Lynne Perry was a fantastic actress. Brilliant in Coronation Street but first saw her in the movie Kes. She deserved an award for that performance. Rest in Peace ❤
The current Corrie is very stage like. Salon always has one or no clients. Never a hairdryer on the go. Pub with no more than ten people inside. Two customers max in the shop. No background noise or chatter anywhere. So unrealistic and not enough to keep any business running. These Classic Corries are so much better with more enjoyable characters too. Thanks Eve ❤
Thanks Eve, for taking the time & effort to put these up - made my X'mas ! I often hear talk about, _a lack of female role models on TV_ - but classic Corrie was full of them. I'm a bloke, but grew up admiring & respecting the strong women of The Street far more than any of the male characters: they taught me to be straight talking when needed, to keep my counsel and to hold onto my sense of humour - even in adversity. Those of us who were lucky enough to grow up in the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's owe an awful lot to Hilda (Ogden), Bet (Lynch/Gilroy) and Rita (Fairclough/Sullivan) - my 3 favs. Happy New Year !
You’re very welcome Sean, I’m glad you’re enjoying watching these oldies.. hard to believe it’s thirty odd years ago now, where did the time go! You’re right about the strong women of the street though as of course originally as Tony Warren put it - it was based around 3 strong women… the ultimate snob (Annie Walker), the tart with a heart (Elsie Tanner) and the devil incarnate (Ena Sharples). I don’t think any characters they came afterwards made the impact that those 3 did, except possibly the lady in my thumbnail picture.. Elizabeth Theresa Lynch, she just grew and grew as the show went on. Thanks for your nice comments!
@@EveHenleySpread I was a little bit too young to fully appreciate Mrs. Walker, Elsie and Ena. By the time I was truly bitten by the Corrie bug (mid 70's) they were already entering their twilight years. I do remember them all, but it was the dry Northen wit and twinkle in the eye of Hilda, Bet & Rita that made them stand out for me. Your uploads are especially precious for me. I left the UK in 1989 so I am now seeing for the very first time everything that I missed. As I get deeper into the 90's I know that I am coming to the end of the Golden Years. Quality rather than quantity was what made Coronation Street special, and going head to head against Eastenders was an unfortunate though, perhaps, inevitable battle. Like so many things in this life, the lurch from the analogue world into the digital era did not ncessarily herald a better dawn. Huge thanks again for making it possible for me to take a little trip down the cobbled street.
Oh you’re very welcome Sean once again, I’m too young to remember those 3 ladies I mentioned too.. BUT thanks to TH-cam I have seen that late 70s period you talk about - which to me is probably the best Corrie era (when Bill Podmore took over in 1976 he added the comedy.. which was so brilliant, it stands the test of time). I just carried on from ‘89 onwards as people were asking for it but yes you do get the impression the quality is gradually diminishing… I’ve reached ‘97 now myself, it’s not great to be honest BUT there was plenty of fun on the way! Anyway.. thanks again for your kind words! Really appreciate it! 😉
If you're left a will, you're entitled, never feel guilty. Never feel pressured by family. As for Ivy, an intervention was needed, she needed help just like Emily.
That was sweet of Curly to see Ivy home. It’s sad to see her struggling and sad no matter what. Just the fact that she lost hubby and son is devastating. I know she brought things upon herself.
That’s why they have no money. Most people with no money have bad habits and it’s why they have never had money, don’t have money and will never have money. I they won’t the lottery they would be broke again fairly quickly . It’s pretty standard. Rich people handle money completely differently to not rich people. It’s the rich dad/poor dad dichotomy
I've been in Dons position. I spent 10 years in his position. Needing (not wanting, NEEDING) to leave a "relationship" for the good of everyone including my 10 year old daughter. The constant threats of self harm and worse were something I felt compelled to change my mind for until you become so resentful that it changes YOU as a person. Poisonous is all I can say.
@spartybrearly7221 they weren't entitled to anything, it was Ted's property to do with as he chose. He chose to leave it to Rita. The family were the greedy ones.
it was hard for the show to be condoning about alcohol when a large portion of the show revolves around alcohol; that is real ale coming out of those pumps. peter adamson was another actor that was problematic on set, so much so, he was written out off screen.
56:13 - Kevin the Gerbil has such a Napolean Complex, the poster boy for short-man syndrome: shouty, aggressive, and permanently looking for a fight or argument. A bit like one of those little yappy dogs, that's impossible to keep quiet.
