The Ogdens of 13 Coronation Street years gone by

ENJOY ALL

[@lesallison9047]

" What's that lipstick taste of ?" "Woman Stanley, woman" Those were the days my friends.

[@chrisblester37]

I found the Ogdens and Eddie Yates so funny as a kid I remember as a kid laughing hard at there antics. Miss Ogden reminds me of a plucked Chicken, I do wish she had done a few more years on coronation street the show was never the same with out her and her family

[@Uksoapfan]

Stan Ogden's glasses could act better than most of today's Corrie cast. Stan and Hilda were great.

[@JohnJohnson-tw8qk]

I agree with you there

[@reeshdelareesh6406]

Absolutely

[@kuchikopi4631]

So true.

[@chriswillcocks2578]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Beautifully said

[@lizzieallen2284]

A brilliant actress & a gracious lady. In 1981 I wrote her a fan letter & I still treasure the kind letter she sent me...& the signed photo of Hilda in her rollers!

[@msshortbread1]

Hilda Ogden, wonderful character played brilliantly by Jean Alexander. Loved watching this and fantastically put together, Thank you. Coronation Street was never the same without her. Complete tripe now.

[@ameenyousaf2839]

The absolute best of the best..Hilda and Stan..the heart and soul of the street. Witty fun and extreme talent at its core. The golden era supported with the legendary goodness of Stan and Hilda.. still making us all laugh and treasure their humble yet unmatched talent of bygone years. RIP to the talent twosome. We will always miss you but never forget you. Britain at its best soap era.

[@europa2000man]

The old Coronation Streets were so much better compared to the misery they have on now. Two episodes of high quality entertainment a week was far superior than is it five or six episodes of depressing misery. Stan and Hilda Ogden were probably one of the best couples on Coronation Street. They would make you laugh half the time, Stan with his stupidity and Hilda with her singing. They would lighten up your day. May they both Rest In Peace.

[@jasonclarke6983]

totaly agree mike baldwin jack and vera my favs

[@RosieWoolf]

Jean Alexander was absolutely fantastic at every word and mannerism. Her physical presence was perfect. For me she had everything. The very beating heart of Coronation Street. Thank you for everything.

[@perniesweemmer51]

Thankyou!!! There will never be another Jean Alexander and her triumph... Hilda Ogden. This was a joy to watch...absolute gold 🥇 🥇 🥇

[@Lee-sv8su]

Pat Phoenix was the Elizabeth Taylor of the back streets of Salford!!! I remember the seance scene !!

[@SamM-oh2cx]

When television and the world was a much better place!

[@davidleavy2016]

Yes I agree 100%

[@karldelavigne8134]

I can say without fear of contraception that Hilda was hilarious.

[@Mark64W]

Brilliant Karl !! Just brilliant .

[@corriearcade60]

I can say without contraception that you are right

[@timothyking2248]

Chocolate mouse !!

[@minekara6407]

The brilliant Stan and Hilda. They paved the way for Vera and Jack. Watching this made me realise how great Corrie was back then. I haven't watched it for more than 10 years.

[@PussnBoot2516]

Wouldn't be a good idea to start watching right now, Coronation Street is woeful at the moment. These were the golden years.

[@MJ69ism]

Don’t they (Hilda and Stan) give you a warm feeling like their your parents I’d feel so safe with them, please say if you agree ☺️👍🏽

[@theresapierce3934]

These days Coronation Street isn't fit to bear the name. It's over the top and crap.

[@janettetaylor4891]

Hilda was unique.

[@swaggerjagg22]

Stan and Hilda fought alot but always stuck together its brilliant love and acting

[@gordontaylor5373]

So did Vera and Jack.

[@soniaclarkstewart]

Yeah, you could hear him hitting her after he dragged her out the Rovers and nobody did anything.

[@roddersfiftynine]

1:31:42 Gets me every time. Great acting by a wonderful actress. May she rest in peace.

[@jackkeable5215]

Stan and Hilda are still very well remembered because they are One of Soaps best couples and I think they were a hilarious couple in the 90s and I wish they would still show couples like that today and characters like that as well today.

