Apologies for the glitch at 1:34:46 , I can't seem to remove it.
It’s ok
Corrie Platt Fan I hate you you heart them so so much I love the platts
Corrie Platt Fan it is find
Fine
Lol it’s funny tho ngl
We all appreciate the hard work and editing you've put into this series. Fantastic uploads.
This ⬆️
100%
Agreed
Agree
Agreed
Mate I have to say fair play for uploading the whole Richard Hillman storyline one of if not the best storylines Corrie did.
I totally agree with you on that.
The aftermath of Richards confession was fantastic. Gail's devastation at finding she was married to a killer was superb, played a blinder by Helen Worth. Soaps don't do aftermath like this anymore
For real hahaha something terrible happens and then it’s never mentioned again 😂
The aftermath arc really did capture how devastating this news could be...
i’ve read of stories of families that found out that one of their family members did some horrendous stuff
it is crushing, embarrassing, they get harassed by the public and media
but the truth is that most of us would never expect one of our loved ones capable of such things.
And sadly the character of Gail has since been reduced to a shadow of her former self. She is not a serious person at all and is used as a crap comic relief character whose behaviour is stupid and ridiculous in a weird way. Steve and Tracy McDonald and Dev Alahan are the same: overacted gormlessness and ridiculous "humour" that isn't that funny. It's as if they turn characters daft when they run out of ideas. To look at those characters today it's unbelievable that they have all, at one time or another, been major characters with serious, hard-hitting storylines. Who would see today's Tracy with her theatrical performances with Mary and bitchy remarks and remember she was a callous, calculated murderer? Or that Steve had ties to drugs gangs (Jez Quigley)? Or that dippy Gail, who today is the butt of ridicule of her family and pining after the latest in a line of soppy husbands (Les Dennis!) was married to a serial killer?
Helen Worth deserves an Oscar for this great acting
Martin was her best husband even though they broke up he was a great co parent
Terrible actor though
@@simondelaney6483 alright then let's see you do better I'm sutecyouve had years of theatrical training to call him a bad actor. The real terrible actors are on Emmerdale and Hollyoaks.

Coronation street was much better back then
Paul Gray yes because nowadays they just repeat everything that's happened but with different people. Storylines like this back then were huge because nobody had seen anything like this before.
The classic episodes were way better in the 90s, 00s and early 2010s, better then the late 2010s and now, they rubbish now and I stopped watching it, last time I last watched it was where the live episode in 2015 September where Kylie killed Callum.
This was the best story line in coronation Street. Richard Hillman was the best villian I've ever seen in a soap. I couldnt miss a episode of this soap when this was the storyline
Back when corrie was gold.
Not watched for over 10 yrs
Same I've not watched in over a decade. Enjoying these old clips and reminiscing but realizing how kinda lame the acting is. Lived it bk in day though
You haven't missed much, the tram crash of 2010 was really the end of the good times.
I’ve recently moved home and haven’t got wifi yet. The internet is terrible, I can’t really search, or load anything. I went on CZcams to put something on as background noise while I decorate. For some reason, part one of this storyline was the only video I could get to work. I thought, screw it. It’s only background noise, doesn’t matter… and I can honestly, I’ve never been so invested in a story! 😂 I’ve just finished this part and it was incredible! Thank you so much for uploading 👏 You’ve made my decorating a lot more interesting! X
But nobody cares about your internet problems. Post something relevant.
Best soap storyline of all time ❤️
Nah, pat phelan was
@@jenlutherborrow5032 nah David growing up until Kylie died
Thanku ive enoyed this xxx
@GlennB9876 absolutely agree it was truly gripping
Gail’s ‘Now I’ll sleep’ at the canal always chokes me. :(
Corrie platt fan is a legend and I owe my life to them. No joke. Really, I love you. Thank you so much ❤️
Thanks for putting so much time into making these videos. Hope this gets to half a million views. Your hard work deserves it
We've reached it now!
