Coronation Street - Rita and Cilla argument in the Rovers 19/01/04

[@entertainmentgamesunlimite8434]

Rita deserves my full respect for what she said to Cilla,good on you woman!

[@EC2019]

God I remember this scene. "With your no-win-no-fee ambulance-chasing lawyer." That phrase stuck in my memory all this time. Amazing to randomly find it again.

[@sarahmcdonnell3389]

Cilla goes after Rita.😭😣

[@tweet86]

Double brandy for mrs Sullivan 😂

[@mitchellhurd8958]

You did the right thing there Rita, putting Cilla in her place 🙂👍!!!!!

[@chrispaw1]

No

[@sarahmcdonnell3389]

Cilla is evil.

@@sarahmcdonnell3389 And to me one of the *greatest* characters to set foot in that street. Aside from Richard Hillman. The late nineties/early noughties showed that Corrie could still make really great Panto villains/villainesses that could *really* grip audiences and even headlines. I can still remember the "Evil Cilla" headlines regularly being in the most red papers at pages 3, 4 or 1 at the time, along with making news in more serious papers like the Daily Telegraph, Mail etc. (2004). *NO WAY* would this ever happen now. Beside, soaps in general had their heyday for a *good* 15 years anyway.

[@russellthompson9271]

Ahh, this is great acting from Barbara Knox.

[@wackyraces01]

Fantastic acting from Barbara Knox 😊

[@TOTRAVEL-f3c]

What a speech!

[@bryanfranks]

Bloody fantastic. Weren't you just shouting 'Yes Rita, Go on!!!' I liked Fred's reaction to it all. You can tell he had a lot of sympathy for Rita and was on her side really and let her demolish Cilla. Bit pissed off with Audrey though, when she condems Rita for 'not rising above it' Why the hell should she???!!! She gave that trailer trash exactly what she deserved.

[@albiegraydean3581]

Spot on, Bryan. Rita put that rubbish in the rubbish bin where she belonged.

[@bryanfranks]

@@albiegraydean3581 Cheers Albie. One of my fave scenes..

[@albiegraydean3581]

Same here, mate. Shows how strong our Rita is, and how worthless Cilla is.

[@SuperTed19021]

Me : *Get in!*

[@rhondamcclements356]

I agree

[@mortifiedGAP]

Fantastic scene! thanks so much for the upload

[@zanducktv2398]

Worrying to think there are people who pull these kind of stunts in real life. Great lines for Wendi and Barbara in a scene they could really get their teeth into. Les was a good character, but I don’t think Bruce was that good an actor.

[@michaelpeacock9420]

Cilla was a free loading scrubber

[@nicholaswright3773]

Wow great acting bloody love corrie. Go Rita!!

[@darrensmall5548]

Wow Barbara Knox what a power house performance

[@exacttime4458]

Cilla is a monster

[@albiegraydean3581]

Rita said it best, Cilla is the lowest of the low.

[@SuperTed19021]

Her actress (Wendi Peters) actually *deserves* an OBE into how she did her role. One of Corrie's *greatest* panto villainesses! 😁💕

[@hannahgoodchild5255]

Pls air more of this storyline

[@SarahPlattFanx]

I will try it just takes alot of my time

[@lizzylizzylizzy5438]

Go Rita

[@samoscroft6240]

i love the start of the video

[@chrisbirks3135]

Haha! Burst out laughing at that part 🤣

[@dominewimbury2039]

Anyone's better than you Cilla! 😂

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Well done Rita.

[@maxwelljohnson5028]

I love Barbra Knox you did the right thing to Cilla

[@SuperTed19021]

I *still* wonder how her real-life day or two in court went? Same goes and still goes on for Bill Roache.

[@lloyddenvermckay1410]

Rita vs Cilla! 😂

Go on Rita!

[@alidavidson2684]

Cila Batersby Brown was a total buffon

[@rixsist7048]

Cilla was iconic! Loved her!!

[@DEC19775]

Cila could cause a argument I empty house

[@eddpower5425]

Oh, she's as common as muck 😂😂😂.

[@hastingsgal]

Brilliant!!! 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼

[@kalanshwani4515]

Cillas a chav

[@SuperTed19021]

A *real* example of the Tony Blair/New Labour Era. The *rise and rise* of the Chav. PS: It was *completely* different to the true working-class social spectrum.

[@siredith8846]

Goin-t-Rovers.

[@KuchiKopi179]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@SuperTed19021]

Norris sounds *just* like Wallace and Cilla sounds *just* like Piella ("A Matter of Loaf and Death").

[@EC2019]

Actually guess what. The actress playing Shelley was the voice of Piella.

I felt sorry for Rita she is not going to prison

[@harryclements4710]

Rita be nice friend

[@SuperTed19021]

At the *real least* Rita here *rightfully* ranted and raved about the British "Chav" culture/movement of the time, which flourished so much under Blair's New Labour government. 👏A *real* difference between that and the *true* working-class social ladder.

[@TheNzfroggy]

Now that Wendi is leaving Doctors she needs to come back to the cobbles. We need some decent bitches back! Bring back Janice and Cilia!!

[@alidavidson2684]