Enter Brian Hibbard (singer for the Flying Pickets) as Doug Murray. Such a shame he did'nt get a longer stretch in the street and left after just 8 months. He was a talented actor and singer.
I heard an interview with Brian Hibbard at the time of Corrie's 50th anniversary in late 2010 (he died 18 months after that in June 2012). He more or less said that he never intended to stay any longer than the 12 months he was contracted to stay (and I think he let the producer know this) and the way the storyline was going I suppose they must have decided to write him out 4 months early and by the way he sounded in this interview he was happy with that.
If anyone wants to listen to interview with Brian from time of Corrie's 50th anniversary I would imagine you would still be able to find it somewhere if you googled it.
At 1:33:50 Geoff Hinsliff ( Don Brennan) forgets for a second that he has an amputated lower right leg cause as he sits down with Vera he twists his right foot to the side as far as i know prosthetics weren't that good in 1992.
Poor Mavis having Rita back in the Kabin. Emily is quite nasty to Percy it’s a shame she doesn’t show the same dislike to the reason Percy leaves that vile Battersby cretin.
Brilliant month: Ivy hits rock bottom; Rita goes into battle with Ted Sullivan's greedy relatives, the Brookes - or perhaps they should be called, The Vultures; Maggie Redman reappears to strike up a friendship with Ken, and thus continue the Ken Barlow-Mike Baldwin feud; Carmel ups the ante to get her feet more firmly under the Platts' table; and Derek goes back to school, as a caretaker.
Pity, isn't it? Pity that Ivy's religion can't keep her off the piss. Ya know, the religion that makes her think she's in a position to judge all and sundry.
At time stamp 10:30, the music in the background while Curly is relaxing on the sofa Is it Gary Moore ? I recognise the guitar playing & voice of Gary but don't know the name of the song Does anyone know? Cheers 🇬🇧👧
I worked out the real life location of the bookies Des works at is Liverpool Road in Eccles. It's now a cafe next to The Grapes Hotel Pub which you can see around 1.46:30.
I just love the new Mave the Rave! Since shes become the Kabins manageress, shes put dire Derek in his place! She so suits her steely backbone & i think has eventually seen him for the spoilt, selfish, little boy he is! I have had visions of what derek was like as a little boy! Mollycoddled, spoiled rotten, Always muffled in a scarf with a permanently pained expression on his face, telling tales behind his school friends backs to the teacher, playing nasty tricks on friends ( its why he has no male friends to this day!) I gotta say, the character of Derek is brilliantly portrayed By the actor( cant remember his name) who plays him! Cheers 🇬🇧👧
@@EveHenleySpread Yes i thought so but since Maves real name is Thelma Barlow, i thought it odd id never noticed that Barlow & Baldwin were surnames of major Corrie enemies! So hesitated about writing Peter Barlow, even though i was 99% sure it was right Not until i began to write Barlow & Baldwin did i see it! Cheers & thanks 🇬🇧👧
Lol, Deirdres hair needs hedge cutting shears! Why she thought a curly perm was preferable to her sleek shiny hair, i think she had a brain freeze!! Its the worst hairstyle in Corrie history! Its vile, dull, messy, styleless & totally unattractive Hope she changes it soon, it looks like a curly motorbike helmet! Cheers 🇬🇧👧
Must have been the writers begining of conditioning the viewers to think Jack was always a loving doting parent and grandparent. He was the shits to Terry.
Ivy and Vera are absolutely certain that their jobs, revolve around their personal lives. They come and go as they please, depending on what's going on in their personal lives, and expect their jobs to be there when they deign to return. And when they are actually on the job, they spend half their time gassing, never taking into consideration how low the demand is for hags of their age and skill level. But, when questioned about their unwillingness to live up to their end of the terms of employment, they're incredulous and/or righteously indignant.
I was with you right up until "hags of their age." Of course Ivy and Vera have no right to ignore the legal, moral, and social contracts of their employment. And yes, their sense of entitlement is completely unacceptable. But why introduce such misogyny and ageism into your observation? By doing that you demolish any respect one might have for your opinion.
The amount of people in these sections who think they're on the ball with timestamps and they either don't know how to type them properly or get the time completely arse about face. It's not the most mentally taxing thing.
The character of Gail is so selfish and hard, ranting on about how everyone has been thru hard times, but we don't all get drunk. If I lost a child my brain would break, Ivy is a judgemental pain in the bum, but she lost 2 husbands and a son, I don't think many would cope with that without professional help.
