We all feel the same I watch it out of habit but my god it’s not this clever and we’ll written it was so wonderful back then and my god what wonderful memories ❤️
What id do to the back to the 80s, everything was just amazing. I hate life now. Trip back down memory lane day, bitter as i want to go back sweet havng these memories
I love coronation street bring back the good old days they don't make them like that too day I remember watching this TV show with my mam on a Sunday night and mam backing apple 🍎 pie and we sat down in front of the TV with a cuppa our favorite was Jack and vera I miss does times stay safe and cod bless young and old b
@@bsaunders5271 I've often thought the same happened with Terry. If things had worked out with the mother of his child, he might have been a different character. Still, we need some bad boys in the Street.
I was shocked to see what a sucker she was! Her self-esteem must have been in shreds after Len cheated and then died. And Alan knew just how to exploit her weak spots.
Charlie is a terrible actor, but it beats me what the writers were thinking! Bet as always saved the day. The Alan and Rita disaster is hotting up, can't wait!
I vaguely remember Charlie boring the pants off Betty that Bet stepped in & told Alec he had to go. Yes, the Alan/Rita deceit is what's keeping my attention.
Fantastic episodes, I've already subscribed. Mid-late 1980s were the peak of Corrie excellence for me. Also "Cheerful" (depressing) Charlie Bracewell - wasn't he Dennis Dunstable's drunken father in Please Sir! ?
I wasn't yet four years old at this time and I could not understand why Alan would be lying about his surname and why the adults around me were shocked. It wasn't until about 1998 that I saw the earlier episodes and saw he was trying to forge Len's name
@alfwilson8997 I gather (from reading Lynne Perrie’s book) that she was finally feeling comfortable acting with Geoff Hinsliff towards the end.. when she was summoned upstairs and sacked. A bit of a shame but her character had probably ran it’s course (as had Dons tbf).
@@EveHenleySpreadInteresting. I'm on my third episode of this month and it's absolutely flown by. Pure drama laced with very black northern humour. I think Corrie worked best when it played to its strengths: A soap opera about the trials and tribulations of common or garden Lancashire folk. I doubt any of the current cast of producers would even recognise old school Corrie. Too busy including as many explosions and as much woke propaganda as possible
Don knew what he was getting involved in with the card game with mike, alan and jack, if he'd won, he would have won £1000 from mike, he didnt and mike held him to the rules don insisted on.
What a era great year for Uk🇬🇧 Tv📺📼🎬 1989-Early90s Corrie on fantastic form EastEnders and Emmerdale with the Tates on the rise, The Bill Inspector Morse, Boon, Birds Of A Feather, Lovejoy Doctor Who With Ace, The Mighty James Whale On the up 👍📺📻🌠With his Tv and Radio shows And over the Pond🇺🇲 Al Bundy Married With Children, Roseanne, Cheer's
Watching these years later I've realised that Mike Baldwin and Ken Barlow deserve each other, two disgusting characters forever locked into bitter battles and I have no sympathy for either of them
If I was Don, I would've just said sod off to Mike after getting the keys back. There's nothing legally binding to make him pay, however when he signed that IOU, that was it.
Don was foolish, he was out of his depth with the money Baldwin was putting on the table. He took a risk, failed and now tries to weasel out of his debt. Fast forward slightly and the boot was on the other foot (not a pun at Don’s expense) when he won several hundred £ off Phil Jennings at Poker. Then, Don’s attitude was very different.
Don was foolish, but he knew the score, Mike could afford the money, Don was advised to stop, but didn't, he offered his car keys as a bet and lost. Mike was right to expect his money.
The current one is not like the old ones at all .The Cult storyline puts me of watching it and been watching it since I was 7 or 8 .But not for much longer if it carrys on .
Try a channel called Auntie Corrie, she uploads all the old black & white & coloured episodes from 1960 onwards, 70s & 80s Im sure many are from the 1968 Cheers 🇬🇧👧
After 50 years of not seeing Coronation Street I sat down to watch the current series and I’ve got to say it’s not a patch on those episodes made in the sixty’s, the sixty’s episodes were funny they made you laugh but the current series are drab there is no laughter everything is desperate, it’s all about relationships now and not good ones either, I’m sorry but that’s how I see it.
