I love these classic episodes so much. The actors were so down to earth and the storylines were great. All the characters had their distinctive traits. One of my favourite episodes is 'The Car in The Lake', it's excellent comedy. I like the character of Fred. Despite his often awful personality he's never boring and the storylines he features in are some of the best. I haven't watched Coronation Street since the 90s. When a lot of the original characters left the show lost some of its magic and was never the same. My all time favourites are Elsie, Stan and Hilda, Eddie, Bet, Mike and Annie Walker. Thank you ProfessionalGun 66 for uploading these episodes, I have tried before to get them on DVDs but only certain episodes are available.
I remembered the car in the lake from when it first aired, but in my head the car was an Austin Princess. Perhaps Fred had a Princess later in the show and I'm confusing the cars.
That is so true. I loved the storylines. I've seen a few comments saying that Fred was a horrible character but I liked him and he was always in a good storyline and was a great character. The banter between Fred and Bet was hilarious 😂
I love watching these gems It’s my mother’s favourite show for donkeys year’s who has passed away three years ago and that’s why I love them,, Thank you to whom put these on god bless you,, Got to love TH-cam really do
@@staceygrove5976 those scenes were recorded in November 1983 that's when the late pat Phoenix rip left the screen for good . she left in 1983 not 84 . her final scenes were showing on the 4th of January 1984 .
I can remember the car in the lake episode as if it was yesterday. Fond memories sitting with my Mam & Dad rolling with laughter as the car headed into the water! Now watching these classic episodes with 50 year old eyes & enjoying the fantastic acting talent, great scripts & the nostalgia but also appreciating the social history, a glimpse back to my childhood- fashion, cultural references, etc. Really appreciate the time & effort that it takes to upload these videos .. many thanks
I had a Rover P6 myself… mine was better than Mrs Walker’s though.. the 3500s, was a fantastic car - same colour too, Lunar Grey.. I wish I still had it. I love seeing that car in these old episodes.. even if it did end up in the lake! 😂
Thanks for all your time and effort. I've really been enjoying all these episodes, especially all the comic escapades. "Perry Fairclough" made me laugh.
What a gem of a month May 1983 was...we got the car going into the lake with Bet & Betty...and Jack Duckworth pretending to be Vince St Clair via a dating agency. Pure gold. 😂
I am just loving watching all these uploads. Thank you so much, and so many episodes as well. You have made this lockdown bearable for this middle aged insomniac xxx
Awww that makes me sad, for all his big mouth and aggression I still like Len. To have a death off screen is such a cruel and half arsed end for him. I know there was other supposed reasons at the time but he was fully exonerated. I think after all those years he deserved better.
@@H3len50 None of the cast attended Adamsons funeral. I know he was cleared of the assault charges, but it does make you wonder if the cast knew something.
@@theresapierce3934 , I think that might have had something to do with his selling stories to the press and also his own story. Even though he was fully exonerated it cost him dearly in legal costs and he needed the money.
I recall Peter Adamson's Sunday People interview in May 1994 where he revealed none of the Coronation Street cast had ever made contact with him since his dismissal, he wrote to Julie Goodyear twice but she never replied. Johnny Briggs and Jean Alexander did pay tribute to him upon learning of his death though.
This showed up on my home page as a possible video of interest and as I started watching Coronation Street with my mum when I was about 8 which would have been around 1983 I gave it a view! Feels like I might have to watch some more I continued watching up until the mid to late 90s I loved the mix of real life and funnier moments that you got perhaps if they did more of that now it would gain back some viewers!
#VinceStClair #CaroleMonroe 1:48:02 The legendary Vince St Clair 😅 2:07:30 The lovely Carole Monroe ⚡ 2:10:26 Vince rumbled 2:28:41 A tempting bait 2:59:18 💥💥💥
I was glad to get to this episode after watching the Terry/Suzi one. Elsie came through for Suzi in the end. Shame it took for her to have see the result of Suzi's bruises after being attacked by Terry. Bet and Betty stuck in car and still insulting the idiot thrt is Fred was classic. The one liners are the best. Greet aftkng and script writing. Edit: I was on a roll with my opinion and omitted to day thank you for your time to uploaded these episodes of Corrie. The older ones are the best. Thanks for your hard work.
Bet WAS Coronation Street back then...mind the writers gave her some brilliant lines, but she delivered them perfectly, and her character stands the test of time, nearly thirty years later and I've cried laughing at the whole car in the lake storyline...it definitely wouldn't have been the same without her and Hilda, my other favourite person ❤
When Betty, Bet and Fred walked back to the car, I thought it might be in the water but the writers took the scene to a whole new comedic level. Hilarious. 2:07:16 She, keeps reminding me slightly of Alma from yonder cafe. 2:08:33 Carol Monroe, almost beats to death, Vincent St Claire. 😂😂
