As Bet struggles to raise funds to buy the pub it's looking like the end of her days behind the iconic bar at the Rovers Return.

I agree, since 2000 I lost interest in Corrie. The producer at the time turned it into a Northern 'EastEnders' and destroyed the show by focusing on issue driven instead of character driven storylines. In 2004, the soap changed direction again by turning it into a terrible carry on film with OTT 'comedy' storylines. Nowadays, it's back to issue driven storylines which are badly acted and a complete waste of airtime,there always seems to be a serial killer or someone having an affair on the street! Corrie was once my favourite soap but now I think it's time to put it out of its misery and cancel it once and for all which should have happened bout 20 years ago, it would have went out on a high if it finish back then IMO.

There was definitely still great comedy before that though; characters like Fred Elliot, Graeme Proctor, Roy and Hayley Cropper, the iconic Blanche, Becky and Steve McDonald, David and Kylie (in early years), and nosey Norris lol, to name a few. For me the show truly died early 2010's, however it started going downhill late 1990s, apart from the odd iconic storyline (Richard Hillman saga, evil David, tram crash, etc.) that one would tune in for now and again but not watch it consistently, because of so many wooden characters and storylines, as well as talentless actors (primarily because producers started to cast too many young actors, as opposed to in the olden days). Anyway this is my opinion; the golden era will always be 1960-mid 1980s, silver era from mid 1980s to late 1990s, bronze/silver era from late 1990s to early 2010s, and after that, it doesn't even fall under the radar.

The last thing Rita said to Mavis, before Mavis went to The Rover's, was that she did have the money, that she had spoken to the accountant, and HE told her it was a good investment. Rita was very excited about the prospect, and Mavis blabbed. So what happened? The accountant is suddenly wrong? He made a mistake? Rita was very excited about it at her second meeting with Bet also. Rita could have bought the Pub, under the promise by Bet, that Rita have a say in the way the Pub is run, and being a business woman who manages money well, has savings and earns profits, Rita's input might just have made The Rover's profitable. They could have used the profits to reinvest in the Pub, and make it so that it is worth more down the road than what it cost to buy it in the first place. There is Rita's return on investment, and she risks nothing, because if it turns out that the Pub fails financially, in the long run, Rita can still sell it for more than she paid. She did a lot more than let Bet down, she betrayed her.

I don't know - talk is she became far too big for her boots, diva-ish and spiteful, and Corrie cast and crew were only too glad to see the back of her. The character of Bet Lynch became tougher and more brusque as the years went on - and I suspect this was the scriptwriters reflecting the actress who played her. Bet was a fantastic character given the most amazing situations and scripts. She was a gift of a role for any actress, and yes, Julie Goodyear was superb in the role and made it her own. But don't forget, she did not write the lines she spoke, the dialogue was pure gold and she was incredibly lucky to land the role of a lifetime. It was moving to see her say goodbye to the Rovers - and to Coronation Street - as we had seen her rival actress Pat Phoenix do, exiting in similar style in a black cab after some chat with the cab driver, 11 years earlier. Elsie Tanner was a far bigger and better character than Bet in my view and she elicited more respect and affection from the public. Poor Pat only had another two years to live after she left Corrie, she died far too young of lung cancer at 62. Julie is still going strong at 75 despite being a chain smoker too. I think it's a shame she returned to Corrie after this for an ill-fated, short time - apparently her diva ways had got out of control by this time and the hard work and long hours involved in starring on the soap didn't suit her. They say she often failed to learn her lines. She should have made this episode her final goodbye and never returned. But the fame and kudos of appearing in the show is a big draw for an actress who enjoys the limelight. I reckon if Pat Phoenix had lived she'd have ended up going back to the famous Cobbles too - more glamorous and feisty than ever! Oh how I wish that could have happened. Great to see this episode - brilliant script as always. many thanks.

