Great to see the beginnings of one of the street's best comedy doubles here.. i.e. Bet & Alec! They're an odd couple but have to hand it to the writers putting Julie Goodyear & Roy Barraclough together.. it really works!
I'm starting to really dislike Terry and the way he treats Curly. He is a bully with the morals of an alley cat. I guess this is the start of what the scriptwriters/producers turned his character into.
Come on Mavis you got customers to serve natter natter on the phone ☎️ lol 😂 I love ❤️ the old days of coronation street, Thank you 🙏 for the upload 😊😊😊
I don't think Curly would have given the telescope money to Terry. He had a tongue in his head, and thought too much of Emily. Just a storyline I know, but I think he'd have paid off the telescope as a priority because it was important to him.
Sally: "It's a bit of a dump." Hilda should slap her! However, character consistency over the years has shown Sally is a judgemental snob. Well done Corrie!
I went to the national railway museum in York many years ago and the Steam railway museum in Swindon as well which I really enjoyed! One Christmas eve we had gone to York and had wanted to have gone to the castle museum so we had rung them up to ask were they open or not as Christmas eve is hit and miss if things are open or not and yes they were until 2 that day so off we had gone and had enjoyed it there! Outside when we were leaving about 2 there was a family there wanting to go in and got turned away as they had closed the doors at 2! Lesson in this is never assume things will be open even in good times!
Why in blazes did Mavis even start talking to a man who left her at the alter, and married someone else??! And why did she continue to talk to him, knowing he’s married, and how he must sneak around??! What’s wrong with her??! What woman in there right mind would??! Obviously Mavis is not one of those!!
I don't know about Sally, but I seen through a social media post that Audrey is still in it. How gullible brow beaten people could watch that programme since basically the death of Blanche is beyond me. But to also have put up with Audrey's ludicrous voice all that time is criminal 😂
Why did Curly bother going into that business with Terry in the first place? Terry is spot on about him, Curly is a dead loss. He even chucked steady full time employment and hasn't bothered taking any real interest in the gig.
Vera should be fired. Years ago. She never STFU. Constant yammering. I would fired her after his first lipping off. Never an ounce of gratitude for even having the job.
Those factory storylines are terminally dull and never end. Watch 80s episodes there are boring factory stories, watch the show in the 90s there are boring factory stories, 2000s, boring factory stories and on and on.
Ok, this isn’t making any sense. Jack plays piano, and Rita is a nightclub singer. Why not have Jack play the piano, and hire Rita for an evening, and see how it goes?!
So, Hilda has a washer, so how does she dry the clothes when it’s cold outside??! I have seen British flats with a washer but no dryer. Why don’t they have a dryer, and then how do they dry their clothes??!
@@rl7012 When you put wet clothes out on a clothesline they freeze! And I couldn’t imagine standing there in the freezing cold handling wet clothes! Your fingers would get frostbite in no time! And jeans on a clothesline, sometimes they come out feeling rough, like cardboard. I’d imagine they would just go to the laundry mat, instead of catching your death in freezing temps and bone chilling winds. Why don’t they have dryers?? What good is a washer without the dryer? And when you have a lot of wet clothes, it takes a lot of time to drag it all outside, then hang them all, then go back outside again to fetch them.
@@chicagogyrl4846 This was filmed in 1986 where a lot of people did not have dryers. A lot of people would hang up their washing inside by the fire or stove to dry as well. Also it doesn't get cold enough to freeze clothes very often in the Manchester area. Even in winter, it is rare for the weather to be so cold that clothes drying outside would freeze.
Audrey’s not doing anything to Gayle’s hair! It looks just the same that it did, minus the barrette! But Gayle doesn’t have anything else to do but to brush and comb Gayle’s hair! And Gayle certainly doesn’t look very seducing pregnant! 😂🤣
I’ll bet Guinness paid a fortune to be an option in the refurbished Rovers ! Wonder if they were actually drinking it whilst acting 😳🤔 ….always amuses me when they ask for a pint and the bartender automatically knows ‘of what’ …..🤷🏼♂️🍺
In UK do they not share everything Here In Connecticut everything is split evenly . Doesn’t Brian have to share the Garage a I belongs to both of them ?
2:35:52 1980s must have....Big plastic bangles to match the colours on your clothes....I remember it all too well 🤣
Love this .Thank you for uploading many a sleepless night isn't so bad now .
Thanks for these great uploads. Helps to watch them on a sleepless night! Thanks again.
Thank you again for having these historic episodes available.
I love corrie

Loved Bet and Alec after Jack and Vera
Sorry but I don't agree! Alec I always found to be terribly boring, but I always loved Bet and her earings and glamour clobber!
I hated alec
Gail smugly painting is enough to do my head in!
