EPISODES 2931 - 2940 (All 10 Episodes)
This content doesn't belong to me, it belongs to the people who made it. Property of ITV. I claim no rights and make no profit. This is just for entertainment.
Who knew that making a soap opera based on likeable and relatable characters could be as good as this?
Writers in 2021 take note
I wish ITV 3 puts the old 60's episodes from the beginning on - if they did this, they would have huge ratings. The reason I say this, is because Corrie is thought of as an 'Old Friend'.
If Corrie is going to celebrate it's 70th Anniversary, what is needed to do achieve this is to get a proper strict Producer, get rid of half it's cast, get rid of half an hour per week and new writers. If this does not happens, it would end up like Crossroads.
Yep I’d be very interested in watching that myself, I’m not sure if they’ve got all the tape - wasn’t there rumours it had been destroyed in a fire!? I might be wrong. I had a free trial on Brit Box and you were able to watch 1 episode from each year which tbh.. isn’t great lol! 🤷♀️
The difference then was a cast of superb actors.
2022 they’re saddled with writers who think they’re writing a pantomime and ‘actors’ who act like they’re in one. It’s dreadful.
@@mrsWELCOME008 I saw two b&w episodes years ago on a Canadian channel. I agree, I would like to see the early episodes. (I'm American, I love the Street!
Roy Barraclough was a client in a legal practice where I worked and what a lovely guy.
I love his voice.😄
An actor is not the characters they portray.
Thank you so much for uploading all these episodes. The scriptwriting and dialogue are genius! Comedy gold. Love Bet's one-liners!
I love the character of Alma played by Amanda Barry.
Shes such an attractive lady & can remember her in the old
Carry On films!
The glamourous " it " girls in the Carry On films, apart from Barbara Windsor was Amanda Barry & Fenella Fielding.
I hope Amanda stays in the street now for a good while longer, i think her role of Alma is a good one & can be developed really well
Thank you to EveHenleySpread for these uploads.. 10 out of 10
Regards
🇬🇧👧
I'm not sure how none of them thought about the garage in the first place when Nicky ran off
Ĺpppp
"Straight up" Paula Abdul was on tv Bet was watching at end on seen when Alec was ordering her to earn her keep w housework and laundry. That was great. I like how they picked songs relating to what's going on in scene. Very nice touch
SO true! 🤣🤣 x
When Curly was depressed in the supermarket walking around like a zombie the music playing was an instrumental of the Beatles song "She's Leaving Home'
I went to the Granda Television Tour when I was in England, in 1990. Granada don't just produce Corrie, they have an interior Parliament set that production companies use; they have Baker Street with 221B Sherlock Holmes flat / street, and of course, Coronation Street!
The street exterior set in those days was 2/3rds scale and they used wide angle lenses on the cameras to make it look bigger.
The houses you see in the street are only one storey, no upper level,, and are used as costume and lighting stores; and back then, the writers of the show had their offices in some of the houses.
The Rovers, is a time/space warp in reality:
The "Select" function room just couldn't have existed - it would have been on the road. But we ignored that, lol.
And why did we NEVER see anyone's front rooms?
At the end of the street, behind the viaduct, is a huge sound stage where all the interiors were filmed, they filmed the exteriors in the Street on Mondays (hence continuity errors from exterior to exterior and visa-versa.)
I paid £25 (which was a lot in 1990) to do this video. My brother and I went into a bluescreen/ chromakey set and leaned on a "bar".
There were the lines we had to say printed on a giant board that kept eyeline in-tact, and when the light came on, you said the line.
Unfortunately, we couldn't hear the other pre-recorded actors, and so we had no context to what we were saying, so it does sound a bit flat and disjointed.
But this was the result and to this day, we're lucky to have experienced Television history.

Cool
Who knew the animosity between Alma & Audrey would dissolve & blossom into a beautiful friendship.
