Awww thanks for the update, very sad news. Christopher Coll was excellent in the role of Victor Pendlebury, and he played some fine comedy scenes over the years. How fantastic that his work endures, and continues to bring pleasure to countless people who never met him in person, through the miracle of video (and RUclips!).

@@glamdolly30 Hi,..thanks,and yes,..Christopher Coll was great as Victor,..a great character. Also thanks for telling me about John Savadent.That is so sad.I didn't know,and was only watching him early yesterday in 1998 episodes.A great actor.I think his first acting role was a small scene in a film with Richard Attenborough called Around Eight O'Clock 1954 . I saw him a while ago in a good episode of Juliet Bravo,called Amatuer Night from 1982, & the main character was played by Ken Farrington ,(Billy Walker from Crnt st),which now has unfortunately been removed from everywhere. .. And I.know exactly what you mean about video making everyone seem immortal etc.I have said the same type of thing to people myself,yet they usually just don't get it,and tell me to stop latching on to the past,and move on etc. I find the saddest ones are cine film home videos from when I was a child with relatives on them which many have long since died now,and seems surreal,so nice, & so sad at the same time. .. Take care .Ps .. here is a scene with Christopher Coll in Minder ( The Son Also Rises -Episode)as a probation officer,in more of a serious roll,..he was quite a versitile actor .. at the begninning of the episode,then from 1.17 to 2.37 ruclips.net/video/opezJ4F9EK4/видео.html
Sad to see Stan unwell you can notice the slurring of speech and the way he moves that he is unwell in real life not sure between the story timeline and Bernards real life how long we have until Stan passes? Such fine actors and a perfect pair God bless them for what they have given to us the public
@Kevinasp He had been going steadily downhill since his stroke in '75. He was a different man before that, but the decline in his health was rapid over his last couple of years
It is very sad to watch his decline but I am impressed that the higher ups kept him employed. Speaks for their respect for him. I doubt you'd find that kind of support in today's world. Reminded me of Lila on General Hospital she was years in a huge wheelchair.
Hello ProfessionalGun 66, I had been watching September, October , November 1982 and tonight it says video not available. I panicked in case the rest of these great episodes were gone but thankfully they are still here. I have been watching these over and over and love this channel. Thank you again.
@@professionalgun6674 Oh I hope not! I've been watching these videos for a year now and hardly bother with anything else. Thank you for uploading them.
@@tinaquinn9042 These great episodes are so much better than the Coronation Street of today. The actors were so natural and the storylines so believable.
@@nitad4203 they are great and realistic my poor mum used to work like hilda that time she would have all the cleaning jobs for the posh ones she would even iron their clothes for them and get the hand me downs of them it's when you get older you know your parents got it hard
The show's first 25 years were epic and secured many awards. They deserve a place in a U.K. museum of culture. I've not watched tv or read a newspaper for 30+ years, since the massive political campaign got serious - to turn the U.K. into an all-black homosexual haven. But, thanks to RUclips one can revert back to much better days.
Eddie is an interesting character. They were basically recycling the Jed Stone "sunny Jim" character from the 1960s. A Scouse chancer with a criminal record who kept older characters company. Like a lot of soaps they seemed to like recycling character types. They also did it with Percy Sugden replacing Uncle Albert as the grumpy old man, and Jack and Vera replacing Stan and Hilda as the comedy married couple.
Mavis being cross with Emily is a comedy acting masterpiece by Thelma Barlow, unbeatable by any actress ANYWHERE. And the support, especially from Rita - Barbara Knox - who just looks more and more astonished - is pure comedy gold too. Just wonderful.