[@pedanticradiator1491]

80s not 90s

[@jackkeable5215]

@@pedanticradiator1491 shut up that’s what I was meant to say the 80s

[@olimamma7483]

It was a lovely treat at the end with Hilda and Betty, Id never seen it before, Absolute legends the pair of them, Gone but never forgotten x x x

[@anthonypoole6417]

Hilda and Betty was on The women of Coronation St, my mum still has it on VHS ☺

[@lawrencejhutchinson]

Betty auditioned for the role of Hilda in 1964. She got down to the final two. Then she entered the street as a barmaid in 1969.

[@theveryfirst]

We love you Hilda. Wonderful actress. Sorely missed.

[@anthonypoole6417]

Ha, Hilda calling Albert Tatlock an old aged yobo, 😂

[@mohammaddavoudian7897]

Hilda, Stan and Eddie were the Golden Triangle of Corrie. Love Hilda.

[@Arcradia]

Loved the Ogden's Hilda"s Singing 16:31

[@WickerMan73]

When stan staring at the locked door, hilda says what you doing hypnotising it 🤣🤣

[@davidstewart9665]

Stan + Hilda = Comedy Gold SINCE 1964

[@buzzukfiftythree]

The Ogdens were the glory days of Corrie. It just hasn't been the same since Hilda left the street. I just cannot watch it now - not a patch on what it used to be.

[@peterhigginsson9875]

Wow. Buy a house for £575. Many pay that n more in rent now... 😭

[@th8257]

£575 in 1964 money is the equivalent of around £12,000 in 2020 money. Still an indication of just how much property has gone up in value. Even so, most working class people still rented in those days

[@deniscahalane1224]

How brilliant Hilda was

[@jo-penford]

I began watching as a 5 yr old... Loved these characters over the years. I remember them all. I wish they wrote soaps like this these days but they don't seem to. The Brits sure knew how to do it. Great actors too especially Hilda O

[@JohnSpringateMusic]

Brilliant collection-Stans glasses get me every time :(

[@swaggerjagg22]

That trevor is horrible to hilda im suprised she didnt tell him to leave

[@romainekersting3345]

Since 1960 still going strong I dont miss a episode I even watch the old ones again on itv3.

[@TrevorThompson-nf9dp]

Great acting great when coronation street was unmissable

[@maryhinge128]

fantastic performances, loved it

[@thefrecklepuny]

The three best CS couples/double acts were surely Stan and Hilda, Jack and Vera, and Bet and Alec. Derek and Mavis had their moments, though.

[@xiPopCat]

He looked really sick on his last appearance

[@RosieWoolf]

I love it when Jack says I die of bloody boredom if I was like that!

[@lesallison9047]

Very nicely put together Kevin. Thank you.

[@mareahmom]

ahhh, those were the best of times on Corrie.

[@denisesiddon7241]

Loved her she was amusing

[@helentucker6407]

That was great Always loved hilda, thanks 👍

[@JohnJohnson-tw8qk]

Hilda and Stan were legends loved hilda ❤️

[@paulmason6474]

All those nurses, nowadays one nurse would be looking after about 20 patients. Corrie Gold

[@gracegomez1060]

Fantastic, classic Coronation Street.

[@SimonandJojo]

I love Ena Sharples quietly sitting in the snug, and breaks the ice by saying "parky out isn't Mrs.Ogden", never first names, always respectful, Hilda even replies by addressing her as "Mrs. Sharples". Wonderful actors then played their parts with truthfulness, and delivered their lines clearly, acting is awful now, lines spoke in a whisper and with no true feeling. I gave up on alot of modern TV programmes, this being one of the many reasons. You can't beat the old school of actors.

[@robclark4507]

Hilda and stan then jack and vera then les and Janice but stan and hilda are the best

[@pedanticradiator1491]

Les and Janice were a very poor imitation

[@kuchikopi4631]

Rob chuck, think you're pregnant.

[@Sarah77637]

Buying a house for £700! What a time to be alive

[@mikehudson8884]

I wish Corrie was like this now. It was so real back then. It is surely pathetic now. The attempts at humour are cringe-worthy specially with Steve MacDonald 2020. Do the script writers really expect us to swallow the crap they are churning out!!!??

