Everyday and everynight i am glued to my coronation street as i was back when i used to run home from school to watch it and again when i was pregnant with my first child who is now 33 yrs old, i WOULD BE SO LOST WITHOUT MY CORONATION STREET, REMINDES ME OF HAPPIER TIMES. NEVER TAKE IT OFF, IT IS THE REAL DEAL, LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA.
This 80’s Coronation Street is boring, useless, and most of the episodes of any year are unbelievable and make no sense! Bette is not Bette anymore! I skip over most of the content of all episodes, no matter what year! I will be going back to watching the ones from the 70’s and earlier, soon! I’m dying of boredom!
She does it to everyone, she's an aggressive person who starts shouting at virtually no provocation, mostly directed at poor Jack. She deserved to lose her job, her attitude sucks and she's inefficient. It's good that the writers softened Vera a lot as she got older, she was much nicer.
I saw a couple glimps of Gloria looking very pregnant , in the blue stripe shirt, which surprized me. I was thinking that story was to get her off on maternity leave ? On her exit with brother she keeps wrapping that coat over her belly bulge.
Is it just me or is Terry Duckworth becoming more and more unpleasant as the episodes role on? I used to think he was just a cheeky lad - now, he's just nasty.
I love ❤️ the old corries it takes me back, I think Alec and bet made a lovely couple, thank you 🙏 for the upload I remember watching these (I’m in my late 50s now) and watching these over again as gave me fond memories
No lots kids never bothered to go to school back then. I know kids who at 13 use to go and unload the fishing boats in the early hours of the morning. No school, just cash in hand. Parents didn't bother cause the kids weren't clever and wouldn't go to school anyway. Different times, there was no help at school. Well not much.
43:35 - A temporary farewell to Gloria Todd, whose real-life pregnancy was getting harder and harder to hide these last few episodes. I believe she returned from maternity leave (Gloria's trip to Canada) around April 1987.
I love ❤Mrs Ogden’s laugh 😆 it made me giggle 🤭 i hope 🤞 bet and Alec get together they make a lovely couple thank you 🙏 for the uploads of the old ones
The car overturning….. poor scriptwriting, very predictable. They could have made more of it by using the occasion to get two very boring characters out of the show once and for all.
Susan was never deserving of mike's loyalty she begroaned at every twist and turn at him accusing him of being manipulative saying he only married her to bore him children. mike gave her everything that was going , and when she did get pregnant in year that follow she aborted his child .that's good loyal wife for you.
She is annoying. I was thinking this was all about Sarah Fergusons time. Did they hire her to ad a touch of Sarah to the show? I find Jenny unattractive.
And the cop is soooo professional…. Never asks who was driving! Policing 101 surely. Poor Martin lying in bed, for the most part unconscious, and the only medical procedure we see is a thermometer put in his mouth!
Opposite scenario of Holly Wood bolly wood (overplay in latter) I'm sure they'll xray his skull, if he starts vomiting and passing out without any other reasons .... old school medical procedures
The addition of Alec Gilroy was a stroke of brilliance! A perfect foil for our Bett Im enjoying their storyline very much! The only bad point in the Corrie saga is the tedious Mavis & Derek Tragedy ! It should have ended a good 18mths ago, knocked on the head finito! Keeping up the rediculous Story line is boring & so old hat its embarrassing! They should have buried the idiot derek & brought Victor back in at least he had some pep & his madcap ideas were very funny The Rita & Alan Story line is a tad boring & droopy Mave the Rave & Derek should be put 6ft under Love Love Love Bett & Alec Also big cheers for the Gail & Bry - yunnn saga isnt too bad & its nice seeing gail with a backbone & giving mamas boy bri The run round. Love the little Websters, Kev & Sal are a breath of fresh air. Wish they would set Hilda up with a beau, an old friend of Stans would have been a good idea. They should stop bringing in mediocre families then disappearing them, The Curley & Terry story should be developed more A romantic interlude for Curley & one for Ivy Gloria is a good character but don't know how her story goes They lost the plot with Corrie later on from 2000 onwards The family values & good characters, its proves it by the poor audience for Corrie nowadays & the love for these old episodes! The script writers should be made to watch these old episodes & learn something!! Cheers 🇬🇧👧
I agree with all your points, but I did like Mavis and Derek. The two of them were so eccentric and brought much comedy moments during their time on the soap. 2000 was the year I started to lose interest in Corrie. Cracks were starting to appear during the Brian Park era, although it still had a good balance of drama and comedy.
I love watching but how could I watch month after month all I seam to get are back or front would love to watch month after month I love it if someone could tell me thank you
I think Sandra who phoned maggie later on was working in Alan Bradley’s security shop then went out with Mike Baldwin I could be totally mistaken but I’m sure it’s her
Her husband in real life Played Eric Pollards Mate Charlie Ainsdale In Emmerdale In the early 90s She also went on to play Jackie Corkhill In Brookside in the 90s,
The cafe that appeared here, Jim's Cafe, isn't shown on screen anymore or hasn't even been mentioned since Roy moved to his current premises on Victoria Street in 1999. Interestingly, the original Kabin was right next door to Jim's Cafe but moved in 1990, and it was never mentioned what became of it despite the Cafe being still on screen for 9 more years.
Isn't that good of Percy? Taking it upon himself to go from house to house, on new years eve, to broadcast bad news, that could easily have kept until a later date. The old bastard didn't have the sense to realize he's putting a damper on folks celebrations, unnecessarily. That's most likely why he had no mates, or anybody that wanted him at their new years festivities.