Both Mavis & Fred Gee should be paired up! Both act like spoiled infants having a temper tantrums! Theres nothing worse to witness Than a mature adult behaving in this jaw dropping fashion What a pair of losers They deserve each other. Such petulance & spite with no manners or self control makes them unworthy of respect & Making proper fools of themselves, expecting the world to owe them a living! Ive not one shred of sympathy for people like these two!😝 Cheers 🇬🇧👧
Else and Hilda having a slanging match in the street, it wasn’t the 1st time this happened, but both played fantastic characters, oh look it’s phylis Pearce another great character
Hilda would have made a good wife for someone who was actually hard working, she really did want to do well in life and I am glad she got a good ending.
@@bazgent What? That's a first, I've never seen a negative comment about Hilda here before. She's arguably 'Coronation Street's' all time, best loved character. And rightly so, in my not so humble opinion!
That's a very insightful post. You're right, Hilda was a one woman, human dynamo, who kept the roof over their heads, and put food in their bellies. Stan's reluctant window cleaning was just beer money - it was Hilda's hard work and determination that kept them both afloat over the years. I always thought it was so sad they didn't get any support - financial or emotional - from the two children they had. They must have struggled to feed and clothe them - and what gratitude did they ever see? Irma Ogden vanished from the Street in the early 'Seventies, and eventually it was mentioned she'd emigrated to Canada. And Trevor Ogden lived just a drive away, doing well in some sort of accountancy role, but he never even invited his parents for Christmas, or just to stay for the weekend. As for financial help - forget it. Weasel-faced Trevor once turned up at the Ogdens' out of the blue because he'd heard about an inheritance they received, and he wanted a 'loan'. Sadly it's very true to life - good, hard working folk like Hilda often raise selfish kids, who are all take, take, take. Hilda made a very big mistake in marrying Stan when she was a naive young girl, with stars in her eyes - she wound up having to carry him every step of the way! Her lifestyle only really took off, once she was widowed. There's a lesson there for women methinks!
Betty Driver was a vegetarian and couldn't "cook a hotpot" to save her life. She originally auditioned for the role of Hilda Ogden but they wanted a woman of slighter build.
Nearly all of November 1982 seems missing, which is a shame as it was during that month when the Sharon-Brian shenanigans came to a head, leading to a cold war between Len and Brian - as I remember; and also the con man storyline involving Elsie, which resulted in Eddie losing his savings and running away. Hope these episodes turn up sometime.
I think that you can type in the missing episode number to locate what is not available in this omnibus. Read comments for Sept/Oct/Nov for more information. Professional Gun 66 has explained
Can't believe watching this that Pat Phoenix had only 4 more years to live after this, and Jack Howarth (Albert) and Bernard Youens (Stan) had only 2 years.
Hilda ( to Elsie) “Ooo, the trouble you bring to this street!” as if Elsie’s a relative newcomer. Ironic when, apart from Ken, Annie and Albert, Elsie’s the only original character on it!
Marian reminds me of a famous American Hootenanny or big band singer called Tessie O Shay or something similar ( or probably was nothing like that at all 😆) Maybe even Two Ton Tessie She was a big beautiful lady with a huge voice, blonde hair, colourful dresses & ALWAYS smiling This singer did indeed resemble Marian, the small pointed nose Crinkly smiley eyes & those large prominent front teeth! I knew Marian reminded me of someone & ive racked my brains thinking of who? Then just a few mins ago the answer just sprang into my memory It was Two Ton Tessie O Shay Belting out the songs in the 1940s or 50s onwards Thanks PG66 🇬🇧👧
Jack Duckworth or actor Bill Tarmey Is or was a really good piano player in real life! Hes been featured a few times in his cups, belting out some old favourites on the "Joanna" in the Rovers Return He sings too! Many of the older actors started in variety acts before they got into acting. We all know Rita Littlewood was a damn good singer, but so was Vera, Ivy ( who did stand up comedy with her famous comedian brother Dougie Brown) Ive also heard Audrey Potter sing With a good voice Hmmm who else? Of course there was the multi talented Dennis Tanner, Elsies son. Ena Sharples ( Violet Carson) Was also an accomplished piano player. But the best of them all?? Our Hilda! What a voice! Could charm the birds down from the trees ( most likely Vultures lol) Hilda cheers us all with her sights always on improving her status & living a stylish lifestyle Its all she ever wanted!

