Love Stan and Hilda

Although. I really. Enjoy. These early. Episodes. Must. ADmit. The. Acting. Is. Very poor. Self. Conscious. And. Embarrasing

Just one more prediction to come true! Thank you for posting!

Paula Wilcox , a star is born Even had Ray stumbling over his words !

[@carolineg1872]

And now she's back on Corrie over 50 years later as Elaine Metcalfe.

[@jasbegs1258]

Wow, didn't recognise her- must look again.

[@natureandphysics403]

She was on Benny Hill once. "Oh Sssondra ..."

Its a pity she didnt stay as Ray's sister and had still had Tim as her son...it would've given her another dimension and connection to Tracey Barlow.

[@momsterous]

Ray, with the only decent hairstyle he ever had. Nice.

[@carolineg1872]

Len's hair has changed. You could drive a bus through that parting. Fashions 😎 although much better than the shaggy ones of the 70's.

[@trumpwon2081]

Violet Carson's always had a ramrod straight back, even as she aged.

Probaby from years of playing the piano in music halls.

Apollo 8 back from the Moon just a month ago and "Proud Mary" hits radio this week ...

Paula wilcox was a brilliant actress pity she didnt get a long storyline.

[@Deborah4Antiques]

I was just watching a Corrie from the 1980's, Hilda has not changed!!!

[@jasbegs1258]

Emily staying with Elsie? How long did that last? The Story in this episode gives a bit of a background and insight in to Ray - explains certain things. Tough Start.

[@alexanderjones9572]

Emily “Christian names never trip very easily off my tongue...” I noticed in the 90s Percy was always “Mr Sugden” like Elsie was “Mrs Tanner.” Was Ernest always “Mr Bishop?” 😂😂

[@swaggerjagg22]

For Ernest it was mostly "Oh Ernest..." because he was always up to something like the time the girl from the factory had a crush for Ernest and Emily wasn't amused 😂

[@theculturedthug6609]

@@swaggerjagg22 Was the guy from the League of Gentlemen the one who use to say "this is a local shop for local people * based on Ernest because he is the spit of him lol.

[@tracyg7002]

Yeah, Ray's hair is better than it was in the 70's.

Soon to go to Color My mum was happy when black and white ended and proper as they really were images came in.

[@gearoid9835]

[@happiness4812]

The music during the poening and credits sound a bit like a mix between the opening credits from Eastenders and Steptoe and Son😂😂

[@londonlady227]

Ive noticed when they opened the room to the hall, the stairs werent seen, just a wall.

[@MJ69ism]

Easy to forget how fookin gorgeous Ray was, shit!

[@yonkieponkie]

why have they got two radios in the same room?

[@roderickscott7429]

Just got wiki info on Pauls Wilcox s appearances in corrie , apart from this episode , she was in 22 jan , then this one and then 29 January, 3 and 5 of February , i don,t suppose ......

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

Ena Sharples must be as old as God. In fact I`m convinced that when God turned up in Coronation Street he had the wits to say, "Ena Sharples, I presume ?"

[@PE-dq2em]

Ray's sister was never seen again - not even for Ray's wedding to Dreary ... OR for his funeral.

[@MJ69ism]

Forgot how fookin gorgeous Ray was, shit!

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

I prefer the women. All of them ( barring perhaps Mini Caldwell and Ena Sharples ) were prettier than Ray Langton.

[@Ross.Cavendish]

I had the hots for Ray Langton and Billy Walker.

[@yonkieponkie]

Stan comments on "£800", which was the cost of their house

[@ysgol3]

Valerie looks so beautiful with her hair tied back.

Anyone else think Len looks just ...wrong...with his hair smoothed down and parted, instead of curly?

[@mcresearch]

He looks like Ernie Wise with hair like that.

[@bunty6268]

Yaaaasy🤣😋😂

Best

[@gwynnethcoan761]

Never liked Paula Wilcox but quite impressed with her in this, good acting. She was awful as Tim’s mother in recent Corrie, though.
