about nurses & this was probably around the late 1980s or early 1990s Problem is, i think i only ever watched 2 episodes, not long enough to fix someones face & accent in my recollections! Cheers 🇬🇧👧
She made her professional debut in Brendan Behan's play The Hostage before making her television debut in the BBC series Doctor Who in 1987. Part of a famous acting family, she is the daughter of Cyril Cusack and half sister of Niamh, Sinead and Sorcha Cusack - who also appeared in the programme in the role of Helen Connor in 2008. Other TV and film credits include roles in Sophia and Constance, The Chief, The Bill, Cadfael, Ballykissangel, Boxed, Conspiracy of Silence, Jonathan Creek, Finding Neverland and Doctors, whilst on stage she has also performed in King Lear, Now Is The Hour, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Agnes Of God, You Never Can Tell, The Seagull, Brighton Rock, The Glass Menagerie and Mill on the Floss.
@@alimo1611 Thank you so kindly to have replied with a plethora of information! Yes, it was Ballykissangel where i know her face from! But i didn't know her name yet thought i knew all of Cryril Cusacks family but she must have been born much later that her famous sisters! So now a name, Helen Connor, to the face! A very pretty, Irish face too Many kind regards 🇬🇧👧
2:02:00 what is she mad at mike for?!?!? For being banned from seeing his own child?? The one he was desperate to know? The one he WANTED to be a father to? He tried EVERYTHING to be a father to Mark. Why on earth is Derdrie mad at mike because Ken holds a childish obsessive grudge against mike? It makes less than no sense. She is ridiculous I’m about to give up on Corrie at this point and go back to the beginning. Back when it was good, made sense and wasn’t filled with messaging on the trendy social issue of moment. This is supposed to be an entertaining show not a public service announcement. The messaging is heavy handed and obvious and is ruining the show. (I ended up on a completely different topic than I started on. Oops, I went on a little rant) One more thing….lens keeps saying mike “tried to take Derdrie from him” ummm, she is not a toy. He wasn’t trying to take something from you, Ken. He loved a married woman and wanted to marry her himself. He cared NOTHING about Ken. His love for Derdrie was nothing to do with Ken. On the other hand, Ken is obsessed with Mike. His obsession rules his entire life. It’s pathetic, sad and gross
Mike Baldwin is such an arrogant creep. He doesn't give 2 hoots about his son, or Alma, he is more bothered about getting one over on Barlow and obsessing over what he can't have.
Does anyone know the real life street name for the Hortons address(supposedly in Blackpool) about 3 hours and 54 minutes in. I'm fascinated in filming locations and I live near Blackpool if anyone knows what street it is I'd be grateful.
Mike Baldwin acting surprised at discovering his son's existence. Just like he sid a few years earlier when he was married to Susan Barlow and Susan used Mark Redman as a model for her kids clothing business?
That bunny boiler woman is creepy, good casting. Also, Bet and Rita's hairs look ridiculous, heck Bet has a good head of natural hair, why ruin it by adding that ginormous tuft of fake hair, Rita and her wig just look off. I mean with their money and "fashion" sense, you would think they would have tried. Lisa's front tooth and choppy bangs are so distracting 😅
I'm confused about Lisa's tooth, I wouldn't have thought it was how her teeth naturally formed, maybe its from a bad dental surgery. Carmel makes me shudder, 100% creepy 😳
Oh shut up Vera! Lisa seen right through Terry. Why is it in Corrie, that they all know each other, but when talking to other characters it’s never Des, it’s Des Barnes🤣 it’s so odd, I mean how many Des/Rita’s do they know?🤣 maybe it’s a northern thing🤷♂️
Someone commented that new hairdresser Denise was like Elsie Tanner, looks, character etc They werent wrong! But i think the producers knew exactly why Denise would fit in to Corrie! Shes a carbon copy of Elsie! Id guess the viewing figures of Corrie were already failing by this time! Steph had left Dez so no more fireworks there Terry Duckers in the nick so the Bad Lad of Corrie is out of the picture Mike has settled down with Alma Deirdre & Ken have ironed things out & are friends The MacDonalds are so so Mave & Derek are old hat No trauma for Rita Alec has gone, Bett reverts to her pre Alec days Audrey is behaving herself Kev & Sal are boring Curley & Ange are...? So all in all, its getting abit staid Characters are becoming predìctable so the storywriters Are trying to inject life back into the show! They probably looked back over past episodes when ratings were sky high & found Elsie was the biggest draw Enter Denise.. I know the outcome of Denise due to an other programne showing Kens relationships But i think the rot started to set in the latter half of 1992 & really from now to 2000 when i stopped watching it just went limp boring & miserable with terrible characters, no humour & bad acting. So sad. Cheers 🇬🇧👧
I SWEAR they all met her when Mike was with her. They were together for a long time. They went into the Rovers all the time. I’m going to go back and watch those episodes. I am almost 100% they all knew and met many times
"Father-in-law" in regards to Alf and Gail is incredibly bad continuity mistakes not picked up several times! Surely the actors themselves would have seen the gloriously huge mistake? 🤔
My late godmother, a bit part actress/extra appears in the scene where Alf & Audrey are dining at the Christmas do. I remember her telling me stories of the filming, thanks for these!!