I prefer the classic episodes myself!
86 on coronation street was dying so many great actors gone ❤ Ive watched over n over from beginning 😊
@@jstewart3517Gone, along with punctuation. 😢
I’m from the States and I absolutely love Corrie. It’s all I watch. I’ve watched decades on UA-cam. Love watching the differences of our cultures.
Miserable cuss.@@flumpaustin1994
Mrs o is a breath of fresh air in these days
Everything was good about the 80s. The women, the sport, the music and Coronation Street.
This 80’s Coronation Street is boring, useless, and most of the episodes of any year are unbelievable and make no sense! Bette is not Bette anymore!

Professional Gun....... thank you for what you do !! We do appreciate it
I love the New Years parties at the Rovers and Hilda's. I'd love a NY party just like those - so much fun.
It brings back memories of 1986 when they play the records that were in the charts then!
You'd think Vera would stop bad mouthing Susan she just got her job back by the skin of her teeth
Vera is horrible. I'd sack her if I was mike. I wish vera wasn't in the program.
She does it to everyone, she's an aggressive person who starts shouting at virtually no provocation, mostly directed at poor Jack. She deserved to lose her job, her attitude sucks and she's inefficient. It's good that the writers softened Vera a lot as she got older, she was much nicer.
She is a loudmouthed troublemaker and I hate her. Skiving is her middlename.
Bet Was A Fantastic Character Such A Gritty
Northern English Woman🥃🚬💃 Great Actress Julie Goodyear And Roy Barraclough Who Plays Alec Gilroy
Sally's uncle would have been perfect for Hilda as he seemed like a nice man.