Totally agree it was hard to watch
She painted the same bit 4 times
Totally agree...so smug!!!
You do know they’re acting 😂
“ For ‘Cheap and Cheerful’ read ‘Skint and Miserable’!” 😂😂
Where the hell have Gail and Brian gone for a drink? The set of ‘Duty Free’ ?😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wish I had a pound for every time Brian says Flaming hell.
Gail would have gone off with Ian, if he had asked her and thought nothing of taking Nicky with her, leaving Brian with nothing.
I completely agree. Gail is a selfish cow.
And where did the washing up gloves gone !!
Brilliant acting! Vera and Jack should have done their lovely rendition of me and my shadow. Also, thank you for the uploads 😄😄😄😄
The missing episode is on d****motion. (if i say the name of the platform, YT delete the post).
Thank you! :)
Has anyone else noticed that when Terry is talking to someone he never looks at their eyes, it’s always the lower part of the face
Susan Barlows whiny voice gets on my nerves!
Well, I agree with you but Vera's voice sends shivers down my spine ... lol
.
Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺
Curly is frustrating. Why didn't he go and pay for the telescope? That way 'Terruh' would have to wind his neck in. Percy was right. Terruh is bully
Or tell RTerry that he'd paid it already.
Why should curly donate his $$ curly worked n supported terruble in that junk business yes Terrible is bully just like mommie
I was yelling at the screen don’t tell Terry about the money!
Gail and. Brian always had a slightly toxic relationship but can really feel the hate between them now, good acting 🎭
Gail is sooooo aggravating!
Come on Mavis you got customers to serve natter natter on the phone ☎️ lol 😂 I love ❤️ the old days of coronation street, Thank you 🙏 for the upload 😊😊😊

The cabaret in shell suit wind cheaters is the greatest moment in my life. That woman is a goddess triple threat!!
Was that you?
So Gail didn't want to inhale garage fumes but paint is OK. 🙄
Pretty sure she said wallpaper for the nursery.
I've just wrote the same thing. Lol
@tramainecovington9107 Looked to me like she was glossing the doorframes. Gloss back then would have been very fumey.
Gotta love Jack’s club style singing😂
Sally: "It's a bit of a dump." Hilda should slap her! However, character consistency over the years has shown Sally is a judgemental snob. Well done Corrie!
Hilda says to livin” up the place especially on the weeknights. No, you need to do that on Friday and Saturdays!
Bet and Brian now have the same hair!
I remember going to Jorvik just after it opened back in the 80s!
I went to the national railway museum in York many years ago and the Steam railway museum in Swindon as well which I really enjoyed!

Deidre's blue shirt really goes with her colouring. It looks lovely.
Where does the "Chinless Wonder" get off being so self righteous! What a right nippy sweetie she is.
Gail being controlling is a paradox as controlling people are the insecure ones driven by a deep seated sense of inferiority!
She has a cheek wanted Brian to bring up another man's child.
Mavis and Derek were an ideal couple!
Each as annoying as the other!
Pair of weedy drips
Excellent 👍👍
Why in blazes did Mavis even start talking to a man who left her at the alter, and married someone else??! And why did she continue to talk to him, knowing he’s married, and how he must sneak around??! What’s wrong with her??! What woman in there right mind would??! Obviously Mavis is not one of those!!
"Mum's telling me to live my life" LOL.
Great to see again.
Sally is like a young Audrey, a totally self centred, thoughtless, dizzy brat
I don't know about Sally, but I seen through a social media post that Audrey is still in it. How gullible brow beaten people could watch that programme since basically the death of Blanche is beyond me. But to also have put up with Audrey's ludicrous voice all that time is criminal 😂
I couldn’t have said it better ,and she gets worse with age , her oldest daughter becomes a brat as well , just like her mother Sally .
Sally’s fanciable though.
@@Alan-ss3xp aaaarghh!!
Terrys and curlys boots are spotless. 😂
"The day I was born Perry Commo turned white" Of course he did Jack 🤣🤣🤣
Bangers and mash at a Greek restaurant! He must think he’s at Rover’s! 😂🤣
Why did Curly bother going into that business with Terry in the first place? Terry is spot on about him, Curly is a dead loss. He even chucked steady full time employment and hasn't bothered taking any real interest in the gig.
Gayle said, “What was the second?” and Brian replied, “These bangers aren’t bad.” 😂🤣
1:58:20. The booth partition nearly goes arseways......Newton and Ridley and their cheap MDF....🙄
They removed it in 1988. Pointless thing.
I’ve never heard of a business person booking talent without seeing what they can do
How many times have Sally and Kevin upset Hilda
They didn’t spend any brass on the pub, their Insurance paid for it all! 😂🤣
Terry is just like mom n dad grifter
Vera should be fired. Years ago. She never STFU. Constant yammering. I would fired her after his first lipping off. Never an ounce of gratitude for even having the job.