Love the fact Audreys gossiping down the pub whilst her family are being murdered 😂
Hi I wanna tell you Jesus Loves You So Much He Gave His Life for our sins so we can be forgiven from our sins and Go To Heaven! Gods Love For Us Is Unconditonal
She was not down the pub only acting remember.
At least she had a brandy to keep the gossip flowing!
@@josephdyson3737 while she was having a gossip a Silver Ford Galaxy MK1 was speeding down Weatherfield streets then driving into a canal
It is acting
Just spent all weekend binge watching these videos. Just amazing, we will never have a villain as good as Richard ever again!!!
Just done the same thing. A great storyline.
Could Richard have killied more ppl and could he have sold their properties cars asset
Funny feeling Gail's brother Stephen is gonna give him a run foe husband money
One of Coronation street's iconic storyline in history
Many thanks to the OP - A lot of hard work taken to edit and upload these 5 parts. Respect for the dedication so we can watch. Brilliant X
I don’t think we have had a villian like Richard Hillman since. He was genuinely scary with how calm he was here. Most villains now are moustache twirlers. I remember watching this originally and the reveal of him holding David made actually scared of what was going to happen.
I think Pat Phelan was the closest we got to Richard but nobody will ever top Richard in any soap again👏
Both Pat Phelan and Richard Hillman were my favourite Corrie Villains imagine those two together
Jez quickly was good
Richard was chilling in how cold he was, though it is shown that in the beginning he had a lot of guilt but as time went on he was too focused on his perfect life that he convicted himself anything he did was justified
then he went nuts but always was cold and calculating even then...
Richard for his duality and coldness and brutality was one of Corries most notorious and famous villains
Pat phelan was a thug and always was, hardened by his time in prison, and a life of organized crime, so his villainy was more understandable because he was one of the few actual mafioso types that lived on the street
I still Think Tony gordon comes close to Richard
but different, Tony was not a thug like phelan, but he orchestrated his best mates death out of jealousy and spite for him sleeping with his girlfriend
and then after Tony felt betrayed and that everything he could have had was done for
he no longer cared who he hurt or killed not even himself.
@@darrkksupernatural9782I think the closest we got to Richard was Carla's ex Tony in 2010. Richard and Tony shared a similar sterile, Darwinian view of people. Phelan was a nasty depraved brute but also had genuine personal affection for his family. For example if Phelan's grandson Zack had been born with a deformity/disease I think Phelan would still protect him whereas Richard/Tony would recommend putting the baby out of its misery. And of course Richard/Tony ended up killing themselves for Gail/Carla. Phelan would never have killed himself for any woman.
It’s such a brilliant storyline that it genuinely broke my heart to see them getting out of the canal safely and looking so traumatised. It’s no wonder David had issues growing up
While Audrey was right about Richard being a psychopath, I get the feeling that when he returned and tried that murder-suicide pact he was genuinely unhinged. I can't really blame Gail for not believing Audrey though - Richard managed to convince everyone Audrey was senile. Even Archie didn't believe Audrey at first and thought she was paranoid. It was Audrey's persistence that convinced Archie and even then there wasn't enough evidence until he killed Maxine and tried to kill Emily. At least he wrote that confession saying Gail knew nothing . Even Pat Phelan stopped Summer getting in the car with that stranger despite all his other crimes.
Pat was smart enough to see that if Summer got in that car she was be in danger
Audrey did herself no favors when she was blatantly accusing Richard in public with no evidence other than her feelings
that soured and ruined her credibility with Gail and a lot of people because of that
and many refused to see it because they thought it was harassment gossip from Audrey
Richard was very good at manipulation but he also had a genuine charm and seemed to have a good grasp of civility and sense when he interacted with others
Just to point out to people, Ted buddy, John wayne Gacy and Jeffrey dahmer were notorious for being trustworthy types who were able to lure and trap their victims
and they were seen and regarded by friends, family and neighbors as normal as you could be
these kind of predators are very good at hiding in plain sight and pretending to be the sheep while sharpening their fangs and waiting for the right moment.
