I just came in here to say that. Bet wormed her way into that trip and stated she was gone get rid of Mavis in the very beginning. Neither of them wanted to do what Mavis suggested, made fun of her and bang. She had the most amazing time, loved it!!!
Thanks for uploading these episodes of Corrie. The older ones are much better than the tripe churned out today. Corrie taught me that the main achievement in life for residents was to get married and have a 2 up 2 down house and go to the pub umpteen times a week and be a nosy neighbour poking their nose into others' business. I wouldn't want to live there but I'm enjoying their drama!
@professionalgun6674 You are an absolute angel for kindly taking the time to upload all these. You've enabled me to have hours of joy and bliss re-watching my favourites, Bet Lynch, Alec Gilroy, Hilda Ogden, Mavis Riley etc again in Corrie's golden years. Thank you so, so much, bless you and PLEASE don't ever take them down, will you?
Gail is so unbearable - mocking that she "lives in a council house" when chatting to Deirdre. At least, in Corrieland, you can be on the list just 4 weeks before moving in, rather than 5 years in the outside world!
He was essentially good hearted, so it's a shame the writers changed his character in later episodes. He had become cold and hard. He'd been through a lot, but earlier Mike wasn't cold.
I've been binge-watching these marvellous Corrie years from 1978 and loving them (thanks PG66). But I have to admit I'm finding the Claytons/Terry Duckworth storyline a bit tedious. Shame.
I agree. When I was a kid of about 11, I was glad that I wasn't American... after watching Grease, I thought that you had to be about 30 to leave school 😂😂😂
I think they were probably playing it safe - some of those scenes between her and Terry might have raised a few eyebrows had the part being played by an actual school aged girl.
Mike being his brilliant devious self. Wish he'd had some bigger storylines than sleeping with dedrie and being the arch enemy of ken. he was a character that you couldn't hate.
It's stupid how we were expected to suspend reality so much over Andrea Clayton. She is, and looks, nearly 30, yet we have to pretend that she is an 18 year old girl.
I used to work in a bakery many years ago which involved making sandwiches and baguettes and serving customers on the counter. There was a customer who worked in the bookshop near the bakery who would always have a sausage roll and a doughnut!
That seemed a little unrealistic when Michelle blabbed to Kevin about Andrea's predicament. Surely Andrea would have told her to keep her mouth shut on the matter, instead she does the opposite. Some mate she is to her !
Feel sorry for Terry. I mean-was he abusive to Andrea? No. So why shouldn’t he see their baby? And then her telling Connie she’s going to have an abortion!
That all depended on your age, location, social standing, ethnicity, orientation, etc... For me it was way less complicated. I was a white boy going to primary school. I never got beat up for my skin colour, or teased about having a foreign name. I was fortunate, in that respect. I wouldn't revert everything back to those times, that's for sure. Just the price of goods!
Betty needs to lay off Wilf. Bet made a decision and it was hers to make and it's done and finished with now. If she doesn't agree with the decisions Bet made she is free to leave.
The guy with Bet, is Gary Raymond, who played the villain and traitor, Acastus in, Jason and the Argonauts...Mavis and her superior attitude is annoying...She's got no right moralising towards anyone...Neither has Betty for that matter...I saw the episodes with, "My Cyril" a few months ago...He was a pompous bore. And he was forced to leave the force for beating someone up...
Connie “ ‘appened you won’t feel the same way when it ( getting pregnant) happens to you.” Sue “No-‘appen I’ll bring up two kids on my own.” ( Different Corrie character, I know-but same actress. Never met Gemma and Paul’s dad, have we?)
2:22:41 Ida and Shirley's terrible wigs! What on earth was Shirley thinking of, she's such a frump here she could be Ida's sister - tho she's only half her age! She certainly improved later, as I recall she was very glamorous by the time she was dating Curly.
Andrea’s a selfish so and so, isn’t she. If Connie and Harry want to look after the baby-why would she consider abortion? She can go to university whilst to they look after it. And they want to-so the abortion isn’t for their sake-which she’s trying to make out it is!
Yes, December is coming I'm 100% sure of that, as are 99 or maybe 97% of my viewers. Those other 3% who find it hard to follow through to end on a logic conclusion by using certain clues like words, spellings, use of the months, years and so on... Usually have to ask.
Ahh, no more little Christabel Finch, who played Tracy from birth. I wonder if the producers just dumped her flat, or whether she was helped to adjust. Pretty major life change for a little girl.
GAIL IS SO UNBEARABLE MOCKING THAT SHE LIVES IN A COUNCIL HOUSE WHEN CHATTING TO DEIRDRE AT LEAST IN CORRIELAND YOU CAN BE ON THE LIST JUST 4 WEEK'S BEFORE MOVING IN RATHER THAN 5 YEAR'S IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD GLORY SENGO XXX 😘😘😘
Love watching these so much better than ones today
LOVE WATCHING THESE SO MUCH BETTER THAN ONES TODAY GLORY SENGO.
didnt think so when they first aired
Definitely easterners ruined soaps
Love it that Mavis had a better time in Blackpool than Rita and Bet😃
Yes!
I just came in here to say that.
Bet wormed her way into that trip and stated she was gone get rid of Mavis in the very beginning. Neither of them wanted to do what Mavis suggested, made fun of her and bang. She had the most amazing time, loved it!!!