Its all she dreamed of I remember when she dragged Stan up a muddy hill in his Sunday Best to view a new Show House on a new housing Estate In awe & wonder she went from room to room, her eyes as wide & innocent as a childs, telling Stan I never realised THIS was how the other half lived... Its like a dream come true, even just walking through these beautiful rooms Id have loved to have seen the scriptwriters put some good fortune, the Ogdens way Like a unknown relative leaving One of them an inheritance Or their Pools coming up or them winning a home, or getting some Premium Bonds shell out It wouldnt have harmed their characters or storyline to see them in their lovely home with " Murials" on the walls of every room, the Flying Ducks all over The great big dining table spread with HP sauce & bottles of Ale Posh dinner service holding Doorstep wedges of inch thick Fried bread, chips, sausage, eggs & beans!!!

@glamdolly30 I am trying to reply to your lovely comment from an hour ago but it won’t let me. So trying this. Happiest of New Years to you too my corrie buddy for years now from Australia 😊
@@bethshields4903 Aww bless you Beth - I get that same issue sometimes when I try to post a reply too, it appears to be posted, yet when I go back to check, there's no sign of it! Weird, and very frustrating! Well you foxed 'the gremlins, and got this through to me regardless, and I thank for for your sweet message. It's a real joy to read your witty, wise and always entertaining comments on sublime vintage Corrie episodes. It's a tradition with me now to seek out late 'seventies/early 'eighties episodes from the Street. I guess because I watched them as a kid they bring back my childhood Christmases, which were very happy ones. I didn't realise you are in Australia - so it must be your Summer right now. I spent Christmas and New Year in Australia back in 2005/6, I found it so surreal celebrating the festive season in the sweltering heat of Brisbane, Port Douglas, Sydney and the Blue Mountains! I'm curious - Are you Aussie born and bred, or are you British and emigrated? Sending you and yours so much love and positive energy for 2024, on this New Year's Day! Big hug. XXX 🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐
@@glamdolly30I’m having the same issues so I’m trying again. I am migrated here in 1964 with my parents I was nine. There was my older brother and my sister who was just a baby. I have been back twice for the last time was 1980. I still have a proper strong Scottish accent I’ve never lost it. And I never watch anything on TV but British shows. Once a Brit always a Brit! And I love these episodes of curries and make me happy too. Hope you get this😊
Hilda makes me laugh 😆 she argues with Elsie on the street but as a cheek to ask her for a packet of lard or a cup of milk, Elsie should learn to say “no” to Hilda I ❤the old ones of Corrie
With regarding my earlier comment, if this had had been in present times, Ken could have just said to Deidre that they would watch it later on on catch up TV.
The return of Bert "you know what I mean" Tilsley, thankfully without the "you know what I mean". As much as I liked his character, I got pig sick after 3 years of listening to him saying it every 15 seconds.
Oh my Mavis drive me up the wall, not wanting to dance at any point, expecting him not to dance and then leaving in a cream puff ;-). Then getting all moody with Emily and Victor when they did nothing wrong. No wonder she sits on the side-lines of life. Bloody hell she is hard work.
Oh dear I've been watching these uploads since the mid 1960s but I'm double tapping more and more, the early to late 1970s were the best, I'm up to December 1982 so Annie walker will be leaving soon plus Stan Ogden dies etc so I won't be content with Brian and Gayle flipping Tilsley 😡
I think Marion must be puddled. She keeps finishing with Eddie then swanning back talking absolute twaddle. She also needs to stop pulling those gormless faces. She looks like she's breaking those teeth in for Red Rum.
