I love that they were allowed to fluff their lines and it stayed in!
Ty so much for uploading these episodes great fan from nz here 💓
We forget how much people smoked into each other’s faces back then.
I read that the Welsh granny was seen as a replacement character for Ena Sharples as Violet Carson was absent most of that year due to illness. But the viewers didn’t take to her and except for Trisha they were all gone after 6months
The hopkins family were hilarious. The granny in particular was superb.should have kept them in the show.
I was only a kid then, but I liked Granny at the time. Very disappointed when they left.
Hard to believe its 50 years ago.
Gail made her 1st appearance about 2 weeks after this episode as a friend of Trisha Hopkins. Trisha was axed in 1976. It would be a nice way to book end Gail’s story by having her comeback to see Gail.
Stanley: now who wears the trousers in our house?
Hilda: Now you really don't want me to tell people that Stan in front of witnesses?
A time when when women were independent and strong.
Oh they are still strong. Bitchy but strong!
Northern women have always been independent and strong.
Blimey, I was 14 when this aired. Loved Stan and Hilda Ogden.
The woman that is the new barmaid at the rovers is the same actress that later goes on to try to "con" Hilda our of some of her inheritance (I think its her), so common in corrie to use actors again and again, sometimes before hitting a regular role
Yes it's her
1974 had wonderful TV
22:06 Hilda telling Stan to get off her toes was more of Jean Alexander telling Bernard rather, a nice ad lib.
And how she counts him in to start the dance- she did this before in earlier episodes.
Maggie's son becomes Betty's son in later episodes. Our Gordon who lives in London.
He was adopted by Maggie because she was married and Betty had him out of wedlock. They never told him until those awful people who bought the shop found his real birth certificate in an old sideboard and made a show of letting Betty know they knew her secret..
@@earthalydelights I never knew that,so thank you,because I literally just went Eh!!when Gordon said by mam to Maggie,so saved me sitting all night wondering what the hell I missed?lol I was only 9 or 10 when this was aired.
14:16 "Pardon my trotters in the trough" Betty was wonderful. I hope I get to use that comment one day.
I was thinking ‘how disgustingly rude’
Mavis’s hairdresser must have really hated her guts.
Bag would have suited mavis
A very cute lady, but the old lady hair style aged her terribly. She wasn't even near 40 in this.
Len stumbles on his lines at 5:53 but he gets out of it pretty quick. It was probably cheaper not to cut and just leave it in.
They rarely re-recorded scenes for that reason and they couldn't really edit it like they can now so they would have to start the scene all over again if something went wrong, they wouldn't even remake the one scene where the camera accidently hits Elsie (Pat Phoenix) in the back of head in 73.
And another one just afterwards near the bar with Stan again
@@ohuntermc9321 She pulls the door towards her and hits her own head on it then the cameraman keeps moving as she stops. No doubt she was half cut at the time.
@@gordonbennett5638 it was the Snug door.
@@gordonbennett5638 she didn’t even move that far back, the camera certainly moved too quickly and didn’t give her chance to open it.
Len had a very rich, dramatic voice. When I was a boy everyone across continents saw him as their neighbor.
But Peter Adamson fell from grace in the end, lost everything, was bankrupted and spent his final days living in 1 room and trying to cadge free drinks at his local which was not unlike the Rovers.
None of his former cast maté’s attended his funeral.
sad😥
Very sad. He wasn't even found guilty, but the damage was done. He didn't help himself by writing a memoir slagging off various cast members.
Although Charles Hawtrey of the Carry On films didn't fall from grace, he found it impossible to find work after the films ended. He also ended his days cadging drinks down at his local. He got banned from several pubs for pestering customers. He used to do a "dying fly" act, lying on the floor and kicking his legs in the air, hoping someone would buy him a drink as a reward.
It didn't matter how loved an actor was in those days, bad publicity or a change in tastes and they were out on their ear.
Nowadays they publish an 800 page autobiography and do reality TV for the rest of their lives.
@@gilgameshofuruk4060 could you imagine Charles Hawtrey on Big Brother lol he might have won it!
6.23 'just a bottle eh?' Stan is quite funny!
A much younger Kathy Staff from Last of the Summer Wine, but without the ghastly ever-present headgear!
Connie D Went on to play Miss Luke in Crossroads before playing Nora Batty.
Stephen Dines actually she played Miss Luke at the same time as Nora Batty
Omg Tammy Wynette behind the bar at 14.21
i think Albert secretly had the hots for Minnie in their scene-lol
These days, x number of years on I see a very different side to Len Fairclough’s character.
Cocky would sum it up with an attitude like something out of the Ark, towards women.
Yes. These programmes are a whole new experience when watched with grown up eyes!🥰 to be honest, all the men were a bit like that back then. Some still are.😁
@@annoldham3018 Yes, especially northern men.
@@annoldham3018 Now all the women are like that.
Imagine if that lot had bought the corner shop. They wouldn't have been able to sell milk for fear of curdling it with those sour faces.
GORDON BENNETT the Hopkins did run the shop for a few months
They did but were just fillers.
They weren't popular with the characters or the viewers. I remember people writing to TV Times to complain about them, then to rejoice when they left.