They're all raging alcoholics! 😂
Hilda saying Rita, Mavis and Bet may find St Anne’s more their age group than Blackpool. That’s where Ena went! 🤣🤣🤣
Oh whisk me back to these days please, when people were normal worked hard and enjoyed life.

How long before these awful Clayton’s leave? It can’t be soon enough

Unless you hop across the chanel and chuck your passport
True
Where do you get 4 weeks??! I thought it was right away!
I didn’t see Gayle talking to Dreary at all! When did she say this??!
@@chicagogyrl4846 The Tilsleys viewed the house on Hammond Road: 27th May; moved in 17th June = 3 weeks, I stand corrected.
So great!! Left uk in 83 - so much better than today - thanks!😊
Love Mike looking out for hilda

I hate it when people put a lettuce leaf and a tomato on a plate and call it a salad.
Tracy and her little friend are like the twins from The Shining 😂
Caroline O’Neill (Andrea) was born in 1958-making her 27 in 1985. I thought there was no way she could be just leaving school!
I agree. When I was a kid of about 11, I was glad that I wasn't American... after watching Grease, I thought that you had to be about 30 to leave school 😂😂😂
Lol
I think they were probably playing it safe - some of those scenes between her and Terry might have raised a few eyebrows had the part being played by an actual school aged girl.
I was struck by Percy's comment about children being robbed of their childhood, just look at things now!
Agreed.
You’re so right!
Percy was annoying but he was certainly the oracle.
Mike being his brilliant devious self. Wish he'd had some bigger storylines than sleeping with dedrie and being the arch enemy of ken. he was a character that you couldn't hate.
Him wooing, marrying then divorcing Susan Barlow was a pretty big scandal!
Bet was solid gold.
Bet, Mavis and Rita together on holiday , Priceless!!
It's stupid how we were expected to suspend reality so much over Andrea Clayton. She is, and looks, nearly 30, yet we have to pretend that she is an 18 year old girl.
Agreed. She doesn't look much younger than the woman playing her mother.
and tht perm adds years on her - she looks as old as Deirdre.
Someone on another episode said she looked like she was in her 50s!
@@booth2710Perms don’t work for many. I remember when Deirdre got one. Ugh…
Wearing those trousers looking like Rupert Bear 😂
Bet, Rita and Mavis staying at The Imperial Hotel, North Pier Blackpool when is was part of the elite Forte Grand collection. Bygone years indeed. ☺☺
I used to work in a bakery many years ago which involved making sandwiches and baguettes and serving customers on the counter.
There was a customer who worked in the bookshop near the bakery who would always have a sausage roll and a doughnut!
Thank you for posting.
Loving all these episodes thanks
LOL, the Clayton's reduced to `Family Choice` Corn Flakes. I remember well Family Choice products in most 1980's corner shops.
Yes I remember the family choice items as well!
Vera wasn't messing when she went for Harry Clayton was she? I wouldn't mess with Vera!
They had no right to not let Terry be involved.
Bet looks a lot like a drag artist in this one. Bless her
That seemed a little unrealistic when Michelle blabbed to Kevin about Andrea's predicament. Surely Andrea would have told her to keep her mouth shut on the matter, instead she does the opposite. Some mate she is to her !
The way Kevin told RTerry was the most unfeeling line ever delivered.
Betty holds every one to a very high moral standard all because her husband was a copper. She forgets there's been plenty of bent coppers around.
She also conveniently overlooks the fact she had a child out of wedlock herself!
Poor Rita, I'd have been on the first bus home.
Sue was also Dixie in casualty working for the ambulance service!
Yes and now Bernie in Corrie.
I suppose the baby situation is a reason for the writers to turn Terry into a wrong’un. He was a cold hearted b🤐astard after this.
Feel sorry for Terry. I mean-was he abusive to Andrea? No. So why shouldn’t he see their baby? And then her telling Connie she’s going to have an abortion!
Like Ken's daughter and Maggie Dunlop.
@Saul Goodman The Clayton's were snobs!
Going out with someone,,,and them being the father of your child ,,,2 different things ,,,
@@77hwjeushs81 that right there is why people used to wait until marriage to have sex
So he wouldn’t come after her to see the baby.
Absolute classic Corrie ❤
Never knew Alf nearly had no 13 demolished!
Alf is a selfish man!
oh diedre you dont know the misery that tracey of yours in going to cause
Truly! I remember many episodes of Deirdre just bawling because of her.
Why do they all knock on doors like the russian secret police.
I noticed that too. I jump every time someone raps on a door on this show.
Jack & Vera deserve each other
Anyone else find Ken more irritating as this series progresses?
Can't remember this tracylove.
I've been watching all these older episodes to escape the harsh realities of today's world. Life was just so less complicated back then. 🍻✨️♥️🇦🇺
That all depended on your age, location, social standing, ethnicity, orientation, etc... For me it was way less complicated. I was a white boy going to primary school.

