Audrey was so critical of Alf being frugal. Yet he was always so considerate towards her. She often seemed quite ungrateful.

[@jstewart3517]

Audrey got what she deserved when Alf died . He got the last 😃 did my ♥️ good

[@londonlady227]

Yes, he didn't leave her much at all. She took up hairdressing to make money.

[@kryzondaan1855]

It makes me stressed just watching it, the idea that you constantly have to be watching what your spouse is spending because if you don't you, they are going to fritter away a huge chunk of what you've grafted for many years for.

[@howiseeit5129]

She came with nothing and never stopped spending Alf's money..and complained and moaned if he did not support the spendthrift, reckless, self absorbed lifestyle she treated herself to 😂

[@eivissalyn655]

I am not against plastic surgery at all, especially when I look in the mirror ;-) but Ivy's face has sadly definitely not changed for the better. She looks very strange.

who else is here to remind themselves of how Ivy's lips looked after her surgery she had all of a sudden, i remember as a kid watching it with my parents and my mum shouted oh my god whats wrong with ivy's lips! hahahaha

[@HelloImNik]

yep, I remember shouting at the screen myself 😂

[@SuzyQ334]

Jack and Vera are the last of Corrie's brilliant comedy double acts IMHO. I loved Stan and Hilda but Jack & Vera are a wonderful substitute. And I love the comedy "conflict" between Phyllis and Percy, a miserable old git living in the past and fibbing about how he defeated Hi**er single-handed (from the catering corp, natch) and a wily, funny, over-sharing old woman who fancies Percy. I grew up in Portsmouth. The place was full of real life Percy Sugden's when I was a kid. Thanks for these fabulous uploads - from when Corrie had believable characters and storylines and so much humour. x

[@ginagina9720]

I think Derek as finally lost his marbels lol 😂 thank you 🙏 for the upload

I remember Raquel's modelling partner vividly as a child, he was on ITV's camp 1980's northern romp 'Brass', as a small boy I got quite hot under the collar.... the feeling hasn't changed ;-).

[@carasmith549]

@Lee Jones - To me, Vicky had the right sort of cool aloofness an upper-middle-class privately-educated girl may well have in a working-class environment. It isn't particularly appealing , nor does it make her likable, but it's almost to be expected. She looks and behaves like someone who is uncomfortable and doesn't really fit in, nor ever will.

[@ThatMattOne]

Derek's drunken tirade to Mavis was absolutely hilarious.

[@H3len50]

I have to say I can't stand Maureen's character...she is so frantic and all over the place, a bundle of nerves.

[@nicolasudjum8077]

I like Maureen lol ..I like Don Brenan

[@bibakroll8999]

I don't know which I dislike most - her or Reg.

[@thebadtemperedbrit]

The last episode of this month at around 4:19:30 is where Lynne/ Ivy's troubles on the show really start, if you believe that bosses were angry with her appearance changes. She may have had very minor things done previously, but now her injections are very noticeable & it's not gone well, she looks like she's been punched in the face; I think I have a vague memory of this at the time & we all said to each other "what's wrong with Ivy's face?!" Look out for long 2 shots, shots from behind her & off to the side as the cameramen mitigate the horror ;-)

[@EveHenleySpread]

It went badly wrong from what I can gather, much to Lynne’s horror.. she was getting called “Fish Face” in the street apparently!

[@londonlady227]

The lips were final straw for the producers.

[@MosesDeLaRoses]

I'd say she'd more or less been written out already by this point. I know she was an absolute swine for drink and pills, and the plastic surgery was the straw that broke the camels back

[@olgagarcia5710]

Poor Ivy those doctors did a bad job on her!

[@booth2710]

I always wondered if it was a bit more than just the face lift and if it had anything to do with her drinking. I found her slurring speech gradually getting worse and worse to the point where I found her very hard to understrand. And we all know that after she left the street in all her tv appearances she was pissed.

[@lawrencejhutchinson]

Ken's age has always been a subject for discussion. When Coronation Street started in 1960, he was a 21 year old played by a 28 year old actor. Here he's a 55 year old played by a 62 year old actor.

[@MarcoNegrisEye]

I'd say he does get away with mid 50s here though. Don't know why he still bothers with the rancid heap of refuse it has become though. Or maybe he doesn't. I'll need to check that 😂

[@briangatt2956]

Ivy's slow transition to The Mekon of Mekonta is almost complete.

[@daveontoast]

It would be the final year, I would watch Coronation Street because I joined the army in December 1994 and left England for a very long time. If I ever caught it on a TV network, "it was big in Canada when I was there," I'd watch it and think of home. I had a t-shirt with Reg's face on the front with the slogan "knowledge is power." Everyone was baffled with it. Lol😂

[@lucyjane103]

The women in this episode look like they went to a Poodle hair trimmer.....