Can't stand her.
Brilliant
Norman hair feather art 😅😅😅😅
I have no idea how you can have a pub with no music, or musical entertainment!
Wetherspoons
There's a touch of the Grim Reaper when Gail walks into the garage at 1:38:53
Brians pays the rent. But had to give the keys back as it was gails house ?
Gail she don’t want fumes from the garage, yet she can inhale nicotine and scent from paint. 😂😂
That Terry Duckworth was always a shady, selfish and frankly, nasty piece of work.
He's a real bully.
He was but I always thought he was a good addition to the show. They can't all be goody-goodies!
He actually wasn't "always" that way at all. Or haven't you watched the previous years before now?
Those factory storylines are terminally dull and never end. Watch 80s episodes there are boring factory stories, watch the show in the 90s there are boring factory stories, 2000s, boring factory stories and on and on.
This man spends more time at the Rover’s than his own pub!
1:07:08 Has Betty Turpin/Driver ever had a decent nights kip in her life? Gail, cleverly avoiding fumes at Brian's garage by staying at home painting.
Why did Gail have such an attitude towards Brian. She was the one who had an affair ffs! 🙄
Why is there all those people in the cabin??!
Miss Piggy and Kermit😅
Kevin showing off that torso 💪🏽
Ok, this isn’t making any sense. Jack plays piano, and Rita is a nightclub singer. Why not have Jack play the piano, and hire Rita for an evening, and see how it goes?!
Why is Betty talking about she was only working days? She was always there, morning and closing at night!
Wagon s roll Terry classic line
Mavis with the noisy kids LOL LOL
Cut off the back of a bunty comic 😂😂😂😂😂
So, Hilda has a washer, so how does she dry the clothes when it’s cold outside??! I have seen British flats with a washer but no dryer. Why don’t they have a dryer, and then how do they dry their clothes??!
They dry their clothes outside on the washing line. Cold does not stop clothes drying.

Why is Brian asking Gayle who she’s going out with? It’s none of his business!
Audrey’s not doing anything to Gayle’s hair! It looks just the same that it did, minus the barrette! But Gayle doesn’t have anything else to do but to brush and comb Gayle’s hair! And Gayle certainly doesn’t look very seducing pregnant! 😂🤣
Wow! Gayle started showing fast, didn’t she??! She looks although she’s 9 months pregnant already! 😂🤣
Vera you are miss piggy 1:28:22 here is dolly parton bet lynch yeah 😅
She does like that 😁😁😁 SU garden
The brewery where insured for the fire. And the rovers hasn't the room for a band or act. They haven't even got a pool table or juke box.
It gonna cost the brewery money to pay for a act. To have the same customers in there?
Poor Brian!! Gail is evil!!!!
Why doesn’t Kevin go and rent his own flat??!
Brian is so stupid! There is only a slim chance that the baby is Ian’s! He acts like it definitely is not his!
So does Hilda cook for and feed two people now??! 😂🤣
I’ll bet Guinness paid a fortune to be an option in the refurbished Rovers ! Wonder if they were actually drinking it whilst acting 😳🤔 ….always amuses me when they ask for a pint and the bartender automatically knows ‘of what’ …..🤷🏼♂️🍺
Here they are miss piggy and Kermit
Brian looks like he thinks he's Californian rather than Mancunian ... he's not a bit plausible as Ivy's son, or Gail's husband.
Terry was just horrible bully. Nothing likable about him at all.
Can't they stop shouting?
What on earth does ladies' man Mike see in that carping frump Susan?
Poor Gail is have a baby look larger the tum she got poor Gail aww Brian taking Nicky for no reason she help nick ot when he was older
What!?!?!?
@@ChristineNicholson-bk9jq we'll if you know the classic Muppets would be corrie 1986 SU garden
2:14:03 Cheeky cow.
Brian carbon copy of Ivy selfishness, bullyness
How?
Comedy Betty and bet 😅😅😅😅😅 1:07:19 1:07:23 😅😅😅😅 SU garden
Jenny Bradly thinks she sounds like the singer in the Rover's...NOT!!!
Divorces can’t be finalized while the wife is pregnant.
Can I ask you please 🙏 why is that because I’ve not heard of that before many thanks 🙏
That’s an American thing, this is Britain and no such law exists here. Typical American though thinking their laws apply to the whole world
In UK do they not share everything
Here In Connecticut everything is split evenly .
Doesn’t Brian have to share the Garage a I belongs to both of them ?
You're from the US? Bloody hell why didn't you mention it!?...
Yea, he should do, its 50/ 50 here as well luv. Unless, there was a prenup.
@@KuchiKopi179A prenup, they are ordinary people and it was the 1980s. Who had a prenup?