@@mckenzie.latham91 yeh, same for Norris. Emily really annoyed me throughout this saga (more than Gail in fact) and I think Norris' gossiping only made her more adamant to defend Richard.
It would of been great if Phelan and Hillman were together
@@racerja3173 dream encounters:
- Richard Hillman vs Mad Maya vs Tony Gordon
- Pat Phelan vs Charlie Stubbs
- Stephen Reid vs John Stape
never was a corrie fan but i remember this episodes being on tv when i was really young, honestly they did a really great job the acting and directing is millions of times better then whats in it now , also whoever edited this together, u did an amazing job
Same I was only 4 when this aired but I still remember the scene where the car drove into the river.
“SallYs GoNE sHOppInG in IT”
HAHAHA!!!!
LOL
😂😂😂😂
I’ve got the keys to that come on
i didnt even get wet.
Thank you so much for this huge edit of the Richard Hillman saga. Funny enough he was the one that got me into being a Coronation Street fan in the first place back in the early 2000s and as a kid I liked him because I love well written villains like him. But I only got into this storyline as a kid towards the end so thanks to you I've been able to see his entire story play out and just delve deep into Richard's killer. I find him quite tragic more than anything and still like him though. So it was a treat to see all of it including the aftermaths of Patricia and Maxine's deaths, Richard's confession and demise
Same here, we're probably the same age. And I find him more tragic/pathetic now rewatching as an adult - I don't want to say he's more 'relatable' but his whole backstory / sob story about his parents and wives is easier to picture now. He was genuinely devoted to Gail and the kids but as Gail realised, he was only devoted to them as a concept.
You legend i would buy you a pint if we was alowed out lol 😁
“Yes you couldn’t pick a winner on
a podium with a rosette on!” “I know that I picked you didn’t I!” 🤣🤣 love jack and Vera
That scene with the engine running in the garage was the worst one - horrifiying! Well this is all the sign of an excellent actor: the guy who played Richard Hillman was one hell of a great villian - I'd say the greatest villain in Coronation Street of all time!
That scene when Gail threw the ring into the canal - basically the "Good riddance!" expression. Excellent 🙂👍!
Edit (31/10/20): I'm not sure where to make the request but seen as at least 1 person's gone to the trouble of recording both Richard Hillman and David Platt Storylines, can I request Michelle Connor storylines please 🙂?
I ask as she is one amazing actress and I don't think I'm the only one who misses seeing her in Coronation Street. She has to be one of the most feisty Corrie woman ever! Just a thought 🙂.
I'm surprised Gail, Sarah or David didn't whack on the handbrake when untied. Mind you knowing Hillman, he'd have prevented one of them.
I still remember when Michelle first appeared as a member or candidate for Liz's boyfriend's band. Funny how that one brief scene led to years of explosive storylines involving the whole Connor clan especially Carla.
I remember growing up with the Hillman story. And that finale, part of it was past my bedtime so my parents taped it for me to watch the next day
Great stuff, thanks for uploading. Brings back memories. Definitely the antidote to lockdown blues. Corrie at some of its best.
At the end when Gail throws the rings in I get like Macbeth vines
Shame at the end, I was hoping he might survive for one more visit ;-). Thanks very much CPF for editing all of this together, a lot of work, watched it over 2 days & it was very entertaining, no doubt the best of its kind they've ever done ;-) x.
The pitch of Ashleys voice When he goes "ya remember Maxine don't ya"
David saying “This sucks” had me laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Beat mate
Edge of the seat stuff, Outstanding storyline, You and me always
Thankyou for this classic ‘Cori’ storyline x Audrey’s comment ‘bit early for me actually’ when Gail was self medicating with ‘drink’ is classic. Gail is now questioning Audrey’s drinking habits in 2022 eps … maybe Audrey is self medicating now too!