[@EveHenleySpread]

34:02 you have to laugh at the blatant non-PC fat shaming by Audrey over Vivian Barford (later to star as Emmerdale’s Betty Eagleton)… she just wouldn’t get away with this in this woke era we’re living through 2021!

[@paulacookgomez1046]

Normally I am against all the PC censorship that goes on today. However I still believe that sensitivity to people's feelings is important. I have to admit that Audrey's comments about Vivian upset me a bit as a plus sized person. Whenever I visited family in the UK during the late 70s and 80s I experienced many jokes from family about my "curves"... Not so much in the USA.

[@H3len50]

I think Audrey can be a very cruel , selfish and judgemental woman at times. She seems to be so flighty and it is always all about her, until something happens to Alf, She then has some realisation and then goes back to her usual selfish self. I do struggle to like her. It is not the first time she has made comments about someone's weight. In this "woke era" it would not fly but to be honest I have always thought it a horrible thing to do to talk about someone's weight.

[@H3len50]

@@paulacookgomez1046 , I do as well. It is a horrible damaging thing to joke about. I have been pretty average all my life but I lost a lot of my mobility due to a medical condition so the walking I did stopped. My meds make it difficult to lose weight and I have been left with Long Covid as well. I went to my nieces wedding and I had gained some weight but I wore a beautiful 1950's dress. it was also my first outing with my walking stick so I felt very self conscious. I thought I looked okay but my sister in law came round for a few drinks one night and remarked at how much weight I had gained and how fat I was. I was horrified and cut to the core. I am still struggling with my weight and her words are still there. It hurts.

[@adamrj7286]

i know its a shame the world has to go crazy over being PC... shame....

[@MissMarie1377]

@@H3len50 horrible and damaging? Being fat is actually damaging. It’s unhealthy and it looks funny. Jokes will be made. Get over it. Weak as well as fat…..not a great combination.

[@dommidavros2211]

I don't think she had plastic surgery but yeah apparently her drinking was a big problem! Rumour has it that she even died young as a result but I'm hoping she's still alive 😔

[@H3len50]

@@dommidavros2211 , she had a bit of plastic surgery but when she got her lips done without telling the bosses of the show, they were not amused. There was no hiding it at that point. Probably the drinking did not help either but after 23 years she was sacked. She died at 77 in 2006.

It's crazy, no one in the street has any money but yet they own their own houses, ahahah the old days

[@staceygrove5976]

Terraced houses, like those on the odd-numbered side of the Street, only cost about £12,000-£18,000 in the mid to late 1980s. In Oldham I remember old terraced houses in habitable condition selling for £1000-£1500 in the early 1970s.

[@deborahwatson2730]

The way Liz carries on about her age preventing her from getting a job is ridiculous to say the least, she can’t be more than 35/36, even in the nineties that wasn’t an issue as far as I’m aware, I’m an office worker and I never had any issue then.

[@bsaunders5271]

I find Jim to be thoroughly unpleasant in every possible way. And Liz sticking up for him, when he is basically a wife beater in waiting, makes me sick. It's not the brewery's fault she lost her job, it's their fault, Jim's fault for hitting Richard, Liz's fault for breaking the brewery's rule by letting Jim back inside. They've got a proper nerve thinking about suing them. Liz should've been sacked as soon as Jim showed his true colours, it was obvious she would stick by him because she is weak and deluded. I'm gonna skip their scenes from now on to prevent my blood from boiling!

[@SuzyQ334]

Agree. Sadly, the real world is full of Jim McDonalds. Their self-centred anger issues scare and eventually drive away partners and kids and of course it's never their own fault. In Liz's shoes I would have stuck with the job she loved and told her bullying, self-pitying husband to bu**er off. Steve & Andy would have got over it.

[@leejones8582]

Vicky could not act for toffee.

[@thebadtemperedbrit]

I think that's a little harsh, I find her quite naturalistic as Corrie goes & don't forget she's sort of a legacy actor, in that she started as a child on the show, but is still there as she's gotten older, so you never really know whether a child can act or not. The only bad actor on the show at the moment is Bet's Charlie, very odd casting, I can see the visual appeal but I can barely hear a word!

[@EveHenleySpread]

And yet didn’t the actor who played Charlie go on to have a career in the USA? Slightly surprising, perhaps that was a visual thing too. I agree Vicky is quite good, it’s Dawn Acton as Tracy I can’t stand, she reads the lines out as if it’s the first time she’s seen them, never made the grade from child to adult actress!