When Mavis said SHE’D swap places with Bet, and Bet went “Done!” Imagine if Mavis actually had swapped places with Bet-how would she have coped in Bet’s place? “I don’t really know...”
Late ‘83/ Early ‘84 saw a changing of the guard in The Street. We bid farewell to old school favourites Bert Tilsley, Len Fairclough, Elsie Tanner and the Grumpy Old Men, Uncle Albert and Stan Ogden and in came geeky Curly, whiny Kevin, the deeply annoying Percy and the odious Terry Duckworth.
that's when the street started to decline . mind you Percy was a good actor the late Bill Waddington RIP. he knew how to act .incidentally he appeared in it in 1976 when Alf married Renee Bradshaw the owner of the corner shop.
Was the Terry Goodwin actor taking some magical elixir of youth, because when he returned as Sean Skinner, over a decade later, he hadn't seemed to age a day.
Suzy was certainly an unpleasant character. But a bit of an uncomfortable ending when Suzy's husband left and they all turned and looked at Suzy, like she'd brought on the stalking and domestic violence on herself. All too common of social attitudes back then - almost like stalking and domestic violence were justified in some cases. Pretty unpleasant today and indicative of how widespread domestic violence was in that generation.
Fred Gee was such a blustering, aggressive man, when he wasn't toadying to Mrs. Walker or any possible conquest he had his eye on. He seems to come across as a deeply unpleasant embarrassment of a man, and his boastfulness, greasiness and sweatiness would surely turn most women's stomachs. Yet there were times I could feel sorry for him. His ambitions always exceeded his abilities and he had quite a pathetic existence. Also his doomed marriage to Eunice made everything worse for him. A real no-hoper.
So May 11th is Len Fairclough final appearance,he’s just talked about until the end of the year,sad decline,but the snowball which saw the end of a lot of characters in a short space of time
It's interesting how they came to that role. As the actor who played Stan Ogden got more unwell in real life and couldn't handle all the scenes, Vera and Jack were slowly moved to replace Hilda and Stan as the comedy married couple.
Peter Adamson after being one of the biggest stars in coronation Street during the 60s & 70s his last hurrah to the charector of Len fairclough is playing darts in the background
Have to say it has it all, really enjoyed these gems ..❤️There and back to see how far it is… not heard that for years 😂 and slippery Vince 😍😂 I almost fancied him myself 😂
What the hell is with Deirdre telling poor Hilda she can't refund her for the tinned food she bought for Archie' funeral tea, because its perishable???
That cold hearted greedy woman, she could have at least passed over a double helping of fish and chips to Stan (feud or not), he's like a big hungry baby!
They really pushed the boat out, haha, with this somewhat special bank holiday episode, lots of action all together like this was still rare at this time, so the Suzie & Car storylines would've been quite a big event. I checked to see if both episodes were broadcast as a double special on Bank Holiday Monday, but they weren't, they were as usual Monday and then Wednesday, so when they're talking about it being Bank Holiday in episode 2, it is in fact Wednesday.
It truly is getting more and more difficult deciphering Albert and Stans lines. Quite a sad end to two essential ingredients. Aye well Ken play the white man and realise she left you that hatchet job so you could contact her for a ride. That weed of a Londoner didn't hit baw heed hard enough for she remained in coronation Street. "GENTS OUTFITTIN'!??" 😂
Yes by 1983 Albert is looking very frail and it hard to understand what he's saying. The actor's final appearance was in January 1984 and as his health deteriorated he never returned and died at the end of March. Same with Stan it is obvious his health is failing by now he can't walk hardly, he's overweight and his speech is hard to understand. Perhaps it might have been kinder to have killed the characters off the year before but the actors wanted to stay. The actor died late August 1984 and his final appearance was in early March but filmed January/February.
Even though 1983 was 6 yrs before I was born never laughed so much with the car in lake and Bet getting dumped in cow dung it killed me so much. Also tune playing at 51:00 We are Detective by Thomson Twins
25.39 = Bet says "I suppose it could be worse...could be in Florida..." Ha, Ha, Ha! Those of us whose live in the Southern part of the USA know Florida very well. It is well known for much stranger things than the tight spot the employees of Mrs. Walker find themselves in. East Tennessee Loves the early shows of C.Street!
Susie had the chance to get away when she had to pass the front door to go upstairs and then again on the way down 🤷♀️ like you would trust an abusive nutcase 🤷♀️
I remember the Carol Monro incident almost word for word, but have no recollection of the Crabtree fish n chip fiasco! Poor Hilda, I have to find the next video A.S.A.P. to see if she gets it. (Something tells me that she doesn't.)😐
I'd love to see the episodes when Sally Webster had an affair with a slimey car salesman. His name escapes me, and I don't remember the year. Thanx for all the uploads.
Did Jack say “Weatherfield cabs” before he said he’d ‘get’ Vince St Clare? What would an American entertainer be doing in a Manchester cab office? Clue? 😂😂