Nice Sherlock Holmes detective work by Marion….I suppose Sharon was simply written out of the story because it made sense for her to stay. Seeing father and son leave for Australia made me homesick for Australia of forty years ago. It was a good place to emigrate to until anytime before 2000. It has been destroyed by globalists and modern times are just vile. No wonder we love the nostalgia generated by these episodes. I love Elsie Tanner, the Ogdens and their surrogate families. The Duckies finished off their time on Coronation as worthy successors and evolved into the last of the legends. Perhaps their relationship with Tyrone was one of the few reasons to keep watching. I think many people can identify with having strong bonds with their lodgers.
Couldn't agree more about Australia - it has been ruined as you say. It was the best place in the world in the 80s, when the Whitelys emigrated in this storyline. It's awful now and getting worse.
@@LadyOfShaIottI can remember when the most upsetting thing that could possibly happen was when your favourite thongs broke and you had to break in a new pair. It truly was a no worries country.
@@cicerodiello1 Absolutely! Now it’s going the same way as Britain; crime-ridden cities. It’s not the country of Crocodile Dundee anymore, worse luck 😢
Marian looks different somehow Maybe its because shes much thinner & its altered her face alot? Anyway she really suits it It becomes her & her hair style is much nicer too I think Marian is really cute & looks great with big Teddy Eddie Regards 🇬🇧👧
Omg poor Bert Tilsley 😔 due to his court case etc he doesn't even sound like Bert due to a massive stroke due to stress, poor fella died at 46😔 I wish he was gay in this era
Very amused by how people say oh they're always staring at their phones these days. I see a lot of scenes of people staring at their newspapers while people are talking, no different
He is. I am still trying to work out why. It's not like he has achieved much of a career, he has always lived in someone else's house and he didn't even bring up his own kids, uncle Albert went to see them more than he did.

The start of the Deirdre, Ken, Mike love triangle
Deirdre has my entire sympathies being married to someone as patronising and boring as Dalek Ken and having to live with cantankerous Albert.
@@ria1636 Yes, the only surprise is that she hooked up with Ken at all.
13:20 a classic verbal brawl, on the street, avec Elsie and Hilda ⚡😅⚡
Both Bill Tarmey and Elizabeth Dawn were fantastic club singers.
1:27:00 For a minute there, I could have sworn the rag doll's legs in long bloomers belonged to Deirdre!
Haha, brilliant!
@@professionalgun6674 I thought to myself: "By 'eck - no wonder Mike Baldwin's soon sniffing round Deirdre, with her flaunting her lacy underpinnings like that at every opportunity!"
@glamdolly30 I am trying to reply to your lovely comment from an hour ago but it won’t let me. So trying this. Happiest of New Years to you too my corrie buddy for years now from Australia 😊
@@bethshields4903 Aww bless you Beth - I get that same issue sometimes when I try to post a reply too, it appears to be posted, yet when I go back to check, there's no sign of it! Weird, and very frustrating!
Well you foxed 'the gremlins, and got this through to me regardless, and I thank for for your sweet message. It's a real joy to read your witty, wise and always entertaining comments on sublime vintage Corrie episodes. It's a tradition with me now to seek out late 'seventies/early 'eighties episodes from the Street. I guess because I watched them as a kid they bring back my childhood Christmases, which were very happy ones.
I didn't realise you are in Australia - so it must be your Summer right now. I spent Christmas and New Year in Australia back in 2005/6, I found it so surreal celebrating the festive season in the sweltering heat of Brisbane, Port Douglas, Sydney and the Blue Mountains!
I'm curious - Are you Aussie born and bred, or are you British and emigrated?
Sending you and yours so much love and positive energy for 2024, on this New Year's Day! Big hug. XXX 🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐🎉🍾⭐
@@glamdolly30I’m having the same issues so I’m trying again. I am migrated here in 1964 with my parents I was nine. There was my older brother and my sister who was just a baby. I have been back twice for the last time was 1980. I still have a proper strong Scottish accent I’ve never lost it. And I never watch anything on TV but British shows. Once a Brit always a Brit! And I love these episodes of curries and make me happy too. Hope you get this😊
Well, unknown to Sharon, I don’t think she sees Len again-she comes back for his funeral. 😢😢
Two future Brookside cast members appear here, Gladys Ambrose and John McArdle.