Thank you so much for posting these really appreciate your time
Martin gets on my wick....Thanks for the memories.plus his best acting was in the hospital playing unconscious 😂.
Anyone else not give a tuppenny fig about the Gloria/ long lost brother situation?
Yep…I don’t give a fig about the Gloria/long lost brother thing either
I saw a couple glimps of Gloria looking very pregnant , in the blue stripe shirt, which surprized me. I was thinking that story was to get her off on maternity leave ? On her exit with brother she keeps wrapping that coat over her belly bulge.
People don't realise how good an actress Rita Fairclough is !
Rita Fairclough is a character. Barbara Knox is an actress.
Maggie looks like the childlike empress from The Neverending Story with that unflattering flat hairstyle!
😂😂😂
Great stuff-thanks very much.
I have to fast forward through the Jenny and Martin scenes 😂 can't bear them!
Same here.
Jenny’s singing is just appalling
Love Beg but her wigs are something to be desired
Beg, hehe
Love the way Audrey has to feed little Nicky his lines at 2:19:15
Is it just me or is Terry Duckworth becoming more and more unpleasant as the episodes role on? I used to think he was just a cheeky lad - now, he's just nasty.
Oh he gets much worse.
I used to like his character, he was good despite his parents. At this point he is the worst of his two parents and poor acting as well.
maybe it's because his parents sparring Has rubbed off on him, especially Vera's abrasiveness.
Excellent 👏👏 upload as always
Mikes turned his lounge room into Hyacinth Bouquets 😂😂
I love ❤️ the old corries it takes me back, I think Alec and bet made a lovely couple, thank you 🙏 for the upload I remember watching these (I’m in my late 50s now) and watching these over again as gave me fond memories
I dont know why but i never liked that susan barlow.i thought she was rubbish at acting
No wonder her career ended with Corrie
Wooden 🎉
Susan and Mike are a complete mismatch ... Mike could have done a lot better than that Harpy.
All the ironing is enough to drive you the dark ages or crazy
Maggie’s hair is awful!
She reminds me of a little goblin.
Is that Mikes little boy ? His ex-Maggie?
Maggie is awful full stop. Ghastly character
She also had short hair in 'The Other One' with Richard Briers and Michael Gambon and was equally unlikeable.
Susan's colleague looks and sounds like a young Rita! Same expressions and line delivery. Uncanny
I do love the tracking a little step down memory lane there remember video tapes!!!
35:54 Bet's red dress is beautiful
"Young" Susan looks about 45 ...
I think they aged her because Mike was so much older. They've done the same with Bet in anticipation of her getting together with Alec.
Mike should have told Susan to leave HIS business the hell alone!
Hang on-Susan said Mike’s 44, and he said he’s been in the business 30 years! That means he started at 14-wouldn’t he have been at school?
No lots kids never bothered to go to school back then. I know kids who at 13 use to go and unload the fishing boats in the early hours of the morning. No school, just cash in hand. Parents didn't bother cause the kids weren't clever and wouldn't go to school anyway. Different times, there was no help at school. Well not much.
No, he says he was a barrow boy back then
😂😂😂
He was a barrowboy in the East end of London. They certainly worked at 14!
Mike came up the hardvway; ducking and diving from an early age ...

Moggies a lier. She didn't want mike when he wouldn't lend her money.
Corrie was fantastic until last 10 years
Terry duckworth was always shouting he got on my nerves.
Same as his gobby mother.
But Jack Was A Great Character Was So Glad When Terry Left💨
Ice Queen Maggie is twisted!
The car overturning….. poor scriptwriting, very predictable. They could have made more of it by using the occasion to get two very boring characters out of the show once and for all.
i notice mike got rid of his green leather sofa.
Susan was never deserving of mike's loyalty she begroaned at every twist and turn at him accusing him of being manipulative saying he only married her to bore him children. mike gave her everything that was going , and when she did get pregnant in year that follow she aborted his child .that's good loyal wife for you.
She didn't really abort. She had his son, Adam. He is a solicitor in modern Corrie.
Why could Martin never date a girl of his own age? Either much younger (child) with Jenny or Katy Harris or much older Gail
Much older Gayle??! On the show she is only in her early 20’s! She married Brian when she was 19! And in the future, Gail and Martin will marry! 😂🤣
@@chicagogyrl4846Martin is 10 years younger than Gail, everybody knows this is a significant age gap including themselves.
Was ,1986 the year bet started dressing like a drag act
In my opinion corrie started to go downhill once Alec became a fixture
I personally liked Alec and his family arc, I wasn't a big fan of the Mcdonalds lads though :s
@@kuchikopi4631 yeah I wasn't fond of them either
I think that too. I can't even watch his scenes. I aways loved Bet, but the way she is around Alec really irritates me.
I could pick plenty of other reasons to start disliking the show.
Martin with more airtime...grunting and sighing past himself.
Martin went from one extreme to the other...
Never understood how Punch and Judy was entertainment.
Deidre really grates on me! Acting all squeaky clean all the time.
Jenny’s really stubborn 4 her own good 😊.
She is annoying. I was thinking this was all about Sarah Fergusons time. Did they hire her to ad a touch of Sarah to the show? I find Jenny unattractive.
Why does a small woman like Ivy always stand so far from the door she has to nearly bend double to open it?
It could be because Lynne Perrie was permenantly drunk on set
Ivy saying Martin is a nice little lad........ Didn't like him just a few years later!
1:51:17. ...and in walks an ugly dog barking crap. I feel so bad for Mike "he's a lovely little boy"
It’s the lawnmower accident haircut
I feel bad for Mike too, Maggie is an absolute goblin looking monster.
Vera your never a voice in the wilderness that voice of yours carries
And the cop is soooo professional…. Never asks who was driving! Policing 101 surely. Poor Martin lying in bed, for the most part unconscious, and the only medical procedure we see is a thermometer put in his mouth!
At least the thermometer wasn't put in the other end 😂😂😂
Opposite scenario of Holly Wood bolly wood (overplay in latter) I'm sure they'll xray his skull, if he starts vomiting and passing out without any other reasons .... old school medical procedures
Rita and Hilda have same dishes lol
Probably literally the same set
I noticed that, too.
I love following the cups and teapots etc around, especially in 70s episodes. I always go straight to who has which tablecloth this week too 😂
Percy saying Mavis goes ‘leaping in upsetting people’!
The addition of Alec Gilroy was a stroke of brilliance!
A perfect foil for our Bett
Im enjoying their storyline very much!
The only bad point in the Corrie saga is the tedious Mavis & Derek
Tragedy !
It should have ended a good 18mths ago, knocked on the head finito! Keeping up the rediculous
Story line is boring & so old hat its embarrassing!
They should have buried the idiot derek & brought Victor back in at least he had some pep & his madcap ideas were very funny
The Rita & Alan Story line is a tad boring & droopy
Mave the Rave & Derek should be put 6ft under
Love Love Love Bett & Alec
Also big cheers for the Gail &
Bry - yunnn saga isnt too bad & its nice seeing gail with a backbone & giving mamas boy bri
The run round.
Love the little Websters, Kev & Sal are a breath of fresh air.
Wish they would set Hilda up with a beau, an old friend of Stans would have been a good idea.
They should stop bringing in mediocre families then disappearing them,
The Curley & Terry story should be developed more
A romantic interlude for Curley
& one for Ivy
Gloria is a good character but don't know how her story goes
They lost the plot with Corrie later on from 2000 onwards
The family values & good characters, its proves it by the poor audience for Corrie nowadays & the love for these old episodes!
The script writers should be made to watch these old episodes
& learn something!!
Cheers

