Love watching these classic coronation Street episodes again. I was 15 back when these episodes were shown and had a crush on Shirley from the factory 😍❤️
Hello! I am really enjoying watching these great golden oldies! Thank you for uploading them for us all to enjoy! Much appreciated! .... Incidentally, has anyone else noticed the striking resemblance between our Audrey and Queen Camilla??? They are both beautiful looking ladies and they could easily pass for twin sisters! .... Kind Regards, from The UK! xxxxx
You said it. I always thought it pretty weird that this Susan and later her brother Peter when he shows up, that neither one had even a trace of a Glasgow accent despite the fact they were both brought up there. I was brought up there only till the age of 12 and I STILL have my Scottish accent. I'm 70 now 🤣
1:09:25 conversation between Terry and Gloria was laden with double entendre. Nowadays, the switchboard would meltdown with the perpetually outraged 😂😂
To be fair, even Ken appears to have forgotten about Mike Baldwin. The times over this past year of episodes that they've been stood together at the bar, talking pleasantly with each other.
Anyone else can’t stand Ken Barlow (boring, self-righteous, hypocritical, patronising, Conservative but pretends to be Socialist under achiever) or is it just me.
Definitely not just you. I never noticed how unlikeable he was at the time, perhaps because we 80s kids had a lot of teachers at school who had this kind of personality. But watching him now is really grating.
No one's home in the 80s looked anything like what the movies tell us 80s homes looked like. It was all overspill from the 70s. The only places you'd have seen anything typically 80s would've been in teenager bedrooms.
Gayle also has the high, screechy voice! She literally gives me a headache! Always turn the volume down, or skip her, entirely! And I always skip any scene with Dreary, Ken, or Emily in them, among others!
Are this lot seriously expecting half a day off work to go Christmas shopping!? What do they think the rest of society does? They never heard of late night shopping or the weekend?
This was the 1980s, not now. Late night shopping was much, much rarer than it is now - and even then "late night" meant closing at 8pm. Some shops still closed early on Saturdays and nothing apart from corner shops was open on Sundays.
It's just how things worked then. I remember having a job in the early 90s where the boss would allow all his female staff to take an afternoon off to do Christmas shopping. He was an older gent, from a different time, where women did the shopping. All the men in the office worked their normal hours. We would also have an office party one Friday afternoon a month. The boss would send his secretary to Sainsbury's with £20 to get wine and munchies, and everyone would stop work an hour before finishing time. I've never had a better boss than him.
Thank you PG for these memories and for putting the episodes together, so exciting 🌻🌻🌻

She was a beautiful girl. Presumably she's now a beautiful woman. :)
@@bibakroll8999 Where was she beautiful?
@@eph2817 Presumably wherever she went. Or is this simply your nasty way of saying you don't agree? Much better to simply say so if you feel the need.
@@eph2817Don't be Nasty when there is no need for it.
@@eph2817 She was a nice woman but I agree she was no looker .

After 1995 that's when I am going to stop watching because it goes downhill from there,
Love Hilda 😊
I really liked the Susan of 1979-81 Suzy Patterson. For a start she had a Scottish accent!!
The Susan in these episodes can’t even act
Oh aye, I wouldn't have thought that one would've ended up in a dead-end job, in Geordyland, living in a grotty bed-sit.
Agree. This Susan's personality is as bland and non descript as her clothing😮

