    Hilda does like to get her digs in. "Oh, and eh, let's get things right. It's not your shop, belongs to your fancy fella. Who's also 'opped it." 😄 The fabulous performances by Jean Alexander continued over the years and no wonder the likes of Laurence Olivier and John Betjeman were amongst the founders of the British League for Hilda Ogden in the early 80s.

    I love Coronation Street and have been watching since Ken's first wife, Valerie, was electrocuted in 1971, but has anybody else noticed that the Rovers interior cannot possibly fit into the available space within the exterior set! There simply woukd not be enough room! You'd think the programme makers would check these things?

      @@jasbegs1258@Clive Mattinson. It was called the Select. It was supposed to be at basement level, like the cellar. It was used for shows and wedding receptions. It used to be used for the Xmas and new year episodes usually with a big sing song from the cast. I remember Ken and Deirdre had their first reception in it as did Emily and Ernest Bishop. It was implied that there was an internal (magic?) passageway and stairway down to it next to Annie Walker's living room. I think there was a back outside stairwell down to it for the customers from where the outside tables are now. It was supposed to be burned down when the Rovers had that fire due to faulty ancient wiring in 1985 when Bet was licensee almost killing her. The interior then had to be completely rebuilt and mysteriously the Select wasn't rebuilt, which was a shame. I agree. It is like Dr Who's tardis. It is bigger on the inside. I sell insurance to architects and in a conversation with one of them he reckoned the Rovers toilets must be in Ken Barlow's living room. Lol! No wonder Albert Tatlock was so miserable when he lived there.
