Coronation Street - September 1983

[@nandsall9492]

Baldwin and yeates ..two rogues with a heart of gold...two of the best characters on the street

[@joeblogs-vx4ep]

Baldwin never had a heart of gold

[@barbarapalmer8224]

Yates is lovely

[@christinefougere]

These old episodes are the best of Coronation Street.

[@lorraineydays57]

Ivy talking to Betty about Brian and Gail, " I don't like interfering " has got to be the understatement of the Soap World.

[@elterrifico9522]

Love these classic episodes. Stan and Hilda at the restaurant was very touching. Today’s episodes are a mere shadow of these

[@lindarowe8550]

Absolutely spot on

[@mattburke3457]

Was beautiful

[@francesgillotti1378]

I stopped at 1999 . And I’ve watched the whole series every time I’m sick . I miss it so much as it was very comforting to me 😢

[@elizabethsavage9108]

Adore Stan and Hilda , brilliant duo .so funny 😄 Hilda sharp wit is excellent

[@mattburke3457]

Omg mike and Deidre dancing to yesterday made me cry... How poetic❤️

[@cherylreid-panasiewicz6485]

They had really great chemistry together. I kinda wish she wound up with Mike.

[@trae7302]

Thanks once more for all you hard work. you have given me great entertainment while I have been stuck at home.

[@caroldanzer3621]

So great - cold rainy day and classic coronation st - thanks for this.

[@shylinh5939]

A brilliant and very funny exchange between Bet and Fred. Fred: "I've done something nasty to me shoulder as well you know." Bet: "Nature beat you to it, Fred, she did something nasty to the lot of you." The writing and performances were truly exceptional.

[@stevenhighams4190]

It's a wonder Fred Feast didn't end up with some sort of complex after all the insults levelled at Fred Gee over the years.

[@kellyscourfield77]

I love Eddie such a lovely character and so much humour a true natural

[@ddrose06]

Would you flaming credit it?! Brian walks in the door, after a long hard day, trying to build a business. Gail's there with a long face, moaning about his coming in late. Putting the boot in. The very next morning she's at the garage, lecturing Brian about what it takes to build a business!

[@annmc8392]

It's the high pitched voice 😬

[@irenemorley75]

I know right, now they are moving in with Ivy he will have two moaning hags on his case🙄🤮🤮

[@MyChristine6]

That is the reality of women's behavior.

[@rthompson7282]

[@sunnyshine2215]

Loved Stan and Hilda at the restaurant 😊

[@elizabethsavage9108]

So funny the sketch with Stan sat down in the corner shop and Hilda comes in ? I’ve never heard of a window cleaner that can’t climb ladders 😂😂😂😂😂 hilarious. Just love those 2 x

[@M123OCT]

The fact that the comments discuss these fictional characters as if they were real shows the power of quality writing. This period of Coronation Street is an absolute joy to revisit, a wonderful glimpse into a world without internet, anxiety, political correctness, woke bullshit, trans nonsense, road rage, snowflakes and the million other things that make TV, and life in general, in 2023 a f*cking misery.

[@joshirley2308]

Well said 👍

[@olgagarcia5710]

Well said!

[@paulwatson525]

Spot on well said

[@cavanman06]

totally agree.

[@MsArrowroot]

It also shows the quality of the acting too.

[@joannegreaves1310]

I had a massive crush on Nigel Pivaro back in the day, he was gorgeous. Sadly, the years haven't been kind to him though.

[@happyjenny68]

Omg Bet makes me laugh! 😂😂 love her!

[@itallia666]

Oh The Duckworths! 😆😆 Jack is so funny! Seeing him Walk into the room in his PJs With the buttons done up wrong Like a 5yr old... Good old Vince La Fontaine & Carole Monroe.... 😆😆😆 They are a breath of fresh air Plus they make Stan & Hilda positively genteel & noble! I wish fat face fred had been trapped in the back of the removal van & sent up to The Orkney Islands ( no offence to the Orkneans) Its a beautiful place & visitors are made so welcome! D'ya know, when you get down to It, dear old Mike Baldwin, really does have a heart of gold despite its enamel coating! Ivy doesnt suit dark hair at all Esp steeped in grief over " our Bert " makes her look washed out, bring back her Blondie locks It was awful seeing Peter Dudley ( Bert) lying in hospital & actually knowing he was so ill, in reality 🤒🤕 Like many Corrie fans, i also noticed Berts eye before he had his accident & i commend actor Peter for his fantastically brave Determination in acting out & combining his illness around the scriptwriters story line, i admit to having a good cry seeing him & Hes still missed to this day! Really LOVING these episodes Its PURE entertainment & im So appreciative of Professional Gun 66 for his hard work bringing as many episodes as possible 10 out of 10 ✔❤ Thank You 🇬🇧👧