Awww, bless her ❤
That's a cool memory to have.

Ken Barlow and Mike Baldwin have the best feud in British Soap History!!
I've lost track of how many people know about the Deirdre and Mike Baldwin affair. And its still being hushed up? Poor Tracy. I'm starting to get her wacked out mental state later on. She really never had a chance at a normal life.
it's probably the longest too
A true soap opera needs births,deaths ,break ups and weddings. Conflict and heart break are the cherry on the cake! Throw in comedy and its a winner!❤
Thank you for putting these up Eve Henley , it’s great to reminisce and times seemed a little less frazzled !!
I've been binge watching the past 5 weeks from late 70s up to here so far - as it's a much less complicated world back then.
Jack made me laugh “I’m sorry you married him Lisa” jack got it right for once!
I think that Carmel is so creepy!
Thank you for sharing your video
Poor old Ken. It seems that nearly every woman he dates, Mike Baldwin has already dipped his wick.🤣🤣🤣
Denise Osborne bring her on.
A very moving piece of dialogue that Jack said to Lisa. So genuine and. Heartfelt. Thanks Eve
Bill Tarmey was fantastic as Jack ❤
@@antoinettehowes6964 he was indeed, and still I miss his character.
Could never fathom what women ever saw in Ken Barlow... too smug and smarmy.
He is sickening. That grin of his makes me want to heave!
Smug git.
Yea but he soon stops smiling, when he finds out that he's been seeing Mike's Ex 😱
What about the horrible Reg Holdsworth? Sad thing is he is like that in real life
She is AWFUL as well! Maggie is a demon. Most of the women under 50 on this show are absolutely horrible.
'Denise' reminds me of Elsie Tanner, her attitude, hair, even her face somewhat, could be Elsie's daughter! They're both hairdressers as well.
I didn't know Elsie had been a hairdresser
Nor me. Didn’t she work in Miami Modes?
Neither Elsie Tanner or Linda Cheveski were hairdressers!!
Wasn't Elsie a manager in a hairdresser where Ken's first wife Val worked ?
@@denismoynihan4996 Some people seem quite definite that she had nothing to do with hairdressing, but I'm sure I have a memory of seeing her in a hairdressers, even if it was just temporary.

I'd like to know what drugs Mavis is on! 😂
Martin and Raquel should team up together as Martin doesn't know how to lace up footwear and Raquel doesn't know what an own goal is.🤣
A rear moment of tenderness from Jack and Vera, when Tommy left 😢
Martin used to go through me 30 years ago and it hasn’t changed. So annoying 😡😡😡
He's coming back to the new episodes. just for you Jo
He's borefest like
Bill Webster was his character was mind numbing in Coronation
In 80s 90s 00s🥱
you can tell what year these were made by the songs they play in the background in the cafe etc hahaha
I love the songs 👏
I noticed in the 80s episodes, Stock, Aitken & Waterman must have been big sponsors/ product placement as all the artists played were theirs. 🍻🇦🇺✨️🥃
One of the biggest mysteries in this show is how on earth does Martin Platt manage to make so many ladies knickers damp?
