When I'm feeling down I watch some Blanche one liners. This really was the best scene on corrie and cemented Blanche as my favorite character in Corrie history.
Not only comedic gold, this has to be one of the most well written scenes in recent Corrie (in fact recent soap) history. All four main actors deliver it perfectly (a sign of how close it would seem they were in real life as well as on screen) and all the guest actors and extras do the same. It's also a reminder of what wonderful actors Maggie Jones and Anne Kirkbride were, what a wonderful on screen partnership they had as mother and daughter and how sadly they are missed from the cobbles!
"Ken recently had an affair with an actress...she lived on a tug..." "They're like a pair of swingers..." "I'm not totally comfortable with your halitosis..."
Blanche: "Ken Recentley had an affair with an actress. It wasn't Nicole Kidman or Glenda Jackson, she lived in a tug boat." Ken: "It was a barge" Peter: "Is it any wonder I drink" hahahahahah
Having a shit time at the moment, but my God, this episode clip was probably one of the best comedy scenes if not the best comedy scene ever! It was just fantastic
Corrie writes take note. This is quality with great writing, well cast with other actors at the meeting...just flowed with humor but with some home truths beneath the surface.
4:32........Blanche just waiting for the opportunity to jump in and fuck things up for everyone. You can see the excitement on her face as she spills the Barlow's dirty secrets!! Hyperventilating!
I wish Blanche and Deirdre were both still alive and in Coronation Street. Blanche will have a flaming field day with some of the stuff that's happened in the past decade or so with all the dramas, affairs and murders etc.
Lol, ken had an affair, his step daughter tracy is inside for murder, peters an alcoholic with the step gran from hell with her put downs! What a family! Love them so much especially blanche I miss her so much :(
This is so 180% from an US Soap Opera AA Meeting. There'd be "We Love You, You Need Help, You Can Get Better, etc." On Guiding Light McKenzie Phillips played an AA Sponsor/Psychiatrist and it wasn't until about Three Years Ago did she finally get clean and sober. She's the Daughter of John Phillips of The Mamas & Papas who abused her, did 90 Days of a Eight Year Suspended Sentence Got Fired from One Day At A Time (Her TV Show), and did a Celebrity Rehab Show where he Roommate would later kill herself. She was also a Grade A Hoarder but finally got peace.

Classic. RIP Anne and Maggie.
Ah Blanche what an absolute legend you were Corrie is not the same without you. r.i.p Maggie
I totally agree
'What do you think I'm doing, chewing corn for gummy parrots?' RIP Blanch!
One of the funniest families on the street. Yes they had their dramas but the love was there for all to see.
This is one of the best episodes ever.
"Well it didn't make Tracey hit the bottle"
"Nooo, but it made her hit her boyfriend with a blunt instrument"
I love herrrr!!

It's scenes like this that really put the storylines in perspective. "No, but it made her hit her boyfriend with a blunt instrument." Ha!
Only blanche could get away with what she said lol. One of the best clips
Pure comedy gold
I remember seeing this at the time still think it's hilarious lol
Blanche: "Ken Recentley had an affair with an actress. It wasn't Nicole Kidman or Glenda Jackson, she lived in a tug boat." Ken: "It was a barge" Peter: "Is it any wonder I drink" hahahahahah
That's superb. That never happens at our meetings.
Dierdre "hi... Ken" 😂😂😂
This scene is just a classic. Blanche's sarcastic remarks are the best.
Having a shit time at the moment, but my God, this episode clip was probably one of the best comedy scenes if not the best comedy scene ever! It was just fantastic
"Watch It she'll be coming on to you next" CLASSIC
6:04 grossly unfair 😂

Corrie writes take note. This is quality with great writing, well cast with other actors at the meeting...just flowed with humor but with some home truths beneath the surface.
Melanie: "I am very uncomfortable with this woman here!"
Blanche: "And I am uncomfortable with your halitosis!"
LOL; classic line!
'Chewing corn for gummy parrots'. Wonderful.
A classic. Pure and simple 😂.
Maggie Jones died 7 years ago today - RIP Maggie - you were fabulous!

i would just call them comedians same as anyone else no need to change the word cos their women
BLANCHE IS QUEEN!

Good ol' Barlows ;)
Comedy joy!
Makes me laugh when the lady says there seems to be a lot of residual anger flying around here if u ask me? And blanch just says we didn't!!!
Blanche was the only reason I watched Corrie. This clip is so funny. RIP
Deirdre constantly says "Mother" ahhah
😂😂😂😂 I love Blanche
BLANCHE IS FABULOUS

I wish Blanche and Deirdre were both still alive and in Coronation Street. Blanche will have a flaming field day with some of the stuff that's happened in the past decade or so with all the dramas, affairs and murders etc.

Peter looks sooo much better now without the sideburns and with the beard.
'Anything's better than 'Loose Women'!

Blanche was hilarious and should've been a comedian!!
Such a heavy shame Blanche and the actress(Maggie Jones) both left this planet
I think Blanche was the last one that had humour and also Deidre.
I think the shows gone down hill now sadly!

LOL Hahahaha
Maggie Jones has died in 2009
That's kind of the point of the scene?
Lol
Anne K has died in 2015
And....
LOL.....I love how this degenerates into farce :D
Blanche should have worked for the Samaritans imo!
i really miss Blanche she makes me laugh

Step 8, We made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them
all.
We admitted that we were powerless over alcohol and that our lives had become unmanageable.
The discussion in these meetings can only pertain to alcoholism. I've sat in on open meetings so Iknow what AA is about.
classic
