Coronation Street - December 1995

[@adrianmole7431]

Audrey Roberts has got to be the most self-centred entitled women in 63 years of Coronation Street.

[@paullynton-green6570]

I totally agree. She is a gold digger. Poor old alf long gone and she's still here.no justice is there.

[@iamtheeggman1986]

I've never liked her character

[@noeljr.7724]

I'm sad that Reg isn't there anymore. He was a great comedy character with his mannerisms.

[@915madness]

Alf Roberts was a great character

[@normasouthwood3182]

Oh that's the greatest pleasure ever...Audraaaas losing out on going to the palace! Wonderful I loved it! It must have taken much work with Palace security to film those scenes. Worth every penny! Hateful character!

[@MosesDeLaRoses]

Agreed. Alf slaved his Jackson Pollocks off in that shop, and all Audrey did was make fun of his weight

[@paullynton-green6570]

Gold digger.

[@marilynjones6111]

Don’t mean to be an old poop, but loved seeing Audrey get what was coming to her. She has a gob that never shuts up. 😃😃

[@paullynton-green6570]

So we'll said.horrible women.

it was so love-LAY to see Aud-DRAY miss out on the best DAY of her life because of her never ending big mouth! she is situational-LAY unaware. attacking Don while in HIS cab was the perfect WAY for her comeuppance to happen. and for Betty to be there and by Al-FAY's big DAY was the best WAY for it to happen!

[@joycebursey2183]

Thank you again for all the episodes.

[@belindastreet135]

It’s just so weird to me… because I was 6 in 1995, I can’t remember much of my life as a 6 year old but I remember most of these episodes

[@itallia666]

Its worse to remember when you were 7yrs old in 1960 & saw the very first episode of Corrie! This was me! When i found ep 1 of Corrie just recently i watched it & i couldnt believe i remembered quite a bit of that first episode! My memory has always been 1st class but that far back? I was flabbergasted to say the least! There are some great Corries in black & white eps incl number 1 From Auntie Corrie/2 Cheers 🇬🇧👧

[@carasmith549]

1:51:54 - I felt so sorry for Raquel rushing into marrying Curly mainly to feel 'safe' and get away from Des, who she was obviously still in love with. Yes, the marriage put Des in his place and sent out a very strong 'you can't use me anymore' message, but it was a bad decision all round, because Curly was madly in love with Raquel but knew all along she wasn't (with him), so both entered married life with a sinking heart. Des would always bounce back, as his heart was never really in it with anyone, so if Raquel's intention was to find safety and security for herself (she did temporarily) and punish Des at the same time, it was bound to fail, and it did.

[@rickyodriscoll9729]

Hilarious 😆 I love the old episodes you can’t beat it

[@Alan-ss3xp]

Humour is healthier than watching people shouting and arguing.

[@carasmith549]

I can't understand Rita's attitude towards the money she gifted Kevin and Sally. It's as if she (Rita) still wanted control of the money and a say in how it was spent. Controlling behaviour that was very unbecoming. Mostly I liked Rita a lot, but this was not a good side to her.

[@shylinh5939]

Rita was lonely and dissatisfied with her life. She didn't get the family she wanted, her foster daughters disappointed her and, aside from Mavis, she didn't really have anyone in her life. The money to the Websters was more of a purchase than a gift, she wanted their time and a place in their lives. That they loaned or gave some of the money to Bill, who was a member of the family, reminded her that she wasn't. With her illusion ruined she was overcome with the pain of what she saw as rejection, etc. Poor Rita, but she wasn't always that nice, she bullied Mavis for what seemed like her own amusement sometimes, especially in earlier episodes. And she dealt with the matter of deciding not to go ahead with the deal Bet proposed over the Rovers very badly.

[@eivissalyn655]

And Rita had previously said it was theirs to do want they wanted with!

[@forrestcollective9184]

Rita has always munipulated and tried to control people with her money, and the status she thinks it buys.

[@paulettejadowski4170]

Good one sally,hit the nail on the head.Rita character comes across as caring,Ebenezia Scrooge, money can buy you love.

