I like the way that the credits roll past slowly at the end so you have time to READ them.Now they are rushed and you don't have time to respect each member of the cast and crew.Of course there are many more characters nowadays.
@@andyrob3259 was about to say the same thing, it’s not even the same show anymore, it might still be called Coronation Street, but that’s where it ends
We still got ice cream trucks around but it seems not like it was when I was growing up. Back in the late 70s and 80s. They went around from May until October only if the weather was warm outside.
Len Fairclough was one of the few who called Mrs Walker Annie and she in return called him Len - There was a protocol back then ,When i started work in an office older women were always adressed as Mrs so and so or Miss and men older were always Mr so and so - And these older people also mostly called each other Mr Miss or Mrs
That's the way I was raised, adults were Mrs. or Mr., unless told otherwise. Close friends were "Auntie or Uncle". Funnily enough, being raised by Brit Parents in Canada, was raised on Corrie, & my first F/T job was at Granada TV Rental !! I'd been there a few weeks, & the Regional Manager came for a visit, was introduced to him, & I addressed him as "Mr. Dignan". He laughed, & said, I'm John. I was 18, & he was approx 40. I'm still not a fan of small children calling adults by first name. I'm "courtesy" Auntie to my BFF's 2 kids, & sometimes have to correct my nephews when they slip up.
I started work 1976 as office juniour and got £15 a week and was pleased as punch to get that - gave my mum some of it and wasnt skint by the end of the week
Here's a funny Story. The US Self Help Guru Iyanla Vanzant was helping Two Sisters who felt they were Stuck in their lives. As they were having Tea, Iyanla came in with a Bathrobe, Hair Curlers, and a Bandana mortifying her Patients. I told them about Hilda Ogden who worked as many as Three Jobs to make ends meet. She dressed like that because she showed them how bad it was to be stuck in the past.
Wasnt her they say - it did look very much like her tho - perhaps not quite as attractive and a bit more manly looking - maybe it was her and she got told to go away and give herself a bit of a makeover and come back and try again
Hi all, I'm doing some research on 'slum clearances' in 1960s British film and TV and was wondering if anyone had access to a specific episode of Corrie - Episode 565 (11th May 1966). It's where Ena Sharples is shown a new council flat, filmed in Hulme. I cannot find the episode anywhere online - I wondered if it was a lost one, or anyone had a copy they could share with me.
I don't remember her character or David, other than him being the announcer on Picture Box. But heard a lot about them. So it's great to watch them. However, she is a bit irritating but then I found at times Hilda could be as well.
@@Haru23aIn their first episode Irma says in the shop that there had been violence in the previous house and that their two youngest children Tony and Sylvia had been taken off them by social services. Tony and Sylvia were never mentioned again. Trevor ran away to London shortly after their arrival in Coronation Street which was supposed to be a new start. It was the programme's attempt to introduce a grittier problem family. The characterisations were softened somewhat.
I left a comment about Ena but I spelled it wrong Edit 😅 on another episode but can’t find it to fix . I watched with me mom in Ireland about 1960 ish and Ena was so old then. Now I’m older than Ena in 2021 lol . But I hope I don’t have her grumpy face 😠
If this is right, it’s the year, month and day I was born. I remember Bet Lynch taking over the Rovers but didn’t realise she had been in it for so long and first appearance the day I was born, by heck…………
What does Annie say at 20:25? She's shouting at Jack after finding out Lucille will be starting work at the factory. It sounds like she says "Don't you 'Annie' me, Jack Walker. That girl is our responsibility and you've made a f**kin mess of things". They tend to leave line fluffs in the episodes but guessing that wouldn't be one of them!
My cousin (in Lincolnshire), her fiance had an ice cream round on the weekends, to earn more to buy a house, which they did before their wedding, Aug 1970. He preferred it when she didn't go along for the ride, said she ate all his profits !! They still live in that house, lots of improvements over the yrs, but only paid 4K sterling.
Can anybody help me at 51 seconds on this video he orders a couple of tins of something but I can't understand what the food is hes asking for? It sounds like he's saying " a couple of tins of "Oscar Bob" ?????
Life is not all lovey-dovey. Sometimes its gritty. This is called realism, and its the world most of us live in. How are your 'larks tongues' today, they're so difficult for cook to get right......?
Watching this almost 58 years in the future.....if they only knew.
Are you a relation of Mrs Walker! 🤔😉
6:10 Enter another legend......Bet Lynch.
18 years later, she ended up running the place.
Up there with the best
I hope she is. Saw her in another episode and wasn’t impressed.
I thought Stan was the milkman? When did he change profession?
@Coronation Street Storyline ok great!
@Coronation Street Storyline Peter Susan ok 👍
This was the first EVER appearance of Bet Lynch.
No. She was seen in 1965 in the Rovers - Ena Sharples bumped into her.
Love Irma I use to play near her bungalow where she lived in OLDHAM back in the 60s👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
She’s fabulous.
Oh wow that was lucky - I always loved Irma - I was only a little boy but i found her really funny and glamerous
Brings back memories watching this with my poppy and nan in the early 70s
The good ole days!

