Good job Sally did decide to pinch the key and run across the road actually. If she and Kevin had gone straight into no. 13, she wouldn’t have seen the smoke, and no alarm would’ve been raised.
Eh up it’s a go-er this one… When the fire engine arrives it is seen going up the Street past the corner shop, but in the second shot it approaches from the Rosamund St end..
Ken asking “what’s all the commotion?” And everyone else asking “what’s going on???” Whilst there’s smoke in the street…In the words of Beth in the 2013 rovers fire “it’s not a pigging flood is it???” 🤣
Total shocker,watched it back in the day, betts screaming was very scary,but of course very understanding, only thing that kept calm was Terry's nike peagus trainers well smart, I'm glad she was OK they were brave.
Haha there was a cast of 60+ at the time lol they couldn't write something for them all and to be fair what would Audrey add to the situation only a comical joke. I also couldn't see Alf doing an awful lot either.
@cliveevans9795 Alf and Audrey lived on the street during this time because the McDonald family didn't buy the house from them until 1989. That's Rita (or a body double) looking out the window at 03:41.
@stephenmcconnell1000 You're right. Alf and Audrey moved into No 11 after the short-lived Clayton family moved out in 1985, and would remain at the house until 1989. Surprisingly, they weren't involved in the fire episode but given it was June they might have been off on their summer holidays! Rita may have been sorting the papers at the Kabin. I presume this is why she didn't feature.
I remember this clip well in my childhood days.

Remember it well.
My mother was 7 years old then. She’s almost 43 now
I remember watching this as a kid more shocked at the sight of Bet Lynch without her Taj Mahal wig on than the fire itself
Strange the things you remember. I watched this as 9year old well my parents did and I remember it to this day.
In the days when the Greater Manchester Fire Brigade still had Leyland fire engines. :-)
When bet screams it put the fear into me for days, excellent acting.

And that's the end of the snug and select
Where were Rita, Alf and Audrey? They all lived on the Street then, after all.
Rita was lri the kabin that time probably..and Alf and Audrey lived off the street
