Binge watching in 2024. Fantastic,

I remember my husband wearing the same style skin tight flared jeans like Brian Tilsley except i was banned from laundering & ironing his jeans as he took such exceptional care regarding them He washed them separately from anything else & took AGES to iron each pair so perfectly with the sharpest crease line down each leg! He had to put them on, then lie back on our bed to be able to pull up the zip, so they were skin tight! Lol I was happy to let him get on with it, also happy he was a fit bloke to suit wearing said jeans Plus his expertly ironed shirts! Ive never come across a chap who actually loved ironing clothes & was happy to iron all of our laundry! He was no cissy or fuddy duddy but loved his " gear" & liked to look smart, he was also very happy to help with housework So i was a very lucky lady We used to laugh that it should have been me that went out to work & he staying home with our daughter doing the chores We still look back at the late 1970s & early/mid 80s fashions & laugh at way we looked We have both retained our figures & can still fit into some of our favourite clothes of that time, that we kept for prosperity Including our HUGE platform boots & shoes! I dont know how the heck we actually walked in that footwear! I can even remember running for the bus in 3 or 4 inch platforms & Keeping upright! The 70s& 80s were amazing for fashions & they didnt cost an arm or leg like good clothes of today cost. It was a good time for music too Great television programmes Including the BEST of CORRIE! Cheers 🇬🇧👧

We keep talking about the 'golden age' of Corrie being 76-84 which I agree with. You can tell at this stage midway through '83 that sadly it's coming to an end. It's pretty obvious a lot of the actors are struggling with health issues, notable Bernard Youens, Jack Howarth, Doris Speed and Peter Dudley (obviously after his stroke). Can't help but feel a little sad watching it, ah well - can always wind the clock back to 1976 :-)

Totally. Sadly though, the world and type of characters that coronation Street was based on no longer exist. A society where people rarely went anywhere, had brutal jobs, often drank hard, were deeply socially conservative and were obsessed with their neighbours. The world is very different now, for better or for worse. It means that the whole premise that coronation Street was based in doesn't really work anymore, which is why they pad it out now with ridiculous over the top nonsense.

I love seeing the cats in the opening credits. Do they still have cats at the start?

So much has been said about Coronation Street's decline. At its best, it was fantastic character driven entertainment. Excellent writing and a good dose of humour. But it really was based on Tony Warren's experiences of a local community in the 1940s and 1950s. As time went on, it became less like the world outside. It still portrayed a world where people didn't go anywhere, ate nothing but fish and chips, drank heavily and frequently, and were deeply socially conservative. By this time in the 1980s it was starting to become fairly unbelievable that a community near Manchester would have no Asian or black people. There were no gay characters until much, much later. Nowadays, the society we live in doesn't fit well into the old soap opera format - it's partly why Coronation Street is so disappointing now, and why viewing figures have gone down. The Hilda Ogden and Annie Walker types that used to be so common in the 1950s and 1960s don't really exist any longer.

The fourth and fifth episodes look odd as they were broadcast with a slight zoom in which makes it look as though ones watching with binoculars...not my fault. Uncle Albert sitting in his chair in the living room was nicely done with the writers making Ken say that he is now "indistinguishable" from his surroundings. A nice touch by the then writers to let us know they understand the show and you have no choice but to agree automatically. Best thing for me this month was Hilda saying to Stan and Eddie that they are like Siamese twins... Eddie's retort is classic.

Truly classic Coronation St.

Hilda was the essence of the street. She provided much humour but was always treated so badly. Struggled all her life for little. A husband that only ever showed love ONCE when her brother died (but still pinched money from her) and the butt of jokes. Rather a tragic character really but always with a smile and a giggle, on her face, even though she felt she was simply existing; hardworking but never getting anywhere. She's made me laugh out loud but I've also shed a tear for her at times. Jean moulded the strongest character out of all Coronation Street actors. Pure comedy & tragedy in a soap. ❤ 🎭

About Len Fairclough - the actor who played him, Peter Adamson, had been through that very unpleasant trial alleging he'd molested some girls, but was found innocent. The main reason he was sacked was because he was selling stories about other cast members to the press - he was very unflattering about a lot of them, describing them as "amateurs". There was an absolutely posionous atmosphere on set and the other stars of the show were furious with him. None of the rest of the cast ever contacted him again and he went on record to say that he'd twice written to Julie Goodyear (who he'd been very close to) but she hadn't replied to him. It wasn't the first time he'd been in trouble though - as far back as the 60s, Granada had given him a formal warning about his behaviour because of his heavy drinking.
