Apart from Ken Barlow Emily bishop bet lynch Rita fairclough Gail tilsey Mavis and a couple more characters I know jack and Vera Eddie Yates Betty mrs walker albert tatlock Deirdre as passed so sad really we’ve lost some lovely characters
Can't believe Corrie never got Eddie Yates back at sone points over the years. He was one of the best loved characters on the show and he was working a lot over the years.
As a younger person Hilda made me cringe, now I see her as quite a well developed character. They wrote quite clever retorts to lazy Stan and Eddie (the likeable twicer).
Marion is so horrible, I can't believe she is treating Eddie like this, she seems to expect him to wait around while she chooses between Eddie and Phil, but why should he!
Exactly, you find a few of these kind of frustrating abnormalities in some storylines and this one is really annoying, but I find Marion annoying anyway. I also find it frustrating when important information isn't told by the one who knows it to the one who needs to know asap. I also don't like it when Gail always stops Brian from fighting or arguing, but that's a different subject.
Knew I recognised Mrs Chadwick! The actress ( Sue Johnstone) was Sheila Grant on Brookside, then years later ( recently) she was Gladys Denker in Downton Abbey!
Im sick of people pulling Eddie & Marian to pieces Saying very derogatory things about Marian! Today's society is so obsessed with their looks, having fillers & Injections, surgery so much so that women AND men start looking all the same, plastic Barbie & Ken dolls. Anyone with natural looks & interesting faces have much more character, some people have such unusual looks they are never forgotten & have often become very famous film stars Give me someone with interesting looks any day! I think Marian is cute & sweet Eddie is a lovable Teddy Bear With a heart of gold I know its their characters but Together the actors make their parts work very well, they are just so believable because of their great acting skills They are the Mach 2 of Stan & Hilda ! Ive never known how they worked out in the series, maybe It will be shown sooner or later Thanks 🇬🇧👧
I think they should’ve kept marion and Eddie in. They really worked and yes you’re right it was ordinary looking people living in ordinary houses and that was the big appeal and it still is to me. I still watch things that are very realistic rather than watching TV programs about middle-class people that are all doctors lawyers etc, living in big Plush houses, Real life isn’t like that for most people.
I remember and loved the 70s & 80s of coronation street, some great characters including the laughs with Stan and Hilda, I also liked bet lynch she also enjoyed a laugh 😅, I also liked jack and Vera for a laugh 😂 and Eddie had a GSOH but all the characters were great 👍
@@lorraineydays57 lmao, me too. This arvo I decided to see if there’s any episodes from 64. A very young Ken Barlow goes into his bedroom, throws himself on the bed, low and behold the lamp shade is crooked, I had to laugh 🤣
They should make today’s “ writers” of Coronation St in a room to binge watch what made the St great, because there is NOTHING great about it now, constant drivel, dragging storylines on until they die of old age, depressing storylines every episode, far from being an uplifting half hour watch, with a bit of comedy thrown in, its just soooo miserable and depressing, after being a life long Corrie fan, I’m done, back to the old days....there’s comfort here.
A Fred G. storyline is such fun. Poor Fred nothing comes easily to him. Someone describing Fred: "It's like trying to deal with a fifteen stone toddler".
I totally get where Hilda is coming from.. with the you can insult me as much as you like Stan….BUT…..! and Mrs Walker… with her quip about Maggie… brilliant writing beautifully delivered
When Mikes dad died, Deidre said Mike had no siblings, when in fact that wasnt true. Mike had a brother called Harry, who raised his (Mikes) son Danny (Bradley Walsh), thinking he was his own. Mike had an affair with Harrys wife Viv.
Oh i say! Maggie the Flower Lady resembles a Great White Shark! Those cold cold lethal eyes are un Nerving! I knew straight off when after a 2nd date with Mike she managed to question his machinists about the ins & outs & profitability of his company She buttonholed him from the onset! I thought Mike had become oblivious to the scheming minx & Was swallowing all her piffle But i was pleasantly surprised when he refused to loan her the money! I dont even believe she did borrow the £3,000 from another backer, shes a real player that one! She knew Mike would be intrigued & wondering about someone who would lend her the money so quickly. So hed eventually tell her to drop this mystery backer & give her the real £3,000 !!! Lets hope hes not that stupid! Cheers 🇬🇧👧
In my late 50s and watching these old Corrie episodes that I ordered the pint and half pint glasses that are being used at the rovers - Two “new year/xmas/bank holidays” later - not used them as everything in cans! 😂😂😂
Lol at Mavis!...She tells Rita that she's got her budgies egg in her bra...Then Eddie walks in and says that he has a mate who's a specialist on Finches and Tits! Great scene and dialogue
Eddy is so sweet when trying explain to Mavis why the egg won't hatch.☺ Omg😮 she has the egg in her bra😂 Mike ripe for the kill😂 I love Stan he looks like a big old walrus 😙
He was a good enough actor - his character wasnt that likeable - a reflection of real life - how many people in real life do you like - not that many for me
