Every scene with Blanche in was a killer. 🤣

[@TheTalkoftheStreetPodcast]

Agreed. It says Best Bits, but it’s pretty much ALL Bits!

[@Sawrattan]

I could literally watch the entire show with just her alone 🤣

[@regant.cameron8237]

I used to cringe everytime I saw her. Nobody ruder or more opinionated. Not quite as shocking now that she's been gone for awhile but still someone I'd never want to know. Yikes 😬

[@johnjoyce341]

This is when Coronation Street and the soaps in general were worth watching.Great characters with fun and great storyline.

[@julz3tt3]

Definitely 😊

[@beverlygannon4141]

I agree it so crappy now 😭

[@keriannandrews7362]

Blanche and Deidre, brilliant actress’s

[@Fatima502]

Met her at a Manchester hotel bar about 15 years ago. With my friend plucked up courage to ask for an autograph. She agreed, but before I could suggest a photo she said, magnificently, "I only do photos outside, and I'm not going outside". I cherished hearing he say that more than I would any picture. When I looked at the autograph, she'd written, helpfully "Maggie Jones (Blanche)". I still have that piece of paper.

[@TheTalkoftheStreetPodcast]

Love it!

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Wonderful memory

[@leeroynozzaar]

That’s a amazing story,such a great actor

[@trevorthompson7604]

Blanche a true legend she brought fun to Coronation Street it has never been the same without her

[@ianp7661]

What a legend. This couldn't be further away from the Corrie we see now, guns, gangs and misery.

[@masterknife8423]

Dude there was an episode revolving around a robbery at Freshco's from the year 2000...

[@crevrath7374]

They still had serious issues stories around this era ie Jez quigley, leannes drug habit but the humour and writing was much stronger with much better characters compared to today's cast.

[@mfitzy100]

Blanche was superb. Could have ran the whole show on her own

[@Da1Dez]

Blanche was the blunt woman with a big heart.

[@Sawrattan]

I've never seen these clips on KZbin before, this was amazing 😂 And imagine Blanche and Norris working together in the Cabin.

[@mattip8528]

AA meeting will always be the best 4 me

[@beverlygannon4141]

Yes. I howled at that. So so funny. Love the it❤️

[@mikelimmer7619]

Blanche was a absaloute legend sadly missed from corrie

[@matthewhalloran5445]

I love Blanche she so funny in every sense

[@christopherhannaford6348]

Towards the end Rita laughs loud and hard. That wasn't acting that was real. Everything this character did was comedy gold.

[@abbieroseholden4174]

Fantastic actress and character ❤❤❤

[@julz3tt3]

Savage reads and natural delivery everytime. A character that will be missed forever

[@Brogan_Balfour_Crescent]

Blanche really did love Ken (she knew he was Deirdre's best option) that's what made their back and fourths so impactful for me 😂

[@CouncilOfWolves]

Good old Blanche. Always right, even when she was wrong.

[@matthewhalloran5445]

Blanch is so good at putting people in There place

[@kaysmith8992]

This was an amazing compilation.

[@smeterpith7840]

Thanks so much for doing this, been waiting since 2010 for someone to start compiling the legend that was blanche

[@TheTalkoftheStreetPodcast]

There’s a 2000 collection on the channel too if you haven’t seen it already!

*"Just as well we don't know what the future holds, or we'd all be on medication"* . ~Blanche Hunt😂 So true, Blanche. So true! 😂

[@kaysmith8992]

The intro music surprisingly suits Blanche more than any other Corrie character.

[@julz3tt3]

It's so fitting for a savage like Blanche.

[@beverlygannon4141]

Absolutely brilliant 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️🙏

[@friskoff2]

Legend 😄

Some halfwit hussy 🤣 Blanche has the best lines.

[@matthewhalloran5445]

I Love The Senes with Rita and Blanch in The Kabin she tells it how it is

Thank you for this

[@matthewhalloran5438]

I love Blanch and Rita in the Cabin together They where so funny

[@clarkpatient7950]

It's interesting watching this, it feels like they hadn't quite figured out Blanche's personality, it wasnt nearly as strong as in later years

[@connorwatson7823]

Blanch is so hillariours

Ironic when you consider that Rita has outlived almost everyone apart from Sally in that scene!

That scene will never be forgotten

She reminds me so much of the nosy, old neighbours around. So blunt & no filter & beating around the bush!

[@collistooth8314]

"Hard faced doesn't come into it!!'... Relish the Blanche and Emily scenes... Iconic that Blanche is the only character that can dare rattle the saintly pillars of the Street, Emily and Rita... ...and later even Saint Betty. Timeless...

[@odettewiddicombe4583]

Her glasses god show big

[@Dan-ct5zl]

Haha Mother by Danzig fits this perfectly as an intro.

[@julz3tt3]

Maudlin st

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

An example of gas lighting. There is a theme of older men in soaps with long work histories, getting jobs for minimum wage in supermarkets. I've noticed this in a couple of different programmes - the same theme and tackled in the same way. The blokes tend to view this as honest work, whilst their mother in law might view this work as undignified. The women are characterised in this instance as old fashioned and out of touch - especially in terms of being sensitive to the needs of older men. These needs are seen as unnecessary and even elitist. Seems to me this is propaganda to slowly introduce the notion that our western economies are now primarily service orientated, that jobs will be harder to come by and also that older workers are no different from younger workers in their employment and should not be treated with any additional respect based on their accomplishments. In other words a dystopian socialist future awaits (or is really already here).

[@user-kl4bh4lq6r]

What???

[@DarylDevine]

What's socialist about any of that ?
