The weird thing is, the actress who played Blanche (Maggie Jones) actually never found her character to be funny - Blanche is defo a corrie classic and her witty remarks and aserbic tongue were the best
Tis a pity they don't write jokes like that now in fear of not being politically correct. RIP Maggie Jones, a great actress who played a great character.
LOL Blanche was a one-off. One of the greatest soap characters ever. EastEnders' closest to Blanche were Lou Beale and at times Peggy Mitchell, but neither were as funny as this! :D
'And your grandchild & my great-grandchild. Oh no, I'm not having this baby being brought up by two men! Even if one of them does wear a frock!' - Typical local gossip Blanche being brutally honest about Roy & Hayley Cropper whom she once described them as the 'freak show who run the cafe' because of Roy who may have learning difficulties & Hayley being a transgender. 😂
Blanch n Deirdre.... tre heart and soul of corrie... how vicious a comment "I'm not having my grand child brought up by 2 men even if one of them does wear a blouse" haaaa
That “I’m. It having this baby brought up by two men, even if one of them does wear a frock”. The outrage there would be at that these days!!! Even though there might be some trans people who find it funny.
I miss the likes of Blanche, Deidre, Jack and Vera. Rest in peace all of them 🙁
Not only did she have the best lines, but the way she articulated words made them even funnier.
Blanche is a legend speaks her mind
She must've been a sagittarius😂😜
"I wouldn't have thought Roy Cropper were capable!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Blanche and Deirdre were amazing :)
Rip to both of them legends
Agreed
Oh how i miss Blanche.
"I'm not having this child brought up by two men, even if one of them does wear a frock!"
"MOTHER..."
"DON'T YOU MOTHER ME!"
😂😂😂
🤣🤣😭😭😂😂
i know but people are like that
they just don't have gifted comedy characters like Blanche these days in corrie!

Her attitude was hilarious and funny and spoke the truth in her eyes but it stank
Blanche had the best one liners out of any soap character ever
we need more Blanch's in this world.
Blanche is a corrie legend
Blanche was one of the best actresses ❤ watching her even today.
"im not having this baby brought up by two men, even if one of them does wear a frock" lol!
Motheeeer!

Tis a pity they don't write jokes like that now in fear of not being politically correct. RIP Maggie Jones, a great actress who played a great character.
Homophobic Blanche
Imagine that line now...the PC brigade would jump on it so quickly and would try to cancel corrie
Blanche was brilliant. JUst like the classic black and white days.
Blanche tells it how it is! She says exactly what real folk think wish she was still here........... Miss you Blanche.

"And we all thought he were Temperance" good God the script was amazing back then.
RIP Maggie Hunt
A masterpiece