I agree with comments about Charlie, a very odd choice for the normally brilliant scriptwriters on Corrie! Someone must have having a brainstorm!!! I cant work out what kind of accent he has! First its a Lancashire one, next Cockney next either Welsh or Irish And he swops these regional twangs mid sentence! Im afraid Charlie was a No No choice for Corrie & its company of amazing actors. A dud, a dead duck, a joke? Someone in the scriptwriters depts old Dad ? Uncle ? A spot of nepotism?? Lol 😆 Cheers 🇬🇧👧
No idea really.. perhaps they decided that was as far as they were prepared to go back with this run of repeats. It was in colour since the late 60s I think. When the cable channel Granada Plus started to show repeats in the 90s they began with Elsie Tanner’s return in April 1976… hence the reason so much of it is now on TH-cam, anything prior to that is pretty sparse - just odd episodes that were released on the DVDs.
Maybe yeah! I think it’s generally recognised by a lot of Corrie fans that the Podmore era (1976-84 especially) was the golden age.. me anyway! I absolutely love the mix and humour and drama he brought to the show! All this 90s era I’ve uploaded doesn’t do much for me.. I think it gradually gets worse as the years go by… less light hearted stuff, more Eastenders style high drama.. not my thing at all!
Alan Bradley (Stage name Mark Eden, born Douglas John Malin) is in his very early 60s in these episodes. I, think he looks way younger than his years. His off screen wife Sue Nicholls is/was the daughter of a Lord. Well I never. Interesting trivia to some. Response to video only.
Wow he looked very good for his age. I didn't belive you and I looked it up he died 2021 and was 92. Didn't look 92 either. So you are correct. Hope I look as good has he did in my 60s!! He could easily pass for being in his 40s hear x
Sort of feel Gail & Brian’s apparent return to unhappiness was a bit out of the blue! Very sudden. No doubt to facilitate his exit at sorter notice than may have been preferred.
You've Missed out an episode from January 1989. The end of the third one Charlie was helping Betty on with her coat. Then the next one they had fallen out after something he had done. The Two Episodes don't add up with the story 🤔
Well unfortunately TH-cam occasionally blocks certain episodes for copyright reasons.. whether it be because a certain song is playing in the background etc. Thankfully I managed to get away with that for the majority of the run I uploaded without this happening much.. but yes, my first video was missing 2 episodes! Sorry about that.. it's a miracle that ITV haven't removed the whole lot by now, it's been 3 years.. they do monetise the videos now though, hence the adverts!
Not making any excuses for Kevin as I think it's absolutely ridiculous but it's the way he was brought up. When Kevin first appeared in Corrie he was either molly coddled by his sister Debbie, Emily Bishop and Hilda Ogden! He expected it. 🤷🏻♀️
What happened between Betty and Charlie one min they are ok then arguing?! Kevin is just a waste of skin where he can’t make his own tea or do the ironing
Think his Mum died young and from then on his Dad and him treated his sister as a skivvy doing just about everything for them. Only from what I remember from the episodes on guns channel.
In a previous episode, shocked that Mike Baldwin handed car keys to taxi back to Don Brennan, before getting him to sign IOU. Also shocked Mike handed IOU back to Ivy and didn't open envelope to count money inside first. Least tis only fiction. Response to video only.
Bet- "So what happened to old Albie then? "Picked a bad moment to hiccup?" Bet is so funny with her one liners, delivered deadpan... Some of the storylines are really boring... Alan is such a slimeball, he's beneath contempt. And Kevin should be told it's 1989 and not 1959! All he thinks about is being fed. Can't stand him...
I haven’t watched coronation street for 10 years - but if it was as good as this I would 😀
We all feel the same I watch it out of habit but my god it’s not this clever and we’ll written it was so wonderful back then and my god what wonderful memories ❤️
Seems to be a lot less dialogue in me Corrie. Also less focused on the Rovers which always looks empty ! ?
Rubbish these days
I haven’t watched it for longer. From snippets I’ve seen, today’s version is utter ****.
Sadly, this Corrie was unique for the quality of the cast.
The stone cladding- "Eh Jack our very own stone cottage here on Coronation st, knock a few eyes out round here will that" 🤣
Kevin. Mr Sensitive. All he thinks about is whether his tea or dinner is ready.