Bette is absolutely right! He would not be dating her if she were the bar maid! His interest is the pub, not her!! 😂🤣

That hard faced, bird woman.
Who?

Magpie...er...Maggie!
Maggie the Terrahawk
Susan should feel sad for Mike - not angry
Maggie’s hair! 😂🤣
Bet dreeses like shes in a pantomime and that hair/wig 😊 70s early 80s bet with her hair up and skimpy outfits made her more camp and fun. 🥰
Martin and Gail ... both chinless wonders .
Ivy & Audrey awww nice ❤
The play school worker’s husband made an odd comment that she relayed to Susan! Shouldn’t say stuff like that in any age!
I thought that too
Bette called him slimy, now she’s going out with him! I can’t believe she’s going out with this man! Only in Corrie fantasy land! 😂🤣
She didn’t know that Mike had a kid??! 😂🤣
Twist dance SU garden 2:54:33
Susan's blonde was hot 🔥 Her Designer young ginger mate Look's like a young Rita absolute double looks like she could be Rita's Daughter
Jenny was lucky not to get seriously injured.
It's a pity Jenny didn't get a clout in her big gob ...
Why doesn’t Rita do her singing act anymore??!
Where did Susan and her friend get their fashion sense they look like hinge and bracket
The character of Susan is painful 🤷🏼♂️
How do drive off the road like that??! 😂🤣
Gloria looks pregnant at 31:25
That's because she was
She probably was, with Emily
Her husband in real life
Played Eric Pollards Mate
Charlie Ainsdale In Emmerdale In the early 90s She also went on to play Jackie Corkhill In Brookside in the 90s,
The boom microphone keeps making an appearance...very sloppy!
I’ve never seen it!
I love how they making out there eating lol
Is there currently a flat above the cafe?

Whatever kid plays "Nicky" has zero volume control...why does he have to shout..can't he just speak!🙉
Poor Martin oh thing pale SU garden
I don’t remember Fred and Eddie fighting over Audrey!
Hi..,it wasn't Eddie that Fred was fighting with over Audrey ,..it was someone called Barney...24 Dec 1980
Ida's wig!😅
Is Gloria pregnant there?
Yes xx
What did mike ever see in maggie 😮 susan chop off old block demanding selfish
God! Gloria’s brother Richard is a terrible, terrible actor!