Rochdale Blake Carrington 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for posting the classic years. I have downloaded 1976-1995. I thought I’d start with 1989 and see Alan Bradley. I just couldn’t get into the episodes of early 2022 and went back to the past. The theme song is better. I did eventually manage to watch February - December 2022. It was crazy! From nothing happening, it was suddenly very busy and my goodness! A forty year old woman off her trolley on booze and drugs is unaware she’s pregnant and next thing, a baby! Now they are essentially repeating the Richard Hillman years by featuring Audrey’s son as a killer who has actually stolen all the equity in her property. Audrey was once the critical thinker and now ? ? I don’t know. I can’t watch one episode at a time. I’ll go back to it after the year has ended and back track. Meanwhile, all these little beauties from the past. They’re rippers! ❤
You’re very welcome Lisa, glad you’re enjoying them… if I were you I’d start at April 1976 (when Elsie Tanner returns)… as for me that period is golden television! But maybe I’m a bit old fashioned! Cheers for the lovely comment! 😉 x
@@EveHenleySpreadEve, Thank you again for the uploads. I watched from 1989 to the end of 1996 which is what I was up to to after having seen 1997, 1998, 1999 earlier this year. At the beginning of April I went back to 1976 and have smashed through the years to 1989. You were so right. I adored the seventies and eighties (my childhood years) and agree that the turning point was 1983/84. My absolute favourite is Elsie Tanner. I was sitting there wondering who the magnetic redhead was and there you go! It’s been very interesting observing the culture of Northern England in those days when people just walked into each others houses without knocking. Seeing Deidre walking at night when the real Yorkshire Ripper was on the loose in 1977 chilled me. I’ve downloaded 1960-76 and will go back to the beginning soon. I have enjoyed learning about the breweries selling pubs that previously had long term tenants and managers. Thank you so much. What a legend is Elsie Tanner ❤ I am an Australian who has been residing in Italy for two and a half years. These uploads may have saved my life. The diversion from what’s going on in the world and nostalgia is just beautiful. Eve, 🙏
As much as I love Bet I had no sympathy at all for her in this situation. She knew exactly how Alec would feel about her going out on the razzle with Stella's husband, or anyone else's for that matter. If Stella was such a good mate she should have gone out with her.
That’s the same policewoman who told Gail about what happened to Brian, isn’t it? I’d like to think Mark had a little chat with Nicky, gave him a drink and a biscuit and maybe a tour of the garage before returning him home to Gail. The photographs scene is touching.
Yeah it is her
Alma was a real cow when she first became a regular.
Mark the mechanic was in it three years earlier playing the paperboy with Jenny when she made her debut
Percy and Phyllis remind me of Compo and Nora Batty but with the roles reversed. Here its the woman chasing after the man with romantic ideas and he isn't the slightest bit interested lol
It’s funny to see the ‘racing crowd’ being the audience at the dog track and just staring at the actors being filmed …..🤣😳🤷🏼♂️
Nice to see the traditional microphone making a new appearance overhead after all these years.
I’ll tell ya summat for nought…thems was a right gold pairin is Alec and our Bet
I like 👍 the dog 🐕 Lucky 🍀. I think 💭 the dog’s very cute 😊.
Of course Nicky would go to his dad's garage. Obviously. But then Gail hasn't a clue.
I guess Gail is just going with the script....right🙄
Awesome upload 🤘
Audrey: “Honestly, Sally .. Men, they just don’t understand do they, I’ve got absolutely nothing that goes with that dogs collar”
Sally: “Well never mind, you can always dye Lucky to match”
🤣🤣🤣x
Audrey got on my minds putting Bet down she seems to have forgot where she came from pot calling kettle 😊
Derek: "Intemperance never stopped people getting top jobs."
Mavis: "Well it should!"
She must have forgotten that she was rather tiddly herself from a sherry in the Rovers with Jerry Booth and hiccoughed through her interview with Rita at the Kabin.. still got the job though.
Percy to Alma: "are you on tablets?" 😂😂
Thankyou so much for these episodes xx
Oh that guy came back as the baker who owned the bakery before it was the kebab shop. Diggory. He was Molly's father . Molly was Jack's mother.
indomitable Vera has a heart of gold (and is a hoot)
she was really nasty in an episode so I can't stand her now .