[@alliemaria532]

Love Stan and hilda xx chocolate mouse lol and when Stan asked the man if he wanted to have a glass of champagne oh no sir ill be skipping around like a fawn lol

[@MrDavey2010]

Nice to see Ivor Dean as the estate agent in the first scene. Ivor was the regular police officer in all The Saint episodes with Roger Moore.

[@ruthbashford3176]

£600 for a house, unbelievable!

[@rayaspo4893]

£575

[@joe-vl3nd]

Brilliant

[@missmuffet3874]

Stan stubbing a cigarette out on the house floor. 😂😂

[@Sarah77637]

They should have brought Irma back for Stan’s funeral

[@multimill]

Did Hilda ever release 'Amapola' as a single? If not, what not?? That was classic Corrie, just a perfect moment. As has been said time and again, this is when Corrie was worth watching. All the legendary characters of old, never been repeated and never will be. After Hilda went to the Lowthers, it was never the same. Annie Walker was another massive loss to the show, she was such a huge character and like Jean Alexander, Doris Speed was a fabulous character actress.

[@grandmaoldschool7011]

Those 3 hair rollers and the scarf are absolute Hilda.

[@jackplayz1116]

It’s true what Hilda said you will never do a weeks worth of work ever again

[@white1943]

Yea to stan in 1984

[@harrycollins8705]

This is the UK I wanted to envision. I didn't get to London til 2003. Wish the old England and its traditional people still exhisted.

All that drama for a sideboard 🤣🤣

[@lawrencejhutchinson]

Jean Alexander won a Royal Television Society award, and a BAFTA nomination. This was recognition unheard of for a soap actor.

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

two taps. too good.

[@donmitchful]

Old aged yobbo lol🤣

[@corriearcade60]

Can u do more corrie

[@corriearcade60]

Nottingham Forest Archives can u do vs the streets and do fights from this era

[@marymary5494]

Ah, when soap actors could act. 👌

[@williamf4544]

You can keep your fancy starters its Prawn Cocktail every time for me

[@homahak]

Can anyone find the episode when Stan comes barging into the Rovers to tell Hilda they’d been burgled? Hilda, unflappable, replies “… if they find anything of value Stan, I’ll willingly go on halves with them”. I’m told Jean Alexander ad libbed that line.

[@bunty6268]

BLISS! BLISS! BLISSFUL ..BLISSSSS. YAAAAY.🙉🙊🙈🌟✨🌟

[@robclark4507]

Anyone notice stan slip up on 40 52 min he looked up at camara smiled when he got his words wrong

[@Phaedrax2]

Hilda! :-)

[@johnryan8173]

Jack and ferea Duckworth never replaced hilda and stan that they tried to not as good

[@leenimmo8160]

600 for a house wtf

[@edward6960]

Lee Nimmo When my wife and I were first married we paid £2,200 for our house. We’d seen one that we really liked priced at £2,500, which had a fitted kitchen, gas fires and telephone laid on, but my father put his foot down and told me I would never be able to pay the mortgage! Sounds ludicrous today, when there’s people earning that much in a month! When we first bought our house I was paying £14.7.6 a fortnight on the mortgage, which sounds like nothing, but I think I was on about £14.10/- a week!

[@beneire6955]

Where’s Jerry’s accent from the he says Hildur?

[@ocevicheband502]

I transported back too New Zealand mid 60' s on... awesome.

[@louiseowusu246]

5.40. Stan looks like Gordon Brown.

[@malcolmclements9254]

How about the slot machine episode?

[@notonyournelly5475]

That's exactly the episode I was looking for. I saw it on utube a month ago but can't find it again

[@chicagogyrl4846]

600 pounds for that back then??!

[@williamf4544]

Me and some others at work tried a wedgie board session one day at work - Elsie is right its something best left alone ( The daft things you do when you young and working with other young people in an office - of course back then in the late 70s/early 80s our sense of fun was a lot more innocent than today )

Why didn't Herman Ogden ever come back?