I always thought Sally could do a lot better than some oily, whinging grease monkey like Kev.
And shouting all the time! Wish someone would have given him a razor as that moustache makes him look like a 70s porn star! 😂
Quite sad when you see people stood around the bar that are no longer with us 😢
1989 - a year when you could buy two Hot Pots, a round of drinks and a bag of pork scratchings for £1.
Not really, a pint of lager was already up to around 80/90p by this time, i'm afraid.
What id do to the back to the 80s, everything was just amazing. I hate life now. Trip back down memory lane day, bitter as i want to go back sweet havng these memories
Baldwin was a real slippery character played brilliantly by Johnny Briggs and fascinating to see the old street before the redevelopment.
Mike was a great character. Had a compassionate side to him as well as slippery lol 😂
Baldwin wasn’t much better than Bradley
Thank you for these episodes 👍👍
Jesus Bet and Alec were pure comedy gold!!! Never laughed as much! Better than therapy 😆
The current day street doesn’t have a patch on 1970/80 street
The street stopped being as good as this at the turn of the millennium
So true it’s still popular but my god not as good as this at all ❤️
@@rickyodriscoll9729 👍
The 90s was good for Corrie also Crap now to woke like all telly these days👎
100% truth
Thankyou so nice to see old characters much appreciated
Why can Kevin not make his own tea? Hes a grown man 😂
🤣
Cars are easy, cookers are difficult.
A very short grown man
Kev would whinge anyway.
That occurred to me…I was in my twenties when this was broadcast and can’t believe there was so much sexism around in my lifetime.
I used to watch the Street all thru the '80s. I look forward to seeing all you share so I can watch those I missed!
Fantastic era Corrie
My fav era Coronation Street 1988 1990s to 2002,
I love coronation street bring back the good old days they don't make them like that too day I remember watching this TV show with my mam on a Sunday night and mam backing apple 🍎 pie and we sat down in front of the TV with a cuppa our favorite was Jack and vera I miss does times stay safe and cod bless young and old b
Thank you so much!
Thanks so so much
53:45 good to see Kevin jump to help when told their dad was in crash and in hospital. He said nothing then ate his lunch. Loving guy 😳📺
The Rover's really was a tiny back street pub, Stella's pub is beautiful.
Who’s Stella?

Thankyou so much!! .. SO happy I found your channel xx
Good video and audio quality
I love Bet.
Cook your own tea, Kevin, you nob.
Following his experience with Susan, Mike has become a lot more cold and hard.
I think Dierdre's rejection a few years earlier started the rot with Baldwin, then Susan's treatment of him sealed his fate as a baddie.
@@bsaunders5271 I've often thought the same happened with Terry. If things had worked out with the mother of his child, he might have been a different character. Still, we need some bad boys in the Street.
Alec is very funny😂
The only reason, speaking for myself, to watch it is its the funniest show around after they quit wasting on drama and relationships.
I feel bad for Rita because she is a good person and didn't need Alan.
I was shocked to see what a sucker she was! Her self-esteem must have been in shreds after Len cheated and then died. And Alan knew just how to exploit her weak spots.
She had ample warning, and chose to ignore them. Including Alan playing away.
That should have put the tin-lid on it.
@@ddrose06 agreed, how many warning flags did that woman need!
Rita was bored and lonely. A dangerous combination for anyone.
Brilliant
"I've nowt in for dinner Don."
Charlie is a terrible actor, but it beats me what the writers were thinking! Bet as always saved the day. The Alan and Rita disaster is hotting up, can't wait!

40 years of Kevin shouting

Small man sindrome

Love your videos m8 mebe come to Barry Island 1 day loads party time there can I shout out again from Cardiff
Why do we NEVER see the front rooms of the houses?
Interesting to see the early signs of the feud between Don and Mike Baldwin that would ultimately result in Don's death eight years later.
Underrated feud. I think both Don and Ivy would have gone down in Corrie history if Lynne Perrie hadn't left under such a cloud
@alfwilson8997 I gather (from reading Lynne Perrie’s book) that she was finally feeling comfortable acting with Geoff Hinsliff towards the end.. when she was summoned upstairs and sacked. A bit of a shame but her character had probably ran it’s course (as had Dons tbf).