And last month Sue Johnston, too!
Len and Rita acting as if Sharon were going to the other side of the moon - not Sheffield!
My thoughts exactly
The gem of a scene with Stan & Hilda all dressed for dinner & Mrs Walker looking incredulous 😅
Fred was unexpectedly gallant about the gift exchange at the Christmas staff party! I have a soft spot for him and Stan - bless them!
Hilda makes me laugh 😆 she argues with Elsie on the street but as a cheek to ask her for a packet of lard or a cup of milk, Elsie should learn to say “no” to Hilda I ❤the old ones of Corrie
2:39:51 could anyone else see the reflection in the top left hand corner?
With regarding my earlier comment, if this had had been in present times, Ken could have just said to Deidre that they would watch it later on on catch up TV.
I think they had VHS but perhaps not recording from the TV. I'm pretty sure they did in the US by this time
Billy Corkhill at 58:41 ...
God Stan and Hilda .. Could break your heart ❤️ 😢
The return of Bert "you know what I mean" Tilsley, thankfully without the "you know what I mean". As much as I liked his character, I got pig sick after 3 years of listening to him saying it every 15 seconds.
That and "yes my sweet". Sends me savage.
He seems very subdued here, I know he had some personal and health problems, I was shocked to read he died at my age, only 48.
He was up on charges of indecency but was let back into the show.....and he had a stroke due to the stress of it.
Oh my Mavis drive me up the wall, not wanting to dance at any point, expecting him not to dance and then leaving in a cream puff ;-). Then getting all moody with Emily and Victor when they did nothing wrong. No wonder she sits on the side-lines of life. Bloody hell she is hard work.
It must have been absolutely exhausting for Thelma Barlow as an actor to portray Mavis! I wonder who she based her on.
Spinsters are forever emotionally unhinged. Seems to be the thing with many young singles today. Mavis was ahead of the curve 😂
Oh dear I've been watching these uploads since the mid 1960s but I'm double tapping more and more, the early to late 1970s were the best, I'm up to December 1982 so Annie walker will be leaving soon plus Stan Ogden dies etc so I won't be content with Brian and Gayle flipping Tilsley 😡
3:15:21 the start of Coronation Street’s biggest storyline.
I think Marion must be puddled. She keeps finishing with Eddie then swanning back talking absolute twaddle. She also needs to stop pulling those gormless faces. She looks like she's breaking those teeth in for Red Rum.
hahahahahahah, she does!
You're right
Lol 🐴🤪🤣🤣
i hope Red Rum was suitably offended !
Superb.lol.😂
Nice Sherlock Holmes detective work by Marion….I suppose Sharon was simply written out of the story because it made sense for her to stay. Seeing father and son leave for Australia made me homesick for Australia of forty years ago. It was a good place to emigrate to until anytime before 2000. It has been destroyed by globalists and modern times are just vile. No wonder we love the nostalgia generated by these episodes. I love Elsie Tanner, the Ogdens and their surrogate families. The Duckies finished off their time on Coronation as worthy successors and evolved into the last of the legends. Perhaps their relationship with Tyrone was one of the few reasons to keep watching. I think many people can identify with having strong bonds with their lodgers.
Couldn't agree more about Australia - it has been ruined as you say. It was the best place in the world in the 80s, when the Whitelys emigrated in this storyline. It's awful now and getting worse.
@@LadyOfShaIottI can remember when the most upsetting thing that could possibly happen was when your favourite thongs broke and you had to break in a new pair. It truly was a no worries country.
@@cicerodiello1 Absolutely! Now it’s going the same way as Britain; crime-ridden cities. It’s not the country of Crocodile Dundee anymore, worse luck 😢
Marian looks different somehow
Maybe its because shes much thinner & its altered her face alot?