What's more Gail is beyond hard hearted and yet she lives in the same house as Martin with all his newfound psych training!! It shouldn't be beyond them that Ivy needs professional help.
Ivy asked; "Why is everyone feeling sorry for Don?" so she becomes the town drunk! Never cared for that character; she was selfish; nosy; spiteful a real Poison Ivy!
@@spartybrearly7221they weren't entitled to anything. No one is entitled to anyone else's money, it's up to the person leaving the estate,to whom they choose to leave it.
Ivy, becomes a bar fly. What would our Bryan say? 🍺🥃🤦♂Barlow and Maggie ? 🤦♂🤮 If, an emergency arises at Nurses residence, forget informing security or the Police. Just call Martin.....how lame. Mr carpet head. 😜😂 Lovely scene with Jack and baby Tommy. 👶
Eeeeh, forgot Kevin was Brian 1.2, shouting and putting his hands on blokes twice his size :/ boring storylines doesn't help as well, everything is being nitpicked and draggggggggggggeeeeeddd onnnnnnnnn....
I know Percy lives day to day by his days during the war. But the way it's accepted that people should laugh and roll their eyes at a different breed of man like him gives me the arseache. You see it in real life and worse nowadays with the degenerate way this country and world as a whole has become. There's not much greater shame or disgrace than sneering at heroes like his character represented.
Nobody, and I mean Nobody, can be a bigger pain in the arse than I'vy and Percy. And, Nobody can feel more sorry for themselves than Ivy and Percy. They simply can not begin to comprehend why anypne would want shut off them. But, Ivy's got Percy beat, in that she can do both simultaneously.
I'd have Percy as a friend any day. Loyalty. Ivy? She was one of those people who didnt practice what they preached. And brought religion into it. Everything she did had an agenda.
And what's all this shite about her being some stunning bird? When I was a child I thought she looked like a man in drag and that opinion has only got stronger now I watch these back 🤢
On what planet would Ken not know that Maggie Redman is Mike Baldwin's ex-girlfiend? If nothing else Ken would have seen Maggie with Mike in the Rovers. It just doesn't make sense that the writers use the comprehensive school to supposedly link Maggie and Ken for the first time.
Crocodile tears from Rita. She’s got more cash and a house from Ted’s estate. Blubbing about an antique chess set (which the greedy gold-digger will flog for a tidy sum)
And another mother who hates being home with her child. 🙄🙄 I don’t know who is writing this but if you are home raising kids and you are bored…..you are doing it wrong. First of all it’s FAR from easy and it’s absolutely not boring….unless you don’t love your child, then maybe you would want to run screaming but that isn’t normal.
Not necessarily, you can be a good mother and not necessarily want to be at home, lots of people go out working and have people help them. That does not make you a bad mother. A bad mother is one who verbally and physically abuses their kids.
Yeah you can be a great mother, love your children want to do the best for them and still feel the need for a break or the need to work outside the house in order to feel fulfilled. Judging others based on your beliefs is wrong. Everyone has to do what's best for their ownselves. Mother's good and and bad come in all shapes and packages.
I’ve never been a mother but I’ve watched friends and work colleagues struggle and it’s work in itself. It’s a lifelong commitment for most and I take my hat off to them. I don’t think I could’ve done it. It’s not easy.
After watching Corrie St. from the beginning til now, I've decided to just concentrate on certain story lines. Loved many more people in the beginning, but as of now I only really like Rita and Bet. All the other women are daft, and the men lying and scheming. Curly might turn out all right, and love Kevin and Martin. All the Duckworths are sad substitutes for Hilda and Stan. Audrey , Mavis, Vera, and Ivy are all around the bend, and always have been.
People really are missing the point of view of Ted's family. To begin, I am someone who despises anyone looking to gain from an apparent loved ones death. However, Ted's family seemed very nice up until they realised they were not notified of Ted's health yet shop assistants and gold diggers to shop assistants were informed. I think that's the point they became incensed (with good reason imo) the money situation is now less about financial gain but more the hurt and betrayal of being family that were deemed below strangers to be informed of his health.
Just want to thankyou again for these great Corrie episodes ❤
Lynne Perry was a fantastic actress. Brilliant in Coronation Street but first saw her in the movie Kes. She deserved an award for that performance. Rest in Peace ❤

