[@joriah69]

Cool, the day I turned 3yrs old....and I met Doris Speed many times as an adult, great lady, cheers for this post

[@youcanthandlethetruth7957]

This was the first thing that I watched on television always rember Ena Sharples, her face was the first face I saw on Coronation Street, brings back alot of memories. 😊😁

[@williamf4544]

wow never thought id ever see Irma Ogdens wedding - awsome thanks

[@EuropopTop]

Great share : thank you. Love seeing the characters from the past.

[@carolineg1872]

Annie Walker, the original Hyacinth "Bouquet"

[@darganx]

Ironic that Patricia Routledge appears in a few episodes around this time.

[@greggildersleeve3484]

If Annie and Hyacinth had met, the world would have imploded.

Irma Ogden went on to be Nellie Dingle. Zak's first wife in Emmerdale

Get thee gone Nellie Dingle 😂

[@misssparky5574]

The exact date my first nephew was born. My parents were at the registry office when someone in our family got married. Fathers only paid for their daughters wedding if it took place in a church.

[@carolineg1872]

Nice advice from Stan. "Belt her". 😯

[@danrobinson572]

Why wasn’t her parents at the wedding?

[@connielincoln8681]

Ty so much for uploading these episodes great fan from nz here

[@ohuntermc9321]

Ironic hearing Lucille joke about alcoholism given the fact that the Actress (Jennifer Moss) would be sacked nearly ten years later for exactly that reason.

[@geenasmith7209]

Hilda was pretty when she didn't have those curlers in her hair

[@Newpegasuspainter]

All are beautiful until the veil of disgust and vanity drops in front of their eyes.

[@CornishMiner]

Nasty blackmailer that Frank Turner. Got lots of drink and cash out of the Walkers before Jerry beat him up in the back alley never to be seen again.

[@jacksugden8190]

Ogden’s daughter looked to old to be at home with parents.

[@alexanderjones9572]

Well-I did sympathise with Val when she was raging at Ken in the last episode for leaving the kids alone-but how long did SHE leave them outside the shop whilst chatting to Lionel? With the door shut! What if what happened to Christopher Hewitt happened again?

[@claddaghclare22]

I cottoned onto that, too!

[@greggildersleeve3484]

My thoughts exactly.

[@greggildersleeve3484]

15:27 Sadly prophetic.

[@danrobinson572]

The street I live on now is called Roslyn street hahaha 😂

[@RonaldBustamante-l9y]

WOW!!Literally the day after my birth!!

[@anjkovo2138]

Lol...Stan...''If that doesn't work BELT HER''

[@Newpegasuspainter]

Phewww...what a good job he keeps the post office money separate from his dodgy corner shop business.

[@greggildersleeve3484]

27:14 In the previous available episode, Ken left the twins alone while he popped down to the Rover's for ciggies, and Val excoriates him for it. In this episode, Val apparently leaves the twins outside while she goes into the corner shop ("I'm just taking them for a walk"). What was it the pot called the kettle?

[@EuniceStone-s9j]

Lucille is so pretty and tiny.

[@Rebekah347]

That towering pickle hat ~! Who is that horrible man?

[@danrobinson572]

Funny her own father said belt her if she gets out of line.

[@greggildersleeve3484]

I thought that such a comment was weird, too. It's a vesitige of the Ogdens' early back story that Stan was an abuser. To my knowledge, he was never shown abusing Hilda. I'm glad for that.

[@alfredsedgewick2184]

​​@@greggildersleeve3484 there was a storyline within the first few years of the Ogden's appearing on the street that featured Stan's abuse. I believe it had something to do with Stan winning a significant sum of money and then finding out he was mistaken, and taking it out on Hilda. We don't see the hiding he gives her, but we do see the result afterwards.

[@fran23324]

Lucille, or was it Miss Marple?? 😂😂

[@alexanderjones9572]

Why weren't Stan and Hilda at the wedding? They were on good terms with David weren't they? The only weddings I've known where a parent stayed away were if that parent was dead or on bad terms with the couple!

[@carolineg1872]

Stan and Hilda couldn't afford a big do (father's pay for their daughters wedding) so Irma and David decided to elope and get married at a registry office instead with David's football mates at witnesses. As they were debating whether they had done the right thing, their parents, relatives and neighbours surprised them with a wedding having found out from a taxi driver, Ernie Bond.

[@EuniceStone-s9j]

My parents weren't at my wedding.

[@stevencassidy6982]

I see Elsie and Hilda are talking to each other in this one

Ken was a jerk.

[@geenasmith7209]

Hasn't changed much. Still a jerk sometimes

[@danrobinson572]

That joke was stupid but funny in a way.

[@secretmermaidgirl2878]

and although there's much jollity with the wedding and the preparations for it, and then the unexpected surprise 'do' after, there's also a lot of deeply unpleasant undercurrents which expose some of the very reactionary attitudes of the time ... in Annie Walker's opinion it's 'not a proper wedding' like she had in a church, various snide comments she makes about Irma not wearing white, ie thinly veiled snarky comments about Irma's not being a virgin and then Jack Walker both trying to disagree with her and say that times have moved on, but then his making comments about perhaps them 'having to get married' ie she's already pregnant, and Annie then acting all shocked and saying he's being 'vulgar' - - Then Stan's helpful and evidently not really even joking comments about how to keep the marriage - that if Irma doesn't behave right, David should 'belt her' - when I think of how many women then [and now] endure domestic violence, unremitting fear and aggression for decades ... perhaps have to escape to women's refuges, or end up hospitalised or dead - it's not so much of a laugh ... then there's little teenager Lucille's comments about being a secret alcoholic - which so many were both then and now - and then this horrid smarmy eyes-on-stalks gent [and I use the term in its loosest form] who the corner shop proprietor instantly knows is 'a bad'un' when he claps eyes on him - so the man deliberately asks for an item which he has spotted means that Mr Petty will have to go out the back, and uses the ten seconds to steal what looked like a pack of cigarettes from the counter - he comments in the prevalent sexist way that Val is a 'smashing bit o' stuff, that' to the disgust of Mr Petty ... and then heads off to the pub where he makes very cheeky banter to Lucille, eyes her up and down, tries to bamboozle her about paying for the rum, and then having discovered she's only 17 proceeds to openly blackmail the Walker's about potentially losing their licence by having had her behind the counter serving him ... OOOOOH he's a wrong 'un alright ...!! First properly nasty character I've seen on the Street so far ...