Anyway she really suits it
It becomes her & her hair style is much nicer too
I think Marian is really cute & looks great with big Teddy Eddie
Regards
🇬🇧👧
I was watching corrie tonight,the 2025 ones up to date, absolutely diabolical, you wouldnt know it was the same show...very sad 😢
Mavis ought to have been arrested for wearing that hideous dress to that dance!
How about the ribbon she had in the back of her hair, while in the flat with Victor....
@@bsaunders5271 , aye the ribbon was smashing.....not.
Mavis should be transported to the beginning of the 19th century, permanently!
What in the world was wrong with her?
Glad sharon went she got on my nerves awful voice .
Who"s this knickerless Nicolby character Rita mentoned - im sure ive heard the name before
Which year is the one where they’ve been together for 40 years? Where bet shouts belt up?
Pat Phoenix fluffing her lines again.
And looking fabulous whilst doing it 🤣
She really was the worst in the cast for that!
She must be forgiven due to her overall wonderfulness though.
A lot of them fluff their lines.
So sad too see so many of the cast struck down with strokes .tatlock sounds permanently drunk,can't understand a word he says
I have been binge watching from the very start, do miss Ena Sharples and Minnnie Caldwell
Marion has a nerve she ran off with her boyfriend then lays into eddie shes a miserable cow .
Uncle Albert was a miserable coot.
I wonder if they drank the same beer as Cheers, they said it was call "near beer."
I'm still convinced that Hilda's hat is made out of Marzipan.
Omg poor Bert Tilsley 😔 due to his court case etc he doesn't even sound like Bert due to a massive stroke due to stress, poor fella died at 46😔 I wish he was gay in this era
So if Deirdre can relent, couldn’t Ken do the same and agree to go to the country club for Christmas ( and let her see Blanche-her mother??)
I guess this is all leading to the famous love triangle!
No because it's not convenient for what he wants... horrible f***
So sad these clips with Stan he doesn’t look too well what a brilliant actor Stan is 👍👍👍
Susan1958 He had a stroke and died a year later in real life aged just 62.
Carrying a lot of weight as we would say.
Bernard was also a very heavy smoker.his legs were amputated shortly before his death god bless him.jean left shortly after his death.
@@paullynton-green6570 Poor man. Thank you.
Poor Bert, he'd had a stroke in real life by this point, they disguise it as an accident.
Gownless evening straps😂,did fred mean to say strapless evening gown..😂
Sharon, acting, charector is Vile
Very amused by how people say oh they're always staring at their phones these days. I see a lot of scenes of people staring at their newspapers while people are talking, no different
Thank goodness Marrion found Eddie and didnt end up sex traffiked
Ken is so smug all the time.t
Don’ like him at all
He is.
I am still trying to work out why. It's not like he has achieved much of a career, he has always lived in someone else's house and he didn't even bring up his own kids, uncle Albert went to see them more than he did.
Feel sorry for Bert here. He looks unwell. I read up on him and this was after he suffered a stroke in real life.
That red suitcase is shared by the whole street! And why is it it whatever change goes in any till, you can hear its the only coin in there! 😂
2:16:23 what was Emily folding?
It looks like a serviette/napkin,and for some reason she is folding it into a fancy shape..,- like the ones in front of her on the left of the screen
"Is it true that I will sink if you take your finger out, Mr. Fairclough?"
21:02. Mrs Walker: As for D H Lawrence, having dipped into that dreadful book.
Bet: Never made a daisy chain since, have you Mrs Walker? 🤣🤣🤣
Those factory girls all need to be fired! They take too many liberties. Holy crap they wouldn't get away with that anywhere else 😮
Betty pulls a good pint
Betty Driver ran a pub in real life...
@@TheMeeja thanks for that
She ran The Cock Hotel in Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire with her sister Freda.
Eddie's girlfriend is annoying now.