Derrick in the job interview was one of the funniest things ive ever seen...he was spot on about work gives you dignity tho
Don walks very well with one foot I think he keeps forgetting
If Rita got a solicitor the first thing he/she would tell her is don't talk to Ted's family they'll plot behind your back.
That's right, where's there's a will, there's a relative.
Phillip Brooks was right. He and his wife were entitled to more than a few thousand £ from Ted’s estate. Rita was greedy and selfish.
@spartybrearly7221 they weren't entitled to anything, it was Ted's property to do with as he chose. He chose to leave it to Rita. The family were the greedy ones.
Rita should have gotten the docs in the hospital to testify in her defense that Ted was in his right mind at the time of the wedding.. End of.

The scene with Percy and Klaus was poignant and heart-warming.
Drunk Percy...classic
Do you think they wrote IVy's alcoholic storyline to maybe convince Lynn herself to get help
I think they chose that storyline because Lynne Perrie was drunk so often they knew she could play the part of a drunk.
it was hard for the show to be condoning about alcohol when a large portion of the show revolves around alcohol; that is real ale coming out of those pumps. peter adamson was another actor that was problematic on set, so much so, he was written out off screen.

@@eivissalyn655 no that came much later from what I've read. Yet another showbiz nonce. What a surprise.
The Maggie Redmond hooking up with Ken storyline stretches incredulity just a bit too far. Must Ken ALWAYS go out with Mike's cast offs?

The scene starts at 17:55 not 10:30 but the song is 'The Story Of The Blues' Gary Moore. I've never heard it but just googled the lyrics. Good tip 😉😂
Yes, the incredible and unforgettable GARY MOORE! ❤
Exposing a baby to Jack and Vera's screaming matches is literal child abuse. WTF were they thinking?
Shame on the parents for pimping out their lil babies for a check.
Art imitating life with Ivy.
Lynne Perrie was heavily on the piss at this time.
The storyline was very fitting.
3:20:48 I wonder if Klaus could understand a single word Jack was saying. Percy's accent would probably have been a bit of a test for him as well.
I worked out the real life location of the bookies Des works at is Liverpool Road in Eccles. It's now a cafe next to The Grapes Hotel Pub which you can see around 1.46:30.
How fitting for it to be called The Grapes when another northern (cult) institution had it's centrepoint as The Grapes.

Mollycoddled, spoiled rotten,
Always muffled in a scarf with a permanently pained expression on his face, telling tales behind his school friends backs to the teacher, playing nasty tricks on friends
( its why he has no male friends to this day!)

Yes i thought so but since Maves real name is Thelma Barlow, i thought it odd id never noticed that Barlow & Baldwin were surnames of major Corrie enemies!