I never found him that bad. Reminds me of people I’ve worked with in the military. I know he lost a wife in some type of accident but haven’t seen any episodes on that. To me he seems a miserable aging, lonely man with not much to look forward to.
The Bookies wife was played by Sue Johnson who played a main Character, Sheila Grant in Brookside, the as then new Channel 4 She was also in a superb series Starring Trevor Eve as a police detective on Cold Cases & Sue Johnson was a forensic pathologist with her team I think the series was called Cold Case, but im not sure of that! I love Sue Johnson, shes a 1st class actress & if shes in any tv show or film then i know it will be great! Ive said this before but honestly theirs not ONE redeeming quality about fred gee Hes a disgusting vile creature No manners, selfish, greasy & Creepy, foul tempered, dishonest Cunning, sly, bullying, I mainly skip the storylines featuring him! I disliked him intensely when he 1st appeared in Corrie years back & having seen him in these old episodes my dislike has only intensified. I may be casting the man in a bad way but for someone who plays the abhorent fred so well makes me think hes very much like the character he plays. Why Corrie kept him in the show i dont know! Very few viewers liked him & it was mainly women & if they are anything like me Then.... well i shall leave it there! Trillions of thanks PG66 You have made many people happy Regards 🇬🇧👧
I could have sworn the first time I saw Bette, her eyes were blue! Maybe the colored contacts she wore irritated her eyes. And I think that she had a slight nose job, too!
It amazes me that folk continually rubbish uncle Albert the character survives the 14-18 war & he’s expected to be a ray of sunshine 😂 men today would be shot for cowardice as there are hardly any real men left just big girls blouses with a whiff of testosterone i’d rather have a country full of Alberts than what we have now.
Right! And when you're as old as he is, you've earned the right to be a curmudgeon. All these people saying how miserable he is will find out for themselves, should they live so long.
I think it's because most of them can't imagine what's it's like to see boys, your pals being killed in front of you and having no time to grieve. Because of them most of us will never know or understand the price that was paid for our freedom. LEST WE FORGET ❤🇬🇧❤
1:51:05 Gawd 'elp us. Only thing they had between them were her nashers. Favourite cuisine, lettuce and carrots. Supplied by Mike Baldwins gold digger. I, think Rita might have been taking Len to the cleaners since they first broke up and he hit her. First she whinged about wanting central heating and a better kitchen in their house. Now she wants the new house and gets it. Be sure to tune in next week, to see Mavis witter on so much she almost lays an egg?
1.03.18 - Ken shows his lefty liberal tendencies once more. Perhaps if he could have seen 40 years into the future, he might realise how wrong he was and how correct Alf, Emily and Uncle Albert were.
You should mound like a right wing moron, one thing I learned young wa ms that liberal people are good and conservatives are hypocritical corrupt and evil.
Watch these every night.. simply superb
Me too ' near enough ' on You Tube ' used to be on 2 days a week (Mon and Wed)
Same here.
Classic Coronation St has no equal today! Everyone who carried the show is gone!
Apart from Ken Barlow Emily bishop bet lynch Rita fairclough Gail tilsey Mavis and a couple more characters I know jack and Vera Eddie Yates Betty mrs walker albert tatlock Deirdre as passed so sad really we’ve lost some lovely characters
Can't believe Corrie never got Eddie Yates back at sone points over the years. He was one of the best loved characters on the show and he was working a lot over the years.
These are the best Corrie days
They were the absolute best
40 years ago. It’s utter tripe today
Classic Coronation st is different class to Coronation st today. Can't watch it anymore, it's so depressing.
How right you are. I can't watch it either.
Never seen a new episode.
Me either
I stopped watching when Derdie went - watched one other episode after that when Emily feft out of respect for the character and the actree
All the old characters are gone now + the culture is totally different.
I love these fantastic characters of yesteryear great storylines
Such a brilliant decision to cast Jean Alexander as Hilda in 1964! Betty Driver missed out, but joined Corrie in 1969.
Both great characters I think Hilda left in 1987 I’m not sure when Betty Turpin left
As a younger person Hilda made me cringe, now I see her as quite a well developed character. They wrote quite clever retorts to lazy Stan and Eddie (the likeable twicer).
Hilda is so lovely to Eddie, keeping an eye on him
RIP Johnny Briggs.
I love these episodes ❤
Thank you 2 uploads tonight can’t wait keep em coming mate fab watching
Love the vintage budgie cage! They don’t make them like that anymore. Had one back in the day .
Maggie Redmond, the least appealing woman ever. A vile, manipulative, cold fish of a character who I hated from start to finish.
I think she was meant to look like Princess Di with that haircut.
@@Guitargirrrl yes it was all the rage
Gold digger.
Complete C-U-Next-Tuesday
@@Guitargirrrl Anne diamond maybe - Princess Diana is stretchng it a bit
Rita got her new house. Now the mithering really starts.
Good to see Fred sweat for a bit...oily tick!
Ty so much for uploading these episodes great fan from nz here 💓
That Maggie looks the type that would give a man salad for his dinner
That was so funny 😂
She's beyond belief, face like thunder & wen mike wouldn't lend her money that's wen her true self come alive
😂😂