I remember those days when the nurses wore dresses!
Here in Cardiff they wear a top and trousers at the NHS hospitals.
I had the full cape etc…those were the days .. but trousers came in for moving and handling reasons…health and safety etc..
I work with Community Nurses and while we have a lot who wear tunics and trousers, there are still those who prefer to wear a proper nurses dress.
I love Hilda ❤️
So do I, I love her singing too. 😂
Percy is a prophet.
Talking about size of products shrinking and us paying more lol.
Ken “ Oh, for Pete’s sake, this isn’t some American soap opera!”
Nope-its an English soap opera.
😂😂😂
Coronation Street is hundred times better than an American soap , I couldn’t understand any person watching an American soap.
🙄
Actually, it was never a soap opera. It was a prime-time drama series. No soap company ever sponsored it.
@@bibakroll8999 kitchen sink drama 🙄
@@bibakroll8999 It was never a drama, its a soap🙄
1:09:25 conversation between Terry and Gloria was laden with double entendre. Nowadays, the switchboard would meltdown with the perpetually outraged 😂😂
Didn't Dulcie and Gloria act in Brookside together in the '90s
Yes, Marji Campi was in Brookside.
Bet is making a real fool of herself over Frank. Men are her blind spot, and stop her making decisions that would actually do her some good.
If Ida’s not wearing a syrup, I’ll eat my hat 😂
Audery. Such a gold digger.Never wanted to know Alf at the start, now she can't get enough.
Good for her....nice to see some men have a use for something🤣🤣🤣
She can’t get enough of his money, not him!
She only wore knickers to keep her ankles warm
Awesome!
If Bet said Frank blanked her while on the ship why would she give a rip now that he is back. Especially her personality
Terry before he truly went bad
Everytime I see Alf's shop, I think of Ena ordering boiled ham...
When the Barlows "modernised" their house why the hell didn't they get rid of that garden bench of a sofa??
Yipee, it's Susan Barlow. Shudder.
Oh aye, she's an arsehole of the first rank. But, not a patch on Vera Duckegg.
She probably thinks the same about you duckie.🤭🙄
@@irenemorley75 l agree with bsaundees... shudder!
I agree with you shudder
What Shirley says about religion…spot on..
Vera whipping those head phones off😂😂 nearly took his ear lobes off😅
Why does Susan look older than Ken?
Ha ha. I was thinking Susan no. 2 looks younger than Deirdre.
Yes she does
Susan Borelow: almost as dull as daddy. Almost
#fastforward
Any scene with Gloria in it-I start humming the Brookside theme!
I can now understand why sir Laurence Olivier wanted to appear on this well written,well casted drama.
Susan Barlow. Big baby!
Thank you
I can’t stand Deidre - acting like she’s never done anything wrong (Mike Baldwin spring to mind??!)
To be fair, even Ken appears to have forgotten about Mike Baldwin. The times over this past year of episodes that they've been stood together at the bar, talking pleasantly with each other.
2:09:00 (approx) is that the very first time anyone ordered Coke in T'Rovers??
Audrey..."Am I being obvious? I'm always obvious with men". The understatement of the year. 😂
Why does Nicky scream everything? Brian reminds him ‘Thank you, Grandma.’
Nicky ‘THANK YOU, GRANDMA!’ Could sound like a tantrum...
...because of his non-stop mouth open nag nag mummy Gail of course!
That was just little Warren Jackson's nature.
Not keen on s Barlow 😮😮
9:12 Duckworth ∆ Frogatt triangle 😂😂😂
George Newton could double as an ironing board 🤔
Vera can be be quite annoying sometimes 🤣😂 but in a good way her mouth runs faster than her brain. I think she even said that about herself at 1 state
What brain?
Of course.... its the part she plays🙄
Watch young Nicky bang his head on the table at 43:33 mins. Must have hurt too !!
Got rid of boring claytons now boring susan barlow back to the 70s for me .
curly was a brilliant replacement foe eddie yeats.
No one could replace Eddie Yates.
@@irenemorley75 maybe not
That Susan actually looks like Valerie
Who’s Valerie?
@@danielle-g3k Ken's first wife who dies, Susan and Peters mother.
Is there the missing episode somewhere? How did Jack break his ankle??
He got hammered and then tried to climb his ladder in front of his side chicks house 😮
Looking at Susan Barlow, makes me glad I never married ...
Norman in cloud nine ding☁️
Xxx!. Thanks

I always hated his guts. The worst thing Bet Lynch ever did was preventing him from committing suicide.
Definitely not just you. I've always thought Deirdre's life would have been much more interesting if she'd chosen Mike over Ken.
@@bibakroll8999 yeah thanks Bet…
Nope your spot on.
Barlows house is out of the ark ugg that awful sofa .
I think all the houses were behind with the times🙄
No one's home in the 80s looked anything like what the movies tell us 80s homes looked like. It was all overspill from the 70s. The only places you'd have seen anything typically 80s would've been in teenager bedrooms.
bosses in the US don't allow a shopping hour lol
Dreary's voice is like fingernails on a blackboard. *shudders*
Who's voice ?
@@irenemorley75Dreary Barlow! 🙄
Gayle also has the high, screechy voice! She literally gives me a headache! Always turn the volume down, or skip her, entirely! And I always skip any scene with Dreary, Ken, or Emily in them, among others!
Flaming ell Vera 😂
Ivy and George ... the two most unprepossesing people they could find.
Susan Barlow and Tim; what a gruesome couple ...
Asking your husband to flirt with your husband is just all kinds of weird! Gail was not all there! 🙈😂
Baldwins office has moved
Oh my it’s idle Audrey she doesn’t like hard work but uses Alf never liked Audrey she is still in corrie today 2024 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Alf is an idiot for allowing her to do so from the start! She turned him down once, so why does he still talk to her??! Very stupid, desperate man!
Jack falls off his ladder lands on his back but when he arrives at hospital he got 2 cuts on his cheek
Tim has a cute Scottish accent!
Deirdre has turned into such a dreary character. She's lost all her personality.
Ken father of the year🤐
Can’t take Ivys religious crap.
Can't take Ivy at all.🤮
A stripagram griolla lol
Norman TV 📺 doctor steptoe and son😅
Deidre's trying to pick up Tim. Loose.

@@zeddeka it's 1986 not 1886. I refuse to believe they have any justification for needing half a day off work to go shopping!
Late night ? As for Sunday shopping didn’t exist until much later .
@@adrianmole7431 I would never go shopping on a Sunday now.

Sorry but Susan Barlow's acting makes Brian Tilsey look like Laurence Olivier..talk about wooden 🪵