And very few of them worthy of respect.
That because it’s not worth knowing their names. They’ll be no bodies in the click of an eye.

Wow, Bet Lynch 1st appearance, looks like a school girl skiving from school 😂

Thks for showing these, I’ve even not see these..bit early for me, but I used to watch it always with my mum must have been about 1968...

Yet Albert Tatlock addressed Ena as Mrs Sharples, and she addressed him as Albert. Odd that........
Jack was such a great guy they don't make like that anymore..RIP JACK
Yes a true gentleman
Eeeee Annie love....
How the accent has changed... its mellowed a lot
Great to see this one. Thanks for posting.
Bett Lynch's first appearance.
Ty so much for uploading these episodes great fan from nz here here ❤
Albert Tatlock was born that age.
Ha! That’s a funny observation - and true!
He's a walking garbage disposal always soppon or stuffin his gob
Grief-Bet used to wear her hair like Hilda!
15 quid in 1966 would be, including inflation, about £237.88 today.
How did you work that out. ?
Thanks.
I started work 1976 as office juniour and got £15 a week and was pleased as punch to get that - gave my mum some of it and wasnt skint by the end of the week
I thought he said Bob
Mrs. Sharpels never changed including her hair net
15 quid a week that was a mini fortune i would say for a teenager in 1966.
Yes i started work 10 years later in 1976 and only got £15 a week then
Yes my first job I earned 8 pounds a week and I saved hard for my first house .

10:48 Short skirts - Annie W. "I just don't know what things are coming to." Len F. "Another three inches and we'll find out!"
Annie & Jack Walker remind me so much of Nels & Harriet Oleson on Little House On The Prairie.
Haha i never thought about that i see what you mean tho
Love the Ogdens… especially Hilda
Oh, raspberry vinegar, the good old days 😊
didn't Julie Goodyear appear earlier as a cafe worker at the station when Lucille eloped?
Wasnt her they say - it did look very much like her tho - perhaps not quite as attractive and a bit more manly looking - maybe it was her and she got told to go away and give herself a bit of a makeover and come back and try again
Yes it was her

I love watching these old episodes.... not to be rude, I never understood the attraction of Irma.
I don't remember her character or David, other than him being the announcer on Picture Box. But heard a lot about them. So it's great to watch them. However, she is a bit irritating but then I found at times Hilda could be as well.
Stan was quite a jolly chap, not afraid of hard work...sad to see him decline in later years traipsing behind Eddie Yates.
Read his bio. He used to beat Hilda in drunken rages and their children were taken into state care.
@@Haru23a no he never
Thats because bernard had a stroke which affected his speech
@@Haru23a a made up bio. Yes I’ve read them but not sure who actually created them?
@@Haru23aIn their first episode Irma says in the shop that there had been violence in the previous house and that their two youngest children Tony and Sylvia had been taken off them by social services.

Now I’m older than Ena in 2021 lol . But I hope I don’t have her grumpy face 😠
When did David Barlow start working in the shop.
Wow look how young lady bet lynch was
Lol I was married to a bonnetti
bet lynch!!
Bert Lynch played by Julian Goodyear.
Tbe guy that goes into the shop who ended up being Martha's lodger? Where do I know him from?
He was also in Brookside
Clockwork Orange....A bit of the old 'ultra-violence' in Coronation Street 😱
@@wiking08 lol that's not him out of clockwork orange!
Randal and Hopkirk deceased

Hiya, The Ice Cream Truck . My Father was one. 1969
. Honestly. Kirkcaldy Fife Scotland Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝

Ruth Winter-probably not, but you could imagine she was related to Gemma! (I know they hadn’t even thought of Gemma in the 60s, but...)
Hi Auntie Corrie, would you happen to have the episode before this 16th May 1966?
Bet lynch first appearance!!!!
Can anybody help me at 51 seconds on this video he orders a couple of tins of something but I can't understand what the food is hes asking for? It sounds like he's saying " a couple of tins of "Oscar Bob" ?????
A couple of tins of "nosh" for Bobby.....cat food, lol.
Did Ena Sharples get done for shoplifting
Mrs Bonetti has a nerve calling Stan ‘Fatty’. She’s not slim, is she?
Lucille got 5 O levels so I can remember.🤔
10 /10
He said Cassius Clay not Muhammad Ali.
Which is what his name was back then.
@@andyrob3259 growing up it was Cassius Clay than later Muhammad.
Before he was converted to Islam
God, what ghastly people. I don't know why people watched this stuff.

@@artrandy Sod off you sanctimonious twit.
Irma was hilarious
Lila Kaye as Stan's ice cream rival also appeared as the Landlady of The Slaughtered Lamb in An American Werewolf In London