@@jb7445 her character. I try not to make it personal about actor. +_+
I love Vera!
@@youtubehatesus2651 But you're referring to the character - Vera - not the actor.
Vera is an absolute hooter!😂
“You’re a Wally Alec. You’re a right Wally. Put that in your statement and chew on it!”
Why do they all slam their doors , I love ❤️ Coronation street . I listen at night and I noticed all the slamming .😡
I thought the same thing, especially when everyone was stopping at Gail's when Sarah was born. Why do u have to slam doors at all, let alone when there's a newborn asleep
it's called a dramatic exit.
Are the men in Coronation Street all completely useless, can’t cook, can’t iron, can’t do housework…was this 34 years ago or 134 years ago 😳
@@deborahwatson2730Yes, even in the 1990's the women were expected to do "women's work".
@@deborahwatson2730 I don't like to see men doing house work.... I like men to be men.
Gail expected nicky to forget brian existed, just like she has
You can get the coronation street dvds the Best of the 60s, 70s, 80s, Not every episode but at least 40 shows on each set
Hahha what did Gail take 3 days off? How long was Alma in America or whatever, over a year I believe?
The poor dog flinched when don hit it by mistake that's not the first time that dog got it
I thought that bless her she looks so gentle too
I just had the same thought. Poor thing. Even when she's walking, she looks like she's trying to hide
This is where Curly's eternal debt to the Duckeggs begins. And, they'll never miss an opportunity to remind him, what he owes them. Even after he leaves their house, they throw it up in his face, how they took him in, whenever it suits them.
He would've been far better off, finding the 80 quid he owed Alf.
Very nice episodes, lots of unusual and interesting things happening
1:18:14 - Bet says, "What do you expect me to do, Alec, lock myself away in the attic like that mad woman in Wuthering Heights?" I think she must mean Bertha Mason, who was the mad woman in the attic, but in Jane Eyre, not Wuthering Heights. The writers got the wrong Bronte story.
.. or maybe Bet got the wrong Bronte story! 😉
@@EveHenleySpread that sounds like Bet. I’m actually a little impressed she knew anything about either story:)
Possibly the sort of error Bet would make don’t you think!
Im reading Jane eyre now actually
Im reading Jane eyre now actually
Poor Nikki 😭
Didn’t the solicitor play the role of Diggery about 10 years ago?
I can only imagine that the Alma character was pretty unpopular with viewers at the time, my Granny would've hated her, it's just written way over the top & she's really annoying; it's just a backstreet, northern caff luv, calm down!!
Yet she went on to be a viewers favourite, after she lost all her snobbishness, is that a word, LOL
She's awful
@@bsaunders5271 Well it gets better over time, but yes, a terrible start!
@@bsaunders5271 Here we go again......change the record ( woman hater)
Coronation Street went way over the top.
Beautiful greyhound ❤
31.13 Gails hair.😂
Half a mild 37p!
What do you get for 37p now days?
@@paullynton-green6570not half a mild! 😂
Gail walked right by Sarah while she had a marker cap in her mouth and thought nothing of it, wtf
Gail is a useless mother.she still is to this day.
She's on pills for god sake 😂😂
She’s not really her Mother! Ffs
Gail is as cold as ice awful mother
Let’s cancel Cornation Street 1989 😳😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
What kind of a mother thinks “having” to spend her days raising her children would throw her into a depression?!?
And sorry, when you have kids “your own life “ takes a back seat. It’s not a burden it’s a blessing. Being self focused and self obsessed won’t bring happiness (obviously, look at how miserable she is) . It’s quite the opposite, focusing on others and doing selfless things for people you love IS happiness. Sad that some people never learn that lesson.
Family and people you love are EVERYTHING. Money, career, material things don’t make you happy.