Too right. Eddie should’ve kicked Marion to the kerb & decked Phil… She was one ugly muther… Teeth like an horse… Eddie could’ve done wasyyy better…
@@josephbland3904 he certainly couldn't have done much worse.
Well it was the 80's! 😎
" 2 Pints or would you like the Barrel to jump in" Bet Lynch has the funniest lines and she delivers them perfectly ha ha
Knew I recognised Mrs Chadwick! The actress ( Sue Johnstone) was Sheila Grant on Brookside, then years later ( recently) she was Gladys Denker in Downton Abbey!
Yep, I recognised her from Downton Abbey as well. That show used a lot of cast from coronation street, nice to see that.
She was in Corrie for a decent period as well
@@matthewirwin141 When? Who did she play?

Why is she complaining? if she didn't want kids she could have taken the pill or better still abstained from sex.

Yes i agree Marian was a good looking woman - always reminded me of Queen Victoria for some reason
I think they’re a cute couple and I thought it was great how she went searching for him in Liverpool.
Well said🙂

@@bethshields4903 Exactly right 🌸😊 🌸
What an unfortunate noise when Mike was getting off his settee...
a Benny Hill moment ( 2.17 / 18 ish )
Lm😂😂😂😂.....nothing like trouser on leather to produce a noise that would have had me in hysterics....god I’m childish. 🤪
I remember and loved the 70s & 80s of coronation street, some great characters including the laughs with Stan and Hilda, I also liked bet lynch she also enjoyed a laugh 😅, I also liked jack and Vera for a laugh 😂 and Eddie had a GSOH but all the characters were great 👍
Mikes home has the only straight lamp shade Lol
OMG, the one in Emily's house has me wanting to reach through the screen to straighten it every time I see it.
@@lorraineydays57 lmao, me too.

Fred and his over active breathing every time he wants to stress a point.
It drives me up the wall, specially when you notice his non existence lips while he is huffing and puffing
Don't forget the *sniff* mid-sentence. I love Fred. Cracks me up!
@@frazzleface753 Has to be the worst character and actor ever.
Eddie is too good for marion
Marion too Good for no brain Eddie!!!!! He wants a b#*?!t!!!!!!😅
I wonder if Unc Albert had to take classes on being an absolute misery, perhaps the phrase "misery guts" was born with him...
Horrible old man,rude and ignorant. Aways on the scrounge.
A Fred G. storyline is such fun. Poor Fred nothing comes easily to him.
Someone describing Fred: "It's like trying to deal with a fifteen stone toddler".
Mike's girlfriends a gold digger
Yes keep them coming please🌞
Len lived in no 9 for 14 years from 68 to 82 not 20 odd
Mavis will be able to get undressed now without putting a cover over the cage now she knows the budgie isnt a boy
Fred was a belter 🤣 so funny always worming his way out
If you read other comments about him people hated him but I liked him I tell people it's a character
He made me want to vomit@@robclark4507
I ve never liked him
Seems like 👍🏾 the budgie’s egg 🪺 is causing a big stir. That’s really hilarious 🤣.
Lucky for Fred Brian didn’t go back to Qatar with Ron!
Anyone else notice that the faircloughs new house looks suspiciously like the community centre flat just altered a little
I totally get where Hilda is coming from.. with the you can insult me as much as you like Stan….BUT…..! and Mrs Walker… with her quip about Maggie… brilliant writing beautifully delivered

I don't blame Mike for not lending "Flower Lady" the money. She had a lot of nerve asking. She's got kind of a crazed look.
I think Maggie looks like Gary kemp. I no this much is true? maybe
😂😂
She was at Rita’s house during the party, and she acts like she’s never seen the kitchen! 😂🤣
Brian is the 80’s Heath Ledger!
how was Hilda able to hear craig's drumming two doors down when elsie didn't next door
Hilda has super power hearing.
Super sonic hearing

The Budgie formally known as Harry, beat Prince to it.😂😂
Can’t do with Fred gee he was not a good actor so sure of his self back in the 80s glad they got shut of him👍

One word for FRED GEE. Wet lettuce doin dirty tricks KARMA hits hard😂😂😂
Hey photographer is whiny Kimberly's father 😅
I think Rita should have been nicer about the rugs. They did monkey Chalky around quite a bit. They are going to be next door neighbours as well!
Is it my imagination… or was that Sheila from the royal family … leaving the Rover in Wigan..
I love the budgie egg scenes, very funny
That sofa will have to go.
Emily walking down the street with a bottle of rum in her hand! 😂 She didn’t put her things in a bag!!
Bernard Youens not looking well here...😢
If Brian only has $ 2,000 after all the $$ he made going overseas doesnt add up
Still had to pay all the expenses back home.
And he probably had to send money home to Gail
I didnt realize how creepy Sharon was back then like she was in the 90s and just recently
This Mike and flower lady will not last long! She’s just with him for his money, to try to get what she can out of him!! 😂🤣
Brian so bossy wants everything his way can't stand him or Gail two misery s together
He can't act either has no presence at all talk about wooden
Easy on the eye though