[@dementednun1175]

I love Audrey when, she is getting drunk and partying she actually it's very good at it and it suits the character

[@youtuber2021]

Never thought I'd see a funny side to Norris 😅

[@normasouthwood3182]

Rita was bang out of order with Kevin and Sally!

[@helenwebb8881]

Rita said the money was there to spend on what ever they wanted

[@williamjhughes9460]

4•58 Raquel's mum was Ashley's mum in the London Weekend Television Comedy Series The Two Of Us with Nicolas Lindhurst and Janet Dibley 📺

[@carasmith549]

1:18:51 - Prelude to The Big Fight: Rita vs. Sally. Rita rarely annoyed me, I really liked her, but in this situation she let herself down by being a gigantic hypocrite. Back in March 1994, when Rita gave Kevin and Sally £5,000 she said the words, "no strings attached - the only motivation is friendship." Fast-forward a year and a half, and Rita is suddenly mortally offended that Kevin is using the money for something Rita didn't get asked for her approval of, and does not agree with! You said, "no strings attached!", Rita! Sally was right on the money this time, no pun intended.

[@jamesbm971]

Steve's constant biting his fingernails is sickening. Poor Vickie, I could not imagine having my home filled with coppers on Christmas Day.

[@sandyhampton122]

Vickie had to have him so she shouldn't have been surprised. Audrey is awful. Alf deserved better. So did Mavis. Derek was so rude and selfish.

[@howiseeit5129]

When you give people a present even if it's money you don't keep strings attached. Rita gave to buy her way into the family and expected eternally to be their priority. But it's a burden then having to make sure she is always happy with everything you do.

[@bigregful]

I am never quite sure why Denise and Des didn't get together.They are both insanely self centred whilst playing the vulnerable card.ultimately they do what they want and little do other lives matter.

[@Chillmax]

Just saw the Cruise VHS special & whilst I'm very glad I did & it made a change, I didn't think it was that great & was somewhat of a wasted opportunity. It just seemed slightly lacking, perhaps not enough cast members & not funny enough, Vera would've cheered it up I think, making a nuisance of herself & pretending to be posh & annoying the captain or the like.

[@EveHenleySpread]

I saw it myself for the first time a couple of months back. I agree, a bit of a damp squib. Almost a bit slapstick but not very funny - I mean as if Raquel and Curly would accept having to work on their honeymoon. They’d have made Alec walk the plank for getting them such a rotten deal lol!

[@Chillmax]

@@EveHenleySpread lol 😁👍. After I'd watched it, over a few days, I wasn't even sure they were actually at sea, until I saw the mini behind the scenes doc, so that was very unused for me. Also,as the kids say, I'd call it a cash grab, and it should've been on TV as normal episodes, my Granny certainly won't have seen this.

[@EveHenleySpread]

Well apparently they showed it on TV not too long after it was declared “straight to video” so those who forked out for it felt a little cheated! 🙈

[@martinsteve]

@@EveHenleySpread I was one of those people who bought the VHS tape. There was quite a bit of controversy at the time about it being shown on TV so soon after the release of the video and so they “compensated” us with a free Corrie book. The problem was that true fans like me already had the book. I got my free one anyway and gave it away to a friend 😝

[@zanducktv2398]

I remember the predictable headlines about it - CON A NATION STREET etc! It was fun but a bit self indulgent and once you’d watched it once, I don’t think you’d be too fussed about viewing it again. I think Granada realised they were onto a money spinner though cos they went on to release further spin offs. The Las Vegas one with Jack, Vera, Fiona and Maxine was pointless, and wasn’t there one called A Knight’s Tale. Same with Bev Callard’s fitness vids, kinda takes away the credibility of their characters. I’ve seen snippets of Lynne Perrie’s alternative workout one too, so much cringe! 🤦‍♂️ 🙄

Whenever he talks he accompanies his speech with facial twitches, grimaces, ticks, Gurns, twisting, it looks as if he is suffering from St Vitus Dance!! Is it his character or is Simon Gregson on something? He didnt behave like this before, Only when he started betting on the GeeGees & Casinos, making pots of dosh just like his hero Mike Baldwin, who Steve tries to emulate but doesnt have the Push, drive & determination & gaul with charm, Steve is too wet behind the ears!
