2:38:54 This was when Mike blew his only real chance to be with Diedre and he hasn't got a clue that he has. Deep down he was probably more interested in taking Ken's girl who o remember had a regular spot as Cowley's secretary in The Professionals.
Wow well spotted - I knew I'd seen that actress before! I think she must have got a lot of work on big TV shows at this time, as she's a very familiar face to me (I watched a lot of telly as a kid!) I'm slightly baffled why she was cast for this, as not only can she not act (as wooden as Pinnochio), she isn't really the sexy, femme fatale type she's supposed to be!
Mike had a narrow escape… Better off without Dreary Deirdre… he could do far better… enjoy himself with a different dolly bird every few months… Deirdre was nowt but a user deep down… shelved her Tracey off to anyone who’s look after while she was swanning about….
God me too - was Deirdre out of her mind?! I reckon those heavy specs must have strained her brain - choosing a life with boring Ken and his flatulent Uncle Albert, over sexy Mike and his slick bachelor pad. It's a no-brainer!
Baldwin treats a woman like a lady as long as they act it, Ken is a dictator At least Baldwin has a business ( ken couldnt teach he was to busy bedding the teachers)
Reckon she should of chosen Billy Walker out of any of them...at least he was prepared to take her and Tracy to Jersey and wasn't bothered about being named in divorce like Ken was.
I never understood Mrs. Walker's fondness for Fred, or Bet and Betty's affection for him. He always came across as a creep to me, short tempered, arrogant, grimy. Yet he was pretty popular with the regulars.
@@colinjennings3661 According to Coronation Street producer Bill Podmore, Fred Feast shared more than just his name with Fred Gee. He was more like the character, than even Fred Gee was - and far more uncouth! Apparently one of Fred's favourite tricks was to do a silent fart just after 'action' was called on a scene behind the bar, so that poor Bet, Betty or Annie had to endure the terrible smell and keep acting, until the scene was finished. He left the show under a cloud because he basically went without giving notice. He said he was fed up with all the big storylines the writers kept giving him, capitalizing on Fred's comedic strengths. Bill Podmore was angry that he had never mentioned it or asked them to ease up on him - he just upped and left. This left the writers with a big headache - the Rovers was the backbone of the show, and the cast members who worked there had their scripts written well in advance. Fred's sudden departure meant many weeks of scripts had to be drastically re written. Podmore was angrier still when Fred sold negative stories on his co-stars to the tabloids, rudely saying if he'd stayed in the show any longer he'd have ended up "Another Coronation Street cabbage" who could hardly deliver his lines - regarded as a sly dig at the actors who played Bert Tilsley, Uncle Albert and Stan Ogden, who all suffered ill health and had recently died. A few years later, Bill Podmore was holidaying in Jersey with his teenage children. He'd heard rumours that Fred Feast was there, so asked his kids to keep a look out for him and warn him if they saw him, as he did not want a reunion! Unfortunately he bumped into Fred on the street one day, before he could dodge him. Fred rushed over and greeted him warmly, like a long lost friend. After some polite small talk, Fred said to him: "Are you going to ask me then?" Baffled, Podmore replied: "Ask you what?" Quick as a flash, Fred said: "Ask me back on the show?" "In your dreams!" said Bill. "Fair enough" said Fred, and walked off. He did a fair amount of TV and movie work after leaving the Street, including a long running role in 'All Creatures Great and Small' and the Michael Caine movie 'Little Voice'. He also popped up as the barman in a Liz Dawn comedy video, a celebrity party based at her real home (it's on TH-cam and it's surprisingly good!) Fred Feast died of abdominal cancer on 25th June 1999, aged 69. Coincidentally his former co-star Brian Mosley, who played Alf Roberts, died on 9th February of that same year, aged 67.
I totally agree..I could never see the attraction. I was thinking there must be something wrong with me lol. I guess there wasn't much to choose from. I suppose the women didn't have a great choice either to be fair.
I think that's a bit unfair, Deirdre was quite a sort in the 'seventies and early 'eighties. She had a cracking figure, lovely skin and what used to be called a 'bubbly' personality. When she first joined the show in the early 'seventies she was definitely regarded as a 'totty' character, and all the eligible men were after her! It's a shame those horrendous welder-style glasses didn't do her any favours!
I like Ken and Deidre together. When she died, he gave a beautiful eulogy. I also like Mike’s loyalty to Deirdre over the years. I suppose the show aimed to depict the complications of relationships. There is no instruction manual when it comes to matters of the heart.
And I think that’s exactly what this show portrayed in those days. Someone commented on a story on Coronation Street on MailOnline that times had changed, and that’s why the program was different these days. But it’s more than that. I think the old Corrie portrayed life as it was then it was hard. There was no Work, and it portrayed real people and real problems , relationship issues etc without going into rape and murder, and all of those horrible gory things that we really don’t need to see. The current coronation Street nowadays is awful. I just can’t watch it
Awww, and how tragic that Anne Kirkbride, who was 19 years younger than Johnny Briggs, died first aged just 60. Johnny made it to 85 - and William Roache (Ken Barlow), is still going strong aged 88, again ironic when Ken and Deirdre would have meaningful conversations about the age difference between them and the 'fact' he would die first.
Very decent of Hilda, in a previous episode. To go visit Emily and gift her some tonic wine, after the Arnold Swain incident. Why Emily failed to change her front and back door locks after Swain left shows she trusted him far too much.
02:50 😂Alf Roberts in 1981 to Mike Baldwin who first appeared in 1976 and also opened a factory in the same year "thinking of settling down again then?"...🤦🏻♂️
Because Mike had previously had a long term gf and was a dad figure to her children. They were his base in London, so he was more "settled" (despite his affairs) then than he is in these episodes, living in a hotel. He also set up home at number 5 with Bet Lynch of course, when he first joined the series.
Old Reg perving at the bird in the satin disco pants at Mikes flat warming party… Ken was having a good shufty also… I bet they did a few takes of that scene…
Ahhhh no, this was the ‘pageboy’; trust me, I had a lovely ginger one as a child in the 70s. Quite a work of art! Joanna Lumley sported one in ‘The Avengers’ prior to mine 😊 Edited to say: ‘Purdey’ (probably wrong spelling) was her character’s name. Blimey I feel dead old.
@@neighbourhoodwitch18 Oh my goodness you are right! That jogged my memory as I also had a ginger pageboy hair cut and I think it was 1982 when I started senior school. My hair used to balloon up when it was humid/rainy and I used to crimp it to flatten it - not a good look!
28 grand for one of those flats, those were the days,think they are in castlefield area of Manchester seem too remember reading about them, they were 14.5 k when built ,Mike and Gail actually purchased one at the time.
How Gail has the nerve to complain about being broke is beyond me. SHE demanded that too small house, everyone warned her and she pouted until she got her way. People basically begged her to drop the idea and predicted all the problems they would have,she insisted it wouldn’t bother her. Now she is whining and squeaking because she got exactly what she demanded. It’s beyond annoying.
After some meticulous research, consideration and watching peak Corrie [1978-81] several times I can announce the search for its greatest character is [drum roll please] a dead heat between Annie Walker and Mike Baldwin. The screen positively sizzled in their presence. Honourable mentions go to Eddie Yates. Stan Ogden and Bet Lynch
I find it hard to believe that everyone sat at the table with matching crockery for every meal( except Stan and Hilda, obviously)! Also, the constant buying of drinks all round was a bit unrealistic. And surely they could have put real tea, or at least coloured water, in the café teapot! So now we have Alan Bradley as Wally, having had Kevin Webster as a paperboy and Percy Sugden as a pal of Uncle Albert.

