You know it’s 1970 when you’re 5 years old and your dad sends you down the shops for razorblades 😆

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

Aye - and telly you to run there and gallop back.

[@elainedoe1981]

Maggie Steed, what a wonderfully versatile actress.. Everything from Corrie, to Shine On Harvey Moon, Pie In The Sky and Morse! That's Talent!

[@andrewparker8806]

Wow a very early appearance of Maggie Steed. She’s only aged about 23/24 here, it’s amazing to see who pop-up from time to time in classic Corrie! 🌟👍🏼

[@lesleygoodall264]

Thought I knew the face

[@jasbegs1258]

Wow, just realised this.

[@alexanderjones9572]

I’ll be looking out for her ( much more recently she was Joyce Murray in EastEnders).

[@Newpegasuspainter]

Yeah and also interesting who in those days would sacrifice integrity to culturally appropriate for a few bob and recognition.

[@RiaLake]

@@Newpegasuspainter It's acting!🙄

[@REX74]

Minnies face when Hilda told her that gypsies ate cats ...don't make characters like that anymore!

[@alexanderjones9572]

Like who? Minnie or Hilda? I could imagine Evelyn saying what Hilda said.

[@Newpegasuspainter]

That's right. Some people have had an education since and will not tolerate racism from anybody.

[@cn4936]

I cried laughing at that scene. I flipping hate cats and Hilda filling her mind with such nonsense has me crying 🤣

[@dennishill8356]

Thank you very much for taking the time to upload this huge grab bag of treats.

[@carolineg1872]

Let's send the young kids into the street to play. No worries at all. I used to walk to a playground nearby, on my own and spend all day there. I was a similar age to the twins.

[@Newpegasuspainter]

Jim fixed that eh?

[@paullynton-green6570]

Happy days.

[@danrobinson572]

I can remember back to 1977 going outside and playing or going to the park without any problems. Than around 5pm mom yelling for my brother and I to come home for dinner. “ RJ - DannyBoy “ dinner!!!! And you better get off because if you heard dad yelling for ya than you were in trouble.

[@kandalooma]

Sending little kids off to the shop brings back memories of a lost era. In Sydney in the late 60s when I was 6-7 years old people were always sending me to the corner shop. And what do you think I most often had to buy? A pack of cigarettes lol.

[@cattycorner8]

Timely for the US right now.

[@Susan.1958]

I love Irma she was a laugh she used to live near my grandad in the 1960s 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ysgol3]

Val was so lovely - and Ken hasn't mentioned her in years.

[@artemiszeus9735]

Ken mentioned the 50th anniversary of Val's death to Carla in an episode in January.

We've all wanted to shut the door on the Ogdens sooner or later. What did Ena say? "They'd ruin another couple?"

I was 7 in 1970 and played outside and told to come home when it started to get dark nowadays your likely to be stabbed or kidnapped modern life is not always better

[@bunty6268]

YAAAAAAY and super doooooper YAAAAAAY Auntie😻👌

[@alexanderjones9572]

12.13 proves predictions can be wrong. Telling Val she’ll be a mother of 5 children and a grandmother of 12? She won’t be either.

[@atonio2476]

(13:28 Annie Walker) Four and six - 4/6 is 22½p in decimal coinage.

[@alexanderjones9572]

Odd time for Ken to go abroad for two months-in October! He evidently doesn’t intend to be around for Christmas then!

[@jasbegs1258]

Quite shocking the discrimination of the travellers - thankfully things have moved on in that regard.- albeit only somewhat.

[@alexanderjones9572]

Always find it strange when someone says they love someone ( as Ken did to Val) and the person goes ‘and me, darling.’ Sounds like she’s saying she loves herself! Shouldn’t the response be ‘I love you too.” ?

[@itsrickyschannel.]

It means the same thing, its more like "And I share the sentiment too", as in reversing what was just said "I love you", back to you.

[@paulchristopher3887]

Blimey, 1970 was not the year for political correctness. You’ve got Hilda calling travellers Gippos and then a traveller caller Annie Walker a Bitch “ Great Stuff

[@morypal]

(And I'm not attacking you or arguing or whatever, I'm trying to explain why political correctness is laughable and sad).

[@simonshreeve5580]

This political correctness has become really pickey.

[@simonshreeve5580]

It is a pity Eddie Yeats was not there at the time. Eddie would have defended Hilda. Eddie always looked up to Hilda.

Some people change a lot, and others don’t. Maggie Steed here looks totally different to when she recently played Joyce Murray in EastEnders. William Roache, however, still looks pretty similar to how he looked on 1970!

So Ken is going to the big apple 🍎 New York. Especially in 1970 wow he’s in for a treat going there at that year. He might come back a different man hahaha 😂..

The pre-decimal shilling coin (5p) and the two-shilling coin (10p) were still to be found in the coinage, alongside the decimal versions, up until about 1990.

[@pandacutlets83]

To me, Lucille has similarities to Angie Freeman, not only face wise and physically, but both were a bit bolshy too...anyway..

I am looking for a particular episode. Does anyone remember Minnie trying to help a young chap in trouble. He ended up shooting himself. Can’t remember the year, maybe 1970, I was told that the man’s name was probably Joe Donell, though not certain. Minnie did such a splendid job acting. I would really like to see it again, can anyone help. Thank you.

[@Lucy0809]

They eat cats as well 😹😹😹😹😹

[@SkyeandsSummer]

Poor Minnie. 😂

[@kuchikopi4631]

Well my neighbour's cat did get shot by the travellers who decided to camp near the field where I live 🤷 poor thing had to be put down, it was kind of my neighbour's fault as well, as it was a persian long hair cat. Those kind of cats should really only be kept indoors, but hey, ho, I can't help if people get offended by the truth.

I think that Margaret Thatcher got her political inspiration from Annie Walker.

[@evangeline77x]

They're actors, not real Irish travellers, so regardless of the statement the writers were trying to make they still relied on stereotypes.

If you think about it, most of the characters in this are stereotypes.