I was just thinking, after everything Richard put her through, you'd think Audrey would now feel deja-vu with Stephen. Poor Gail, her half-brother is like a milder version of Richard.
This was a fantastic story line, Richard was a great visit villan
1:47:05 - When Eileen & Norris were chatting about Richard's crimes, little did Eileen know that something similar was to come her way, 12 years on with Pat Phelan. I'd say both Hillman & Phelan were equally evil, I don't think you can say one was more evil than the other.
Hillman's actions were as evil, but there was genuine moments where he still had regret and guilt
over time he seemed to get over it but even then he confessed to Gail because part of him couldn’t handle the lies anymore
when he returns he’s had a complete breakdown where he’s gone full on suicidal and thinks dying with his family is the only future for him
Whereas Pat Phelan while having some good moments in his life, was never sorry, never had any regrets and or qualms about his deeds
I can’t say Hillman was totally evil because there’s evidence where he still had moments of humanity over his crimes, and in the end he went totally insane from the stress and guilt and fear...
Whereas I don't think Pat ever once had a moment of guilt or regret over anything he did.
Phelan was depraved whereas Hillman was coldly warped. Phelan only used Eileen whereas Hillman was obsessively devoted to Gail. Phelan seemed to have enjoyed a good life whereas Hillman knew nothing but disappointment, only getting lucky very late in life. Phelan was proud to have a daughter while Hillman was ashamed of his sterility. Comparing with other villains, I think Phelan was more like Carla's rapist ex Frank while Hillman was more like Carla's suicidal ex Tony.
@@mckenzie.latham91 Richard never had guilt. Those moment where he looks like he's regretful is because his actions never gave him the outcome he wanted. Maxine died in vain and Emily survived the attack so he never got the money for her house. He did it for nothing and so he felt "guilt" because of that. If it had all gone to plan he wouldn't have cared about them and would have been happy since he got what he wanted.
This must have taken forever :) Thanks so much
Emma Clarke The best part of a year but worth it haha
@@corrieplattfan4847 so much, all for us :') I'm touched
@@corrieplattfan4847Thank you SO much, you are brilliant❤❤❤❤❤❤
Superb job on editing down a superb story. Thank you, you’ve made my lockdown. Eh, Gail, eh??
The actress of Gail platt, can’t actually swim, so I don’t know how she did it lol
Watch Richard hillman exposed, it shows how
20:50 I think that’s the nicest I’ve ever seen Norris
Norris maybe annoying but he's always been very protective of his 'ladies', Rita and Emily.
Thank you for uploading and all your hard work. I’ve watched them all and I’m half way through this one, can’t wait to finish!
Thanks for the effort that went into this - the days when both Coronation St and Eastenders were decent...
Sadly they had to compete with reality TV in the 2000s then social media in 2010s, that's why soaps plunged downhill fast after that.
Thank you for uploading this ^^
That song he had playing in the car is only like 2 and a half minutes long, so I guess we‘re meant to assume he had it on loop for the whole ordeal?
I mean, he said he had it prepared, so I doubt it was the radio
It was a cassette wasn't it?
It was an ordeal having to listen to it.
@@bsaunders5271True 🤣🤣
the final part! yes! thank you for all your hard work
That feeling when you watched it all
What feeling
Empty :( I have nothing to look forward to at night
@@richardhillman9893 you wouldn't know what feelings are Richard, but we feel empty. Like we've seen it all and now there's nothing
I remember watching it when it was originally broadcast and now that feels like a really long time ago
@@rol1517 I feel old now because I almost feel sorry for Richard after his sob story about mother and wives. I never paid attention to his back story when I watched this as a kid.
Gail's best husband, never cheated on her, accepted her children, and always provided. One of the old school.