God Lynne Perrie is really slurring her words in a lot of these scenes 😳
2:48:42 that radio jingle 😄
I always felt sorry for Ivy 😘
Not me, I couldn’t stand her from start to finish
Why? She’s a product of her own making.
Why
She reaped what she sowed
Part of me does. But her religious beliefs took over her life and made her hard to like.

Oh Rita’s crying is so fake. Ugh. No tears
Ivy unbelievable! Blaming Gail for her drunken performance in the Rovers. Hello, Ivy ? Who humiliated who??
So Gail's children's grandmother troubles aren't Gail's problem, but somebody she hardly knows she will help, what a piece of work she is.
I think Gail has been a saint to Ivy if it was me i would have kicked that black hole to the curb the second R Brian was six feet under.
That was like a riddle but I got it...and agree 😂

I would have happily told them to go for the court.. not offered a penny… people get really nasty over wills..
Rita isn't naive.....
Themes of a soap opera? Soapy stories 😅
Bet's new beehive is awful. The previous wig looked far better on her.
I think they changed it to present her as to how she was before Alec....a moderately free woman. Emancipation from marriage...
Back to her roots . Tarty but I love her
Beehive and a face like a smacked arse
2.47.40......Reg!!!! Pillooaawwwl talk about "cheeses of the world"...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
The character of Gail is so selfish and hard, ranting on about how everyone has been thru hard times, but we don't all get drunk. If I lost a child my brain would break, Ivy is a judgemental pain in the bum, but she lost 2 husbands and a son, I don't think many would cope with that without professional help.
What's more Gail is beyond hard hearted and yet she lives in the same house as Martin with all his newfound psych training!! It shouldn't be beyond them that Ivy needs professional help.
One husband died the other left her
Ivy def needs professional help, just like Emily the other day
Ivy asked; "Why is everyone feeling sorry for Don?" so she becomes the town drunk! Never cared for that character; she was selfish; nosy; spiteful a real Poison Ivy!
Don shake his head all the time oh dear
Rita what is left in the will is your business and nothing to do with teds family!!!
Disagree. Ted’s sister and her husband were entitled. Rita was greedy.
I have to disagree because she was married to ted so she was entitled to his estate
@@spartybrearly7221they weren't entitled to anything. No one is entitled to anyone else's money, it's up to the person leaving the estate,to whom they choose to leave it.
Ivy, becomes a bar fly. What would our Bryan say? 🍺🥃🤦♂Barlow and Maggie ? 🤦♂🤮 If, an emergency arises at Nurses residence, forget informing security or the Police. Just call Martin.....how lame. Mr carpet head. 😜😂 Lovely scene with Jack and baby Tommy. 👶
That friend of Tracey's that danced with the lad she fancied. Time to discard her as a friend yikes
Eeeeh, forgot Kevin was Brian 1.2, shouting and putting his hands on blokes twice his size :/ boring storylines doesn't help as well, everything is being nitpicked and draggggggggggggeeeeeddd onnnnnnnnn....
Wee twerp must have a knob like an Egyptian mummy.
4:34:08 poor Ivy. Worst thing she ever done meeting that angry lunatic
I know Percy lives day to day by his days during the war. But the way it's accepted that people should laugh and roll their eyes at a different breed of man like him gives me the arseache. You see it in real life and worse nowadays with the degenerate way this country and world as a whole has become. There's not much greater shame or disgrace than sneering at heroes like his character represented.
Nobody, and I mean Nobody, can be a bigger pain in the arse than I'vy and Percy.
And, Nobody can feel more sorry for themselves than Ivy and Percy. They simply can not begin to comprehend why anypne would want shut off them.
But, Ivy's got Percy beat, in that she can do both simultaneously.
I'd have Percy as a friend any day. Loyalty.
Ivy? She was one of those people who didnt practice what they preached. And brought religion into it. Everything she did had an agenda.
At least Percy is a good buzz 😂
@@MarcoNegrisEye If you say so.
@@ddrose06 unintentionally I mean. But aye I think so.
Audrey is a nightmare.
Does mavis really talk like that
I wondered as well.
Les Dennis Dined Out On It