Gran Hopkins is super !!!!!
I liked Len Fairclough's character.
You may have felt differently if you had a 10 year old daughter in swimming lessons.
@@earthalydelights They're talking about the character, not the actor. There is a difference.
Ah, the famous gents loo that opened into Albert Tatlock's kitchen. Did they ever fix that?
Nope, except it now opens into Ken Barlow's kitchen, right to this present day.
Yes on later sets they built an alley way between the Rovers and No 1
🤣
There are always some really horrible outfits, and hats, at every wedding. This time was no exception, but I really like Betty's hair piece. Timeless, I would say, not too flashy, but it makes a statement and it suits her too. They could have picked something equally nice for Maggie. Instead, they gave her that awful blue, over sized, flying saucer monstrosity. Fortunately, Maggie is a beautiful woman, so she could carry it off without looking ridiculous. Annie too, in that overwhelmingly bright, pink suit and hat. She looks like a great big jelly bean. It would look cute on a six year old, but it's ridiculous on a woman her age. Sometimes, it makes you wonder what the wardrobe people had in mind. Bett's outfit is pink as well, but it's subdued by some white tones, and she looks absolutely great in it.
1970s weddings were very like this. Huge hats. In the early 70s, hats with wide brims were common on brides also. And bridal gowns often looked like nighties. Maggie got let off lightly!🥰
Alot happen between 10 June and 10 July. When did Maggie meet this fella?
The Welsh actor was in Please Sir
20>45 Grotty chairs for a wedding do.
Great episode.
Love you coronation street ♥ 1fan micheál
All the Corri weddings and very few brides actually wore a wedding dress.. I wonder why?
Too many fallen women in our neck of the woods. In a white dress they'd be fooling no one, you mark my words!😆🥰
Combination of mainly second weddings and even for the first ones, not being able to afford a wedding gown. Wearing a skirt-suit they already owned or borrowed was petty common in late 60s/early 70s if you didn’t have much money. For register office weddings, it was the norm.
Grenada budgeting.
Ray Langton’s haircut is still a serious visual crime to this day.
It was a crime in the 70s!

Do you have the 1st July 1974 episode?
I know I'll get nasty comments, but by todays standards most of these folks would by classified as alcoholic here in the states. They're always drinking. No matter the reason. I guess it was okay back in the day. Just sayin.
stan crouch I couldn’t agree with you more Stan,. It’s one never ending booze up ,As soon as the pub opens . That’s not a nasty comment at all Stan .
I was thinking the very same thing .
I think that all the time watching these. They all drink like fish.
it was just how things were, well into the 80s. Pubs opened briefly for 2h at lunchtime and having 2 pints at lunch was not unusual BUT do remember that men only drank beer, never spirits, at lunchtime (and latter only ever if very well off) and beer was usually weaker back then - 1.5-2.5 % alcohol compared to 3.5-7.5% now. It was just the culture in working class areas to drink at lunchtime then go back to work - and again after work. 4-5 pints a day wasn’t unusual. Some people were alcoholics and couldn’t live without it but were fairly functional (but didn’t see themselves that way as they drank beer whereas “drunks” drank spirits and cheap wine, and/or drank at home/on their own - so long as it was beer in company, it was acceptable) but for many, it was just what you drank. Comes from a history of contaminated unsafe water in the 1800s and beer being safer.
Their lives were so miserable and their surroundings so depressing that of course they drank constantly. Today they would all be on crack.
This was very common culture in the 60s and 70s. The pub was the place to be and drinking was very common at night and lunchtime. There wasn't the stigma of drink driving at this time. In fact, it was considered macho to do so and have one for the road. Plus pubs are open longer hours now, so people tended to binge drink in the shorter opening times.
Rusks 19 pence those were the days.
Is that same church as len and rita got married in
Obviously it can’t be, but Vera Hopkins looks ( to me) a bit like Ellie Haddington-who years later was in Corrie as Don’s girlfriend, Josie Clarke ( after Ivy had died).
Sooo many fluffed lines in this episode.
Wasn’t Betty our Gordon’s mother.❤❤❤❤❤
Maggie's son was one of the Likely lads...
No
No
Definitely not
You're thinking of Rodney Bewes who was in 'Whatever Happene to the Likely Lads' alongside James Bolan. Maggie's son, Gordon, was played by Bill Kenwright who went onto being a theatre impressario.
He does look a little like Rodney Bewes. 🥰
The constant inside smoking by otherwise healthy people is still mildly shocking.
Albert is such an old crank
Nora batty
OMFG ....such terrible acting .... fluffed lines everywhere ... but still entertaining ... 🤷🏼♂️ 👏👏
the acting is not that bad at all, but remember they rarely re-shot scenes in those days so they were expected to continue through fluffed lines.
That's the best bit!😁🥰
Rita, Bet and Betty were the best dressed.
I have never bothered too much about a fluffed line here and there, I wish they would leave more in for realism. We rarely speak every single sentence without the occasional occasional hesitation or a bit of word stumbling. Look at Boris Johnson for the most extreme example 🤣🤣
Fluffed lines are more believable. We do it all the time in real life.