😂😂
He did cheat
No
Richard was a very kind man. He only went crazy because of Audrey constantly making bogus accusations against him that drove him insane
Richard was a great man. Noris drove him crazy
Thanks for taking the time to put all this together, the perfect watch for last night😊
Those rings could have got a bit of money for Jack and Vera
😂😂😂 I think that every time!!!
This whole story with Richard Hillman is what caused David to turn and made him become a villain. He may not have been a murderer like Richard, but this sent David over the edge and was the roots of all David’s wrong doings over the years
The Richard hillman storyline is one of the best they have ever done well done keep up the good work
ICONIC. Thanks for the upload :D
Thank you!!
I completely missed this story.
Have just watched the whole terrifying saga with fascinated horror!
Anyone else really confused ab how they held their breath for that long ? I bearly can for ab 20 seconds !
probably because they knew they would die if they didnt
When ur in that situation it’s a life or death thing you know if u don’t do it you’ll die
Perhaps adrenaline and instinct in that situation?
i can hold my breath for like 3 minutes
You can go about 3 minutes without taking a breath
She came home to get the children’s tea ready and she found that man who became the baddie, didn’t she.
Thank you for putting this on much appreciated. Thank you 😊 x
I wish there was a behind the scenes of this
There is! czcams.com/video/-KMx4qWwtLM/video.html Behind the scenes for this storyline begins around 41mins in.
@@corrieplattfan4847 I'm convinced you're a God who knows everything
@@Zero-Zero-Zero-Zero I’ve done my homework. ;)
Outstanding!
Just what I needed today
Corrie started to go down hill about this time, never recovered either.
To be fair how were they going to follow this?
What about Maya, Dev, Sanita episodes Maya was a great villainess a real psycho. Those episodes were every bit as good. True a shorter line but still awesome.
@@donnieallemanni8572 They were popcorn thrills though. This whole storyline with Hillman was a slow burner, it built and built over a long period of time. He was the perfect psychopath but there was elements of something admirable about him, his behaviour had a purpose it wasnt just run of the mill murder there was a stor behind it. He killed to provide for his ready made family, a family hed coveted his whole adult life,, you cant excuse his actions but you can feel a little sorry for him to some degree. He was the perfect psychology treatment whereas Phelan/Maya etc were just pointless crackpots without no real backstory and their behaviojr and murders seemed utterly pointless. They and other soaps have never been able to top this storyline and are never likely to because they havent got the patience to let a story grow organically,, they dont seem to be able to get a character to slowly build but also they cant find the right actor with the charisma to play such a role,, they seem more interested in creating short term explosive storylines not the frog in a boiling pan types. Also the characters he killed had become fan favorites like Maxine, Dougie and the attempted murders of Emily and Audrey,, fans of the show were heavily invested in those characters.
you and me by the wannadies is absolutely iconic in this
Your just Norman Bates with briefcase such iconic line from Gail to Richard
Ashleys voice was hilarious
"he's not coming back" Gail lovey, you sure?
Funny how last few seconds in Richard hilman storyline is Gail ringing Steven he turns out to be a future serial killer
Love that it only took 1:53 for our first "Oh GAIL"
I love this whole storyline its so interesting as its about my favourite people the platts
Can't believe they put bethany through that
Hillman was the best villain coronation street ever had
Nobody thought of just pulling up the handbrake then?
They tried to do that , also wouldn't that send the car skidding if Richard was pressing the accelerator at the same time?
Deirdre was saying, “I want to go home!” 6 years before and Kenn said, “You nutter!” She went, “NOOO!” And guess where they ended up.
i remember rushing home from school in canada to catch these every day for months!
Do people in Canada struggle with the Yorkshire accent and dialect? I suppose a lot of you have grandparents and such from the UK, giving you some insight into the style of speaking.
I'm watching this while my partners shopping waiting for him to come out lol thankyou for taking the time to upload :)
Why does Gail whisper all the time? It's so irritating!