And since when is jumping when your boss snaps, punching a time clock to make fries for truckers some kind of “independence”?!?! It’s so dumb I don’t know how a whole generation (or two) fell for it. Well, women do love a trend
Well a career can make you happy. What if you never meet anyone that loves you? Some people don't have that luck you know
Speak for yourself,, my family are a nasty bunch, better off having a career and being independent.
@@londonlady227 how is punching a clock and jumping when a corporation/boss demands being independent?!
@@MissMarie1377independent from the family, as well you know.
I couldn't agree more. People are more important than money. Thank you for this realy lovely heartfelt letter.😊
New Dedrie wig !
The way Mavis pronounces 'Derek' drives me nuts. In fact, it's every word that ends with a 'k' 🙉🙉🙉
It's called the Queen's English, not something you hear much these days, sadly.
@@NICKROBERTS23 I realise that, but it doesn't stop it from grating badly on my nerves. My bad, not hers.
You never stop moaning and banging on about most of the women in Coronation street, why do you watch it ? .....don't tell me ( you just love to nag)
@@bsaunders5271to be honest I agree my Mam does the same and it irritates me as well 😂
The guy who played Mark Casey played Herbie in Dead Man's Shoes. Another character from 1989 whose actor was in Dead Man's Shoes was Eddie Ramsden
32:17 that brraks your heart. 😢
Does anyone think Bet is out of order for going out behind Alec's back with her friend's husband?
32:03 who is that ? Is that Darren Whateley ? The man talking to Nick
Ivy was right about Gail. She was a selfish mother. She didn’t even care that Nicki was grieving his dad. She was just moaning he was being too needy with her. Surprise surprise he lost his dad ffs! Of course he’s going to be needy. She should have got him grief counselling but then Gail only cares about herself! Not a thought about her own kids. 😒
That sweet greyhound was so frightened when Don tethered her up. I’m so upset that she was made to feel so scared. Shame on them.
Vera you're a little love what are you ❤
Ugh Don Brennan is horrible. The way he turns against that poor dog as soon as he finds out he can't make any money from it.
Are Bette and Alec not going to make up?
Why the bloody hell did Curly bother going to college? All it got him was a poxy managers job at Freshco. If he'd had a job he could have carried on boffing Shirley
When mavis kissed Derrick tra I had a thought about them in the clutches of carnal bliss. Omg
God please no.... 🙊🙊🙊
The mind boggles😂.
What does Gail mean Nick got into bother at school like what was said is there a clip of that or something ?
I think it was done off camera
@@bsaunders5271 ohh ok thanks
Curly isn't even trying to find a job 🙄
1.56 for two pints
what patterns! 2:42:31
Are we expected to believe Nicky tied his own tie?
I could knot my own tie at 9
Maybe it was a clip on, or was just loosened so he could slip it on and off
Most school kids had to wear a tie in those days. You learned to tie it yourself at an early age.
G Plus Repeat was December 2001
Auderey moochin off alfie as per annoys me
Betty doesn’t live in Coronation Street or anywhere near it. Shop in your own area Turpin!
i`m assuming they changed sarah when they realised she wasn`t going to be a pretty girl. Brutal.
Or probably realised she couldn't act for toffee when she grew up.. as what happened with Dawn Acton and Warren Jackson!
@@EveHenleySpread not sure that's their policy. Brian couldn't act for toffee but he looked good.
Yep that’s true Chris Quinten was more or less chosen for his looks, he was a dancer in actual fact, no formal acting training.
Jaws looked good?matter of opinion.
2.45 didn't the woman in white do social welfare officer in shameless. shacked up with chris goggins.
Betty lying through false teeth. 😂 Prefer Duckhead's stone cladding to Gayle's pebble dash anyday.
Bet is absolutely lazy.
Like Audrey
They are all lazy .
@@bsaunders5271Audrey sunk her claws into Alf and has security now. All she has to do now is spend money.
@@bsaunders5271 Give it a rest.🤐🙄
Tina's hair is a mess
It's the forehead.lethal.
Sorry folks it a soap not a show my mistake so sorry
Stella was a good character 👌
This greyhound storyline makes me dislike Don even more 😷