[@irenemorley75]

Didn't he once call himself Vince Sinclair🤭

That's nothing to what David calls her now🤣🤣🤣🤭

[@sherylbarker9465]

That was so nasty of Rita trying to embarrass Mavis about Mrs Pendalbury, turns out Rita it was Len playing away

[@itallia666]

Im sure the seascape on the Tilsleys wall is a mini version of Stan & Hildas wall Murial! Someone in " Set Dressing" has a good sense of humour! I never noticed when i origionally watched these episodes, what a good looking guy Terry Duckworth ( Nigel Pivarro) was! A bad lad though ! Wonder what he looks like today? Cheers 🇬🇧👧

[@HelloImNik]

Hilda saying there'll be days soon when we won't have any cash in our pockets at all and how right she was!!

[@youtubehatesus2651]

I love Stan and Hilda's dinner out. Stan is an old fox. Hilda was so pleased. (love)

[@annmc8392]

Fred thought he was on a promise😄it would be a cold day in hell.😂 Forgotten how good looking Terry Duckworth was when he was younger, but then weren't we all😃 Ivy the mother in law from hell👹 Stan and Hilda😙 R Chuck.❤

[@connielincoln8681]

Ty so much for uploading these episodes great fan from NZ here ❤

[@thehealthjunkie8996]

where did Elsie go to in these episodes?

[@soniaclarkstewart]

Terry was quite fit in those days.

[@irenemorley75]

Yes in the 80s Terry and Kevin visited my local pub ( The Green Man) in Derby, the girls were going crazy for them🤣🤗Bless.

[@mistofoles]

Now I wonder what restaurant it was that Stan and Hilda were at ? The waiter was probably an actor, but you can tell by the format of the film it's a real location as opposed to the studio.

[@johnjohnston9917]

Love watching these classic coronation Street episodes . I was 12 at the time and had a crush on Shirley back in the day

1:22:43 and a snippet of Ronnie James Dio.

Hilda suits that fur coat, it's easy to see she is actually a classy person in real life ❤

[@Chillmax]

God Terry looks lovely here, such a shame he couldn't hold on to it, time & life is so cruel!

[@neilhedges41]

Duckworth's house warming off to a great start with blasting out Holy Diver by Dio. There's an episode earlier on than this when Hilda starts working for the Lowther's. She mentions Mrs Lowther has paraquat flooring 😂😂

[@alexanderjones9572]

Mavis’s suggestion to Eddie about wearing masks like surgeons- bit prophetic! Of course none of them knew what 2020’d bring, but...

Not exactly "where it's at" the Graffiti Club is it? Even for 1983 I'm sure the nightlife venues must have been a bit more colourful and jumping than that beige bore 😂

[@bibakroll8999]

Yes, they were. As I've said before, Corrie was woefully behind the times in many respects. (I still love watching these old episodes though.)

[@MarcoNegrisEye]

@@bibakroll8999 thank god eh? Just imagine it was full of the rainbow tinted wokery dopery everything is now!?

[@alimo1611]

definitely. It was MADchester time (Hascienda etc). The graffiti club was full of OAP's

Hilda mentions a cashless society ....

[@bsaunders5271]

Originally, Gail was sickly sweet. And in a couple of years' time she will be angry, sullen, spiteful and selfish.... but at the moment, she is in her NAG NAG NAG phase, which may just be the worst of them all. Give it a rest love.

Ken “He prefers to work with people-editors-as partners rather than employees.” Deirdre “I see-he wants to marry you.” Imagine if Blanche had been there!

The receptionist at the Graffiti Club in the first scene was the stripper at Fred’s stag do!

[@roderickscott7429]

sugar la marr ?

[@maxb28]

There was a GREAT scene when she was the stripper! She was talking to Bet about taken home by a guy (from a show) because her husband was on nights. Then she said something like “I don’t know who you think I am but I don’t take my clothes for all and sundry!” I just loved this brilliant and witty script writing. 😅