Yes I quite agree I'm enjoying classic corrie on TV at the moment I don't watch the new ones anymore
Stan, Eddie and Hilda were the best. So funny.
If you believe in the characters, ❤❤❤
The combination of Bet, Betty, Fred and Annie at the Rovers was the best. Best years of the street.
That is so true. I loved the storylines. I've seen a few comments saying that Fred was a horrible character but I liked him and he was always in a good storyline and was a great character. The banter between Fred and Bet was hilarious 😂

Stanley smiling and waving in the funeral procession. Hilda: stop that, you’re not going on your holidays! 🤣🤣🤣
watching Classic Emmerdale now- and I was trying to think who Shadrach Dingle in that reminded me of!
How sad to think that Elsie saying to Suzie, " what would you do if you only had 2 years to live". Pat Phoenix only had 3 years left.
I was thinking the same. Poor Pat.
She still looked really good though in her final appearance in the Street (January 1984).
Would have been good if Suzi asked Elsie and she said "join EastEnders"
Apparently she smoked 60 cigarettes a day most of her adult life.

Bet is such a great character, she gives every scene an electric energy
Julie Goodyear was brilliant at delivering one liners. I think her dialogue was essentially just one liners. Highly entertaining
I remember seeing the car in the lake escapade when it aired, I was 10, and I can vividly remember my parents falling around laughing
Me too! It’s about the only one I remembered! Looking forward to watching it! 🙂
I can remember the car in the lake episode as if it was yesterday. Fond memories sitting with my Mam & Dad rolling with laughter as the car headed into the water!

One of the funniest episodes! Bet and Betty were truly underestimated actresses

In the car scenes, Fred looks like Mr Toad.

Vera was at her best in these episodes, rough but hilarious with a kind edge. They changed her as she went on which was a shame.
When Stan died, they moved Vera and Jack over to replace Hilda and Stan as the comedy married couple. Their role changed quite a bit.
Yes she was a bit "nicer" in the early Eighties , she had time to chat to people with some warmth . Gradually she got nastier and meaner .
I really disliked her and her mouth, but it just shows that she was a terrific actress.
Vera, for sure, is an unforgettable character. She made me angry and made me laugh so many times.
When Mavis said SHE’D swap places with Bet, and Bet went “Done!” Imagine if Mavis actually had swapped places with Bet-how would she have coped in Bet’s place? “I don’t really know...”
Eddie says Stan is like a baby bird waiting for Hilda to come home with the worms! Love Stan - he is like a big teddy bear.
More like a big teddy boy in concrete boots
More like humpty dumpy.

Bert,len,stan and Elsie were irreplaceable. Tatlockwas no loss.l barely understood a word he said. They should've got rid years ago along with dreary.
Was the Terry Goodwin actor taking some magical elixir of youth, because when he returned as Sean Skinner, over a decade later, he hadn't seemed to age a day.
he was the guy who ran the betting shop he was quite good looing and handsome just like he was here in 1983 episodes.

I don't know, it would take me all my self control not to thump that unpleasant, selfish, lazy brat of a person.
Sadly, it seems that a lot of people still have that attitude. The "What were you wearing?" crowd.

A truly odious man and character. I can't bare him.
Everything about him is cringe. Today he would be arrested for being a sex pest.
Fred is one of my favs. I like him
Just goes to show what a good actor can do .
Woman in charge of the ‘Bill and Coo’ dating agency is Shirley Stelfox ( Edna Birch on Emmerdale).
And the original Rose, from Keeping Up Appearances
She also played a separate role in the mid 1990s as a B&B landlady in Blackpool that Vera stayed at…
I've just watched the car scene loads of times!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
These episodes must be Peter Adamson’s final scenes.
How very ironic at 1:20 he talks about court and being on very dicey ground ...
Len was one of my favourite characters. Really good actor
So May 11th is Len Fairclough final appearance,he’s just talked about until the end of the year,sad decline,but the snowball which saw the end of a lot of characters in a short space of time
Quite a non-descript way of going out for the character but he was arrested on 24th April 1983 and fired four months later and killed off in December.
Jack and Vera Duckworth, one of Coronation St best couples. They were like a real life husband and wife.
It's interesting how they came to that role. As the actor who played Stan Ogden got more unwell in real life and couldn't handle all the scenes, Vera and Jack were slowly moved to replace Hilda and Stan as the comedy married couple.
You're right about them being very realistic but I can't say I ever liked either of them.
I think 💭 I’m really going 2 enjoy 😉 this episode. It’s full of Enrique! I just love 💕 it!!

This British Soap Opera is so funny and nice to watch.
That cold hearted greedy woman, she could have at least passed over a double helping of fish and chips to Stan (feud or not), he's like a big hungry baby!
3:14:10 I just love those one liners from Hilda to Stan, “I don’t care how big your bones are, they’re too well covered”.
What Terry says he’ll do-get in his car and drive flat out at the first wall he comes to-is actually the way Don Brennan dies in the 90s.
Is there a funnier sight than Fred giving Bet a piggy back out of the lake? 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Quite a shock Vera will get! AkA Carol Monroe!!

Hilda “Well, if seein’ ‘im cremated hasn’t convinced you, nowt will.” 😂😂
I think suzie husband terry was Sean skinner who bought the bookies years on and worked with des barnes
Stan “ That’s the first time Archie’s been through that door in ten years.” Has he ever been there? Don’t remember ever seeing him...
Yes, in the early 70s.

When Archie dies is about the ony time I've ever seen Stan show ANY love towards Hilda. He treated her so bad 😢
You need to see even older episodes. Stan was always terrible to Hilda.