Alf and Phillip Brooks should settle this properly - Queensbury Rules on the front lawn.
1:34:47 1:35:13 1:35:16 "IVY"!
3:47:20 "And no funny business"
4:38:40 "HAHA.
Why don't they do for Ivy what they did for Emily ?
Ivy’s dark roots 🧐
But shows she's not looking after herself
Raquel is one of the most irritating characters ever.
Played by one of the UK's biggest acting treasures. If you were irritated, then her acting was working.
@Londonlady agree, the character was irritating. Actress was excellent
And what's all this shite about her being some stunning bird? When I was a child I thought she looked like a man in drag and that opinion has only got stronger now I watch these back 🤢
But very tasty!
On what planet would Ken not know that Maggie Redman is Mike Baldwin's ex-girlfiend? If nothing else Ken would have seen Maggie with Mike in the Rovers.
It just doesn't make sense that the writers use the comprehensive school to supposedly link Maggie and Ken for the first time.
2:02:56 - 2:02:58 HERE'S MAVISSSS! 🔪
Derrick and Mavis comments about the Twa people was terrible.
Lisa Duckworth has unfortunate top teeth 🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣
1:24:47 Lisa was absolutely gorgeous ❤
She was alright. But she had one weird massive front tooth. I would be staring at it constantly and have to dump her. I'm shallow that way 😉😂
I agree, very goth when it was "in" too ❤
Gail it’s a STUPID idea!
How Holdsworth EVER got a job as a manager of anything is beyond belief, he's an atrocious judge of character and had zero people skills 😂😂😂
Yes but I love his colourful character and that head and neck action is refreshing, never seen English people with kinda gig 😊
2:02:54 mavis lol
Crocodile tears from Rita. She’s got more cash and a house from Ted’s estate. Blubbing about an antique chess set (which the greedy gold-digger will flog for a tidy sum)
Egawd yet rid of ivy already!

And another mother who hates being home with her child. 🙄🙄
I don’t know who is writing this but if you are home raising kids and you are bored…..you are doing it wrong. First of all it’s FAR from easy and it’s absolutely not boring….unless you don’t love your child, then maybe you would want to run screaming but that isn’t normal.
These soaps are a form of brainwashing.
Not necessarily, you can be a good mother and not necessarily want to be at home, lots of people go out working and have people help them. That does not make you a bad mother. A bad mother is one who verbally and physically abuses their kids.
Bloody hell not again 🙈😴😂😂😂
Yeah you can be a great mother, love your children want to do the best for them and still feel the need for a break or the need to work outside the house in order to feel fulfilled. Judging others based on your beliefs is wrong. Everyone has to do what's best for their ownselves. Mother's good and and bad come in all shapes and packages.
I’ve never been a mother but I’ve watched friends and work colleagues struggle and it’s work in itself. It’s a lifelong commitment for most and I take my hat off to them. I don’t think I could’ve done it. It’s not easy.
After watching Corrie St. from the beginning til now, I've decided to just concentrate on certain story lines. Loved many more people in the beginning, but as of now I only really like Rita and Bet. All the other women are daft, and the men lying and scheming. Curly might turn out all right, and love Kevin and Martin. All the Duckworths are sad substitutes for Hilda and Stan. Audrey , Mavis, Vera, and Ivy are all around the bend, and always have been.
My thoughts and preferences too ❤
People really are missing the point of view of Ted's family. To begin, I am someone who despises anyone looking to gain from an apparent loved ones death. However, Ted's family seemed very nice up until they realised they were not notified of Ted's health yet shop assistants and gold diggers to shop assistants were informed. I think that's the point they became incensed (with good reason imo) the money situation is now less about financial gain but more the hurt and betrayal of being family that were deemed below strangers to be informed of his health.