🤣🤣
I think it's all the sexy mouth noises he makes instead of actually talking.
The cod father 😂😂
It's his humor
Mike should never have allowed this broad to keep him from seeing his son. Hopefully his son will know the truth.
Audrey is so disrespectful of Alf
Always. Glad to see other people notice. It bothers me when people act like she is an angel and Alf is somehow the problem?!
The character of Alf should definitely been portrayed as having severe self conscious issues to have put up with such a bastard of a woman.
She treats him like second class person or a slave.nasty piece of work. Also a gold digger.
Alf knew what kind of woman Audrey was before he married her. I do feel for the actor having to come to work only to be fat shamed.
@@AriAdu Yes, Alf was emotionally vulnerable after Renee’s death and Audrey was a looker - eye candy on the arm of a city councillor. Good script writing. 👍🏽

Oh shut up Vera! Lisa seen right through Terry. Why is it in Corrie, that they all know each other, but when talking to other characters it’s never Des, it’s Des Barnes🤣 it’s so odd, I mean how many Des/Rita’s do they know?🤣 maybe it’s a northern thing🤷♂️
Someone commented that new hairdresser Denise was like Elsie Tanner, looks, character etc
They werent wrong!
But i think the producers knew exactly why Denise would fit in to Corrie!
Shes a carbon copy of Elsie!
Id guess the viewing figures of Corrie were already failing by this time!
Steph had left Dez so no more fireworks there
Terry Duckers in the nick so the Bad Lad of Corrie is out of the picture
Mike has settled down with Alma
Deirdre & Ken have ironed things out & are friends
The MacDonalds are so so
Mave & Derek are old hat
No trauma for Rita
Alec has gone, Bett reverts to her pre Alec days
Audrey is behaving herself
Kev & Sal are boring
Curley & Ange are...?
So all in all, its getting abit staid
Characters are becoming predìctable so the storywriters
Are trying to inject life back into the show!
They probably looked back over past episodes when ratings were sky high & found Elsie was the biggest draw
Enter Denise..
I know the outcome of Denise due to an other programne showing Kens relationships
But i think the rot started to set in the latter half of 1992 & really from now to 2000 when i stopped watching it just went limp boring & miserable with terrible characters, no humour & bad acting.
So sad.
Cheers

....give them a piece of my mind (i wouldnt, petal, for one thing you can't spare it)
Looks desolate in Blackpool with that wind 🌬️
God, Ken is awful. Standing with his arms out. Maggie should have chased him.
How is Mark ANY business of Ken's?
What a poor, weak, feeble excuse for a man Ken Barlow is.
Sanctimonious git 😅
Does anyone think Neil the builder looks a bit like Liam Payne.
I dont understand this
Ken already knew that Mike was the Father to Maggie's son, years ago
Jack was right about Terry
The actors who played Jack and Vera fantastic stuff ❤❤
I Agree Mike Baldwin
Does anyone know, I just can't remember, doesn't Ken know that Maggie used to date Mike?
No it appears he’s none the wiser of that fact at this stage - Deirdre knows though (all about Mark too), as will become clear later on.
@@EveHenleySpread Hey Eve, indeed, until 2:06:00, oh dear!! Have a great weekend x
I SWEAR they all met her when Mike was with her. They were together for a long time. They went into the Rovers all the time. I’m going to go back and watch those episodes. I am almost 100% they all knew and met many times
Every person has their good and un-good characteristics, same as real life people
How did Mike twig mark was his son nobody told him he just knew who he was in the cafe
Was it not through talking with Nicky in the cafe x
Yeah probably right enough thanks
He'd met him a few years back.
Yeahi know like hes had like 4 birds since diedere as if in real.lufe hed still be tossing off on his own xx
Yes, Carmel is the creepy nanny from hell....but Gail is so horrid that I'm rooting for bad things to happen to her.
"Father-in-law" in regards to Alf and Gail is incredibly bad continuity mistakes not picked up several times! Surely the actors themselves would have seen the gloriously huge mistake? 🤔
Denise is creepy n mean of all ppl
