My favourite soap actress Maggie Jones a legend she was coronation streets queen with her acid tongue and vicious put downs no one could ever fill her shoes
Coronation Street has not been the same since Anne Kirkbride who played Deirdre Barlow and Maggie Jones who played Blanche Hunt passed away in real life nor since their characters got killed off screen in the programme just before they were due to return home it is just a real pity that you do not get good characters like these in any of the soaps nowadays
William Roach is such a dire actor! The only person never to move house, but whose accent completely changed!😂 Hos overly dramatic mouthed "What???" on the phone was hilarious! Alex Bain (Simon) obviously grew up on the Roach school if acting - equally dire!🤣
That's just rude mate, you can't just call actors useless when they're literally just doing their job, I know you wouldn't like it if that would said about you 🙄
Ken is the character; William Roache is the actor. And when you're in a scene, you do what the script and director say. Ken did like Blanche in his own way, but I'm sure he was thinking things that he felt best kept to himself.
Dying abroad is a money pit for survivors. Last poisoned gift from that hideous shop that was Blanche. Most horrid character ever. No wonder Deirdre was so explosive with a nasty mother like that. Only most kind Ken could survive that mix.
Rest in peace maggie jones
Rest in peace Anne Kirkbride
“Oh is she the one with the anorexic daughter?”
“No, she’s the one with the gay son with the dogs”
😂😂
Blanche Hunt was a soap opera legend, and her withering put-downs on various other characters were always something to look forward to 😂
"Hang out the flags" was one I remember. So funny.
@@Longi1974no got on the wrong side of Blanche
Ken looks like he's laughing in the thumbnail 😂
Yeah😂

I'm surprised that people reacted so well. I wonder how many were internally singing "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead"

Why are they surprised? She was always ancient!
Tickets, money, passport, Ab Fab. Two great mums from two great series.
On a slight tangent The whole "Continues in half an hour nonsense is something that used to put me off. Glad they just show a whole episode now.
Blanche was such an appropriate name - in that she scalded people with her words
Someone call tracy adam about blanche died
