    A friend of mine is a care worker, and was with a service user on a cruise, and Liz Dawn was onboard. She made a point of saying hello to both my fiend and the service user every night. She didn't have to, but did. I thought that a lovely thing to do.

    The look she gave her husband at 7:45 … classic! ~ Very cold reception. She was more excited to see her on screen son Terry, than she was her real life husband. The first daughter that was introduced and came out was very pretty. 1989 … seems so long ago. So many cast members are sadly gone now. 😔

I have my favourites who make me laugh & cry, like David Platt! Others like Audrey Roberts & the goth girl make me want to scream😫😫😫

    Look, I don't want to defile anybody's memories, but the Rovers Return exterior and interior were completely seperate ! The exterior on the studio lot was just a hollow shell, the actual "interior" was a mock up in the adjacent studio 1 set. What you are actually seeing is Michael Aspel entering an empty building. Then it's cut to Michael on the interior studio set (which had fake doors) and edited together to make it look continous.
