Hilda gets the best lines! Pure pleasure watching archive Coronation street. I started with the first episode weeks ago and it's taken over to the extent that I've given up all my usual CZcamss. A thing I've noticed is the people leaveing the Rovers with drink still left in their glass, even Stan and Eddie who I'm sure would never do that. Hilda is my favourite character.
The beginning of the end, of some of coronation streets greatest characters, this was Ena Sharples last appearance, after being in the programme since the beginning, Violet Carson was to return,but became ill with pernicious anemia
That's Ken's MO. He is Judgemental of the way other people live their lives but does precisely what he wants, he might agonise briefly, then decides he's right as usual.
Actor Richard Shaw (born 19th November 1920), who played lothario trucker Dan, wasn't even attractive! If he'd been a tall, gorgeous Sean Connery type fair enough, but he was a deeply unsexy short-arse, who always looked like his enormous sheepskin coat was wearing HIM! The first two posters are absolutely right - definite shades of Sid James. And Bet and Elsie were supposed to be head over heels and fighting over this charmless, geriatric dwarf? Not remotely credible! That particular bit of disastrous casting (Dan the supposedly 'sexy, love-cheat lurry driver'), is a real bugbear of mine. Along with other casting nightmares involving gorgeous actresses in their physical prime, and embarrassingly over-the-hill actors. IMO Granada's Corrie has a history of choosing the most unappealing males as romantic leads for it's most glamorous leading ladies. They must have been male casting directors, for female casting directors would surely have cast those roles very differently! What an insult to the Street's most gorgeous sirens like Bet Lynch, Elsie Tanner and Rita Littlewood, who were forced to play love scenes with hideous old blokes like warty toad Peter Adamson, John Junkin and even Max Wall!
@@glamdolly30 Bet always got the worst. Dan Johnson was particularly repulsive in every way, but she never got together with an attractive and decent man. Des Foster, Alf's colleague on the council used her and lied to her. The policeman, who was happy to have a non-serious good time with her but was interested in Rita. And she briefly had something going with Len Fairclough and Jack Duckworth! Obviously, none of them is up to much, but Dan is by far the worst. He looks like he needs to be hosed down.
later in the 90s she meets Charlie the truck driver, he was nice and treated her well but they just didn't last. Bet seems incapable of sustaining happiness, it's like she feels she doesn't deserve it@@shylinh5939

@@MultiKs22 I agree, I would like to see 'Coronation Street' axed, as it's no longer the quality drama it was, and in my view no longer worthy of the name! The stark difference in quality between the show it used to be, and the dross it is today, is only too clear when you watch vintage episodes like these, from its prime. I last caught an episode around 3 years ago, and was shocked at both the poor standard of acting, and the weak, cliched script. But I share your view that the rot set in by the late 'nineties - I generally date the Street's demise to the arrival of the ghastly Battersbys.
What? utter bitchiness, nastiness, vitriol, hatred, spite, loathing, jealousy & hypocrisy, then we have the charming Mr Barlow, with his reputation, his on set nickname of being called ‘cockroach’ it’s pure heaven to watch. Oh & don’t forget the evil bitter twisted thoughts of Mr Tatlock. That’s one OAP who should have lost his memory coming back from his allotment.
I still cant understand how people could have a few pints or a double scotch at lunchtime. If i did that there would be no work after lunch, id either be full on for the day or have to go home bewildered to snooze..... 😂
I remember my first job in the late 80s, friday was pub dinner, I'd have 2 pints and be staggering about all afternoon, the older guys found it funny af of course. 😂 I Just realised I was only 16/17 as well ffs.
The pubs were full at lunchtime back then, and more than a few couldn't make it back into work in the afternoon. They would usually blame lunchtime food poisoning from the pub lunch 😂 and phone in work sick before ordering the next pint.
I remember watching this as a kid and rolling around laughing that Dan Johnson was supposed to be attractive to women. Elsie scraping the bottom of the barrel!
1:20:53 - Bet (with a sudden overdose of scary Baby Jane hair) and Vera, vying for the attentions of a wizened old Rumpelstiltskin. Dan the lorry driver was about as attractive as a gargoyle. Were they really that desperate?
I think they were that desperate. Only someone who's given up on life or gone insane could possibly find Dan Johnson anything other than hideous and to be avoided.
I was too young to watch this the first time around, so it's strange to see Peter Dean in Wetherfield instead of Albert Square. Is it just me who likes to add "Treacle" to the end of all his lines?
Ha! Ha! Dan is possibly the worst piece of casting ever seen. A swarthy dwarf pensioner, with a fake Cock-er-nee accent, who we are supposed to believe was such hot stuff that the Street's sex sirens Elsie and Bet both went ga-ga over him. As if!

Bit of a continuity error in this. Susan is actually only 15, not 16. They were born in 1965 so that makes her and Peter 15 in 1980, perhaps even 14. Weren't they born in May so their 15th birthday is coming up?

The actress who plays Susan Barlow is painfully wooden. Unfortunately in a cast of such good actors it really stands out. But it must have been nerve wracking for someone so young...good on her for giving it a go.

She doesn’t think that it’s wrong that he didn’t call her and tell her where he is, and where to call him??! How convenient for him that she has no idea where he is!! 😂🤣