As a previous lady said, thank you for giving us so much pleasure, I really mean that x
Andrea (Caroline O’Neill) later popped up as Nathan’s mum in Queer as Folk.
2:34:51 One of the greatest EVER barneys in t'Rovers:
The Duckworths V The Claytons
⚡⚡😅😅😅
#knockedup #TerryDuckworth
The guy with Bet, is Gary Raymond, who played the villain and traitor, Acastus in, Jason and the Argonauts...Mavis and her superior attitude is annoying...She's got no right moralising towards anyone...Neither has Betty for that matter...I saw the episodes with, "My Cyril" a few months ago...He was a pompous bore. And he was forced to leave the force for beating someone up...
In my memory Mavis was a sweet, meek little mouse. Watching this I'm blown away by how catty and smug she actually is as a character😂
She is in Corrie now as Bernie Winters, Gamma and Paul's Mum
This was the start of Terry going bad. I'm sorry but those Claytons are boring. Love these old episodes though.
Connie “ ‘appened you won’t feel the same way when it ( getting pregnant) happens to you.”
Sue “No-‘appen I’ll bring up two kids on my own.”
( Different Corrie character, I know-but same actress. Never met Gemma and Paul’s dad, have we?)
I forwarded scenes with th3 Clayton family. Their misery does my head in. Crap acting and storyline. Depressing. Not my idea of entertainment at all.
Norman make a flashback 😅😅😅
Yes I am doing the same ,really boring family, the dad used to be Ted in Emmerdale and he was boring in that too.
@@irenemorley75 I don't know where Andrea theses day or Michelle I did know the Man who played Ted he was in a film with chesney hawks 😉
I forwarded them too
@@user-hc8sn1vs2kthe actress who played Andrea was later in Endeavor as Win Thursday. She also had a role in Happy Valley.
2:43:35 Jokes that would never fly today 🤣
Thanks again
Did Emily only wear clothes from the Victorian era?
"If you dont eat ya cornflakes, you might get that aracnia-vosa..." 😂
Kevin needs a good hair cut in fact most of them do on here
Yea, some of them had wild hairstyles and wigs even for the 80's 😅
It was the 80’s ya muppet
For once I agree with Deirdre. When kids are old enough to ask questions, they are old enough for honest answers tailored to their age group.
2:22:41 Ida and Shirley's terrible wigs! What on earth was Shirley thinking of, she's such a frump here she could be Ida's sister - tho she's only half her age! She certainly improved later, as I recall she was very glamorous by the time she was dating Curly.
How on earth could Shirley be Ida's sister🤔🤭🙄
@@irenemorley75 Fair point! I was of course referring to their ages!
Why does Terry Duckworth never look his fellow actors in the eyes when it’s his turn to do lines?