1:16:38 - Sonia, the beauty therapist, asks Ken Barlow if he's surprised that "an attractive girl like me" hasn't got a boyfriend. He doesn't look very surprised, and neither am I. Sonia's strident voice and abrasive personality would send most men - with the exception of the inveterate womanisers (take note, Mr. Baldwin) and the most desperate - running for cover. Yet another unappealing female of Corrie history with a voice to make you hit the mute button - and we don't even have to wait a full decade before hideous Kimberley Taylor arrives.
Gawd I agree, the casting was seriously 'off' with a lot of the guest characters, and Sonia was particularly ghastly. I don't know how she got work - the woman couldn't act! And she wasn't exactly the glamorous type she was supposed to be either. I bet every other actress up for the role was better than her!
Mike had more fun and could have had a successful marriage and kids with Diedre, if Emily would have stopped meddling! There is one like her on every soap opera!
@@gilliangrant8764 Thanks so much! Kuchi's comment is a bit unfair to Emily, after all she did marry the guy - it wasn't just a fling! And as a religious person, it was a big deal to her that the marriage turned out to be bigamous. The missing episode you linked to was 3rd September 1981.
Exactly. She was "trapped" in that house with him for an hour and a half and she thought she was going to "lose her mind". Spare a thought for us having to watch the courtship, marriage and magical fortnight when he went scatty over a door panels window
Nobody likes Fred but he's a great source of laugter for us all. Bet about Fred: "Frog Face" "Head like a Turnip" and his girlfriend must be "Short-Sighted and wearing a Deaf Aid".

It's a shame the Arnold episode is missing. From memory the acting was superb and it was truly frightening.

If I was Deirdre with a choice between Barlow and Baldwin, I would have picked Baldwin any day.
God me too - was Deirdre out of her mind?! I reckon those heavy specs must have strained her brain - choosing a life with boring Ken and his flatulent Uncle Albert, over sexy Mike and his slick bachelor pad. It's a no-brainer!
A very wise if obvious choice.barlow is such a smug prig.
Baldwin treats a woman like a lady as long as they act it, Ken is a dictator At least Baldwin has a business ( ken couldnt teach he was to busy bedding the teachers)

@@gilliangrant8764 Thanks so much! Kuchi's comment is a bit unfair to Emily, after all she did marry the guy - it wasn't just a fling! And as a religious person, it was a big deal to her that the marriage turned out to be bigamous. The missing episode you linked to was 3rd September 1981.
Exactly. She was "trapped" in that house with him for an hour and a half and she thought she was going to "lose her mind". Spare a thought for us having to watch the courtship, marriage and magical fortnight when he went scatty over a door panels window
@@MarcoNegrisEye Who has glass panels in a front door anyway? Poetic licence by the writers to engineer that little accident I reckon!
@@glamdolly30a lot of people have glass in their doors.
Nobody likes Fred but he's a great source of laugter for us all.
Bet about Fred:
"Frog Face"
"Head like a Turnip"
and his girlfriend must be "Short-Sighted and wearing a Deaf Aid".
When women are referred to as "Judies" and "Birds", I do a bit of vomit in my mouth
Those 2 new barmaids are terrible actresses! 😂
Probably because Ken Barlow is so mind utterly boring, and presumably still is...
Len should have knocked out that paper boy!!!!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