KathD10 yeah that's true it's really irritating
@@simrankooner4426 Mm I agree but it might have something to do with the scriptwriters

The journalists was Matthew king from emmerdale
Thank you for all the Richard Hillman parts they were amazing kind regards from Birmingham😊
I know it’s only a tv show but that was a huge mistake letting them move back home, they should have known the house was a target
I don't think they could've stopped them if Gail insisted but yeah they should've at least had a police car parked outside the house guarding it.
@@imogenonscreen8054 exactly it was a mistake, I know it’s a tv show but what a fuck up not having a policeman outside
Steve and Karen were brilliant at times
Karen always was especially from mid 2003- her exit. Suranne Jones is just a brilliant actress.
🤣My favourite moment is Kev heroically not going in the water.
It was so fun to watch this again! Thank you!!
Why did Kevin not seem that bothered/shocked/worried throughout the whole scenes of Richard driving them into the canal. Martin thanked tommy for jumping in and saving his family when it should've been martins job. Martin jumped in the water and assisted but tommy did more
Martin did jump in, but he went to get Sarah and Bethany
kevin just stood there ...i noticed that
Didnt watch Corrie but seen the canal scene a million times but never knew why. Now I do and it was awesome! Good work!
Best villain in Coronation Street history. Never missed an episode with this storyline when Richard was in it. Exact same with Meena in Emmerdale. Best soap villains of all time.
The guy who played Richard opened a budget supermarket in the town I lived in. It was a big thing! 😂
41:46 Even Bethany was shocked lmao
The episode of Richard Hillman confessing his crimes and nearly killing his family now aired 20 years ago. I was only 5 years old when this aired. How quickly time passes!
they should of used sarahs scissors to stab him to get to him to stop driving, it may have distracted him at least
Good point but they couldn’t undo their seatbelts so they couldn’t go over to him and if the scissors were stuck e.g his shoulder he could of taken the scissor out and done is back to them but worse.
The richard hillman storyline would have and could have made a great movie in its own right.
@ 35:11 is Matthew King from Emmerdale playing the role of the press. LOL
Yep
Man poor David, if you think about it he'll have been all alone in that car knowing Richard was right there until Sarah and Bethany showed up
David would’ve been there for ages if Sarah and Bethany didn’t show up for a while, besides Richard was waiting for the rest of the family to arrive home to take them hostage and put them in the car. He might’ve put the radio on for David to make him less scared
It would’ve been bad for David, Sarah and Beth if Richard put the child lock on before driving into the canal
Well they were already tied up he probably didn't think he had to.
If it was real it wouldn't matter. They'd all be dead. He drive into the canal at about 50 or 60 mph. The kids weren't belted and would be launched towards the front of the car. If not dead from the crash they be KO'd and drown.
@@imogenonscreen8054think of it realistically, Richard’s car was driving between 50-65mph, David and Sarah managed to break free while David and Richard fought over the steering wheel. When the car launched into the canal David and Sarah would’ve went straight through the windshield from the force. But they most likely put their seat belts back once David realised that Richard was about to drive head on into the canal.
The Doctor Who reference is quiet apt seen as Helen Worth had a part in Doctor Who before Coronation Street.
The last time David was happy 💔 “our Richard” :(
Thank you!! 😊
Great job with this story!!!
Must of took forever to edit all your uploads. Great job m8
Could you do the Alan Bradley Storyline if you haven't already? I read he was the inspiration behind Richard Hillman and Pat Phelan.
The actor who played Alan Bradley was married to the woman who plays Audrey. He died this year, in January
That lad that had David by the scruff,"you're dad's a murderer " candice "yeah well you're mum's a shoplifter" lol 😂😂😂
Richard Hillman... a serial killer who it took over a year to get caught out...
Nowadays, some viewers complain if they don't get caught out within a week...
When, exactly, did viewers become so impatient???
Some great acting at this time you can see why viewing figures were so high unlike now.