LOL EVERYONE SO YOUNG
(What’s up with ‘er?)
(Jealous!) Love it 🤣
Deidre, Tracy is your kid not Ken’s!
Is the rest of 1986 and 1987 coming
Tracy Barlow is so irritating….
She’s a child.
An irritating child.
2:45:16 I had to double take…I thought Jerry Booth had come back from the dead!
Yep, good one.
43:59 that's not right is it? Did the driver forget to close the boot?
Who’s looking after the cabin and who’s doing papers
Wow Tracey has grown fast!! 😂🤣
1984 was the turning point for CS.After 1984 the characters and script changed for the worse. Now of course it is TERRIBLE.
Andrea’s a selfish so and so, isn’t she. If Connie and Harry want to look after the baby-why would she consider abortion? She can go to university whilst to they look after it. And they want to-so the abortion isn’t for their sake-which she’s trying to make out it is!
Generally, these matters are more complicated than that.
Decisions like abortion need time to think through and can't just be made on a whim!
@@bsaunders5271 Hugely so! To suggest going through with a pregnancy just because your parents can care for the baby for a while is so unrealistic.
@@bibakroll8999 to suggest killing a baby for the convenience of the mother, who thinks her fun might be hindered seems a little more ridiculous.
And all those years later, Vera donates a kidney to Terry's and Andrea's child.
Thank you. Is December 1985 on the way too?
Yes, December is coming I'm 100% sure of that, as are 99 or maybe 97% of my viewers. Those other 3% who find it hard to follow through to end on a logic conclusion by using certain clues like words, spellings, use of the months, years and so on... Usually have to ask.
Mavis is so drag in personality and looks
Martin & Gail flirting ... 👁
God, what I wouldn’t have given to have seen Connie slug Vera just once and then dip…then she AND Ivy would have black eyes!
Bad casting with Andrea Clayton ….looks more like her mother’s sister than her daughter ……🤷🏼♂️
I agree!
Bet Blackpool beach area has changed over the years mavis noone can be that daft George dodged a bullet 😊
Ahh, no more little Christabel Finch, who played Tracy from birth. I wonder if the producers just dumped her flat, or whether she was helped to adjust. Pretty major life change for a little girl.

Sign of the times unfortunately
Oh Ken you’re so controlling.
He can tell D what he feels but NOT Tracy - it’s not his job!!!

The Imperial hotel ( Blackpool) is used to house illegal immigrants now 😢not available to holiday makers any more 😢
No it’s open to the public
All Ken and Dreary are doing are propping up the bar! Boring and useless! That’s why I skip over everything that has Ken or Dreary in it!
True!