Not really no, in Eastenders and Brookside[both before Aussie soaps] they heavily featured young characters since the early 80s. Brookside paved the way for the new era and Eastenders took its lead, that's where the ratings and publicity were so Corrie ultimately joined that style in 1997. It was Brookside that ultimately set the tone for all soaps with its gritty style as we have today. Ironic that Brookside ultimately was the 1 that failed in the end.
@JayJay-nc7pr10 ай бұрын
I’d argue that the Plane Crash storyline of 1993 in Emmerdale completely reset the soap genre in this country, by the 1990s Coronation Street & Emmerdale we’re both lagging behind, Brookside & EastEnders, the former two has been on the air since 1960 & 1972 respectively and they had an audience that had grown with them, where as the latter two soaps, plus the Australian soaps were gaining younger viewers, Crossroads had been axed a few years earlier, Emmerdale was going the same way, and Coronation Street at the time feared it wouldn’t make it to the 2000s. The plane crash in Emmerdale placed all the soaps on a even keel, big storylines were in, character driven storylines were pushed to the back burner.

It was all over for Corrie once Bet left, she was the last of the Corrie greats. Brilliantly written and acted scene between Bet and her spoiled brat stepdaughter Vicky. She thought she was doing Bet a huge favour by renting out a house to her - she wasn't even giving it to her rent-free! Bet did the right thing, how patronising, and after all Bet had done for her. Why was creepy Don Brennan brought in to do Bet's final scene with her? He was never a popular character and did not deserve that honour - in fact, Corrie producers eventually turned him into a stalker who kidnapped Alma Sedgewick and drove into the canal with her! The actress who played his wife Ivy did not get on with him - she had adored lovely Peter Dudley (Bert Tilsley) who died tragically young of a heart attack, they were great pals. The second Mr Tilsley was not half as nice - on and off screen - and that's why the bosses made the character a baddie then wrote him out. Corrie actors were difficult at their peril, as they didn't tend to last long on the show if they were unpopular behind the scenes! Great episode - thanks for uploading!

I think people here are being quite deluded over the old style of Corrie pre 1997 before Brian Park transformed it.Yea it was a different style but it had being highly criticized by fans and critics and ratings were suffering because it was too detached from reality and modern living ,outdated and lacked the gritty and more fast paced dramatic style of Brookside and Eastenders. Yes Corrie of yesteryear was a lot more innocent and lighthearted but noway in hell would or could it have survived in that format, The ratings would have went into terminal decline. You really can't please people. Had they kept in this style and being cancelled people here would say it should have changed to be more modern etc. Also it is becoming cliche for every soap clip 2 years or older on youtube gets a comment about how it was better back then and had lost its way.

I agree, I remember the time this happened quite clearly. Brian Park did what he had to do to save the show, but before he came along maybe Julie Goodyear thought it was best to jump ship. Maybe she was right, although her career ended, at least she left on her terms. Corrine was in hard times in those days... If she hadn't have left, maybe Brian Park would have killed the character off.

@@CharlieFlemingOriginal I don't think she'd have being forced out with Brian Park though. Afterall he kept all the vintage characters and just got rid of dead wood. She was never deadwood and quite prominent and in fairness he didn't fire any prominent characters who'd being there for decades with the cast cull. I am thinking that soaps have a handful of characters that no new producer is allowed to touch. So in EastEnders Sharon, Stacey, Ian and Phil would be on the safe list and before that Peggy, Dot and Pauline and Grant would always have been safe from the chop unless they did something very bad. In Corrie I'd say back then Ken, Deirdre, Mavis, Emily, Rita, Betty would be on the do not touch list. In Emmerdale you'd have Cain Dingle, Eric Pollard, Zac Dingle and maybe a few more of the Dingles like Chas and Charity that no producer is allowed to axe. But having said that there were some shocking axings over the years such as Kathy from Emmerdale or Ronnie from Eastenders;I would have thought they were immune from the axe. The producer who killed off Ronnie though was axed himself soon after for the mess he made.

Julie Goodyear played a good part for a number of years, and she played it well. She then became a parody of herself in later years. The most recent return was bloody awful.

I totally agree. The return was a bit cringe worthy

@@craigyboy7843 that's the 2002 return she was awful in. She was better in the 2003 return in Blackpool with liz Mcdonald, Fred, Steve and Karen.
