Coronation Street - 22nd May 1961

All rights belong to ITV Studios Ltd. This has been uploaded for entertainment purposes only.
This episode is already available online but only as a poor quality VHS rip from the 1990 Granada and Windsong Video “Coronation Street 1961” so uploading for the sake of having a higher quality version for viewing.
Elsie (Pat Phoenix) is upset with Arthur (Robin Wentworth) for embarrassing Ivan (Ernst Walder). Concepta (Doreen Keogh) wears a new dress for the Blackpool picnic and Annie (Doris Speed) teases her about a proposal from Harry. The group, including Ena (Violet Carson), Minnie (Margot Bryant), Martha (Lynne Carol), and others head to Blackpool and enjoy the various attractions. Jean's (Renny Lister) parents show up at No.13 to apologize and invite her and Christine (Christine Hargreaves) on a day trip. Back in Blackpool Harry proposes to a delighted Concepta while the residents take tea at the Jubilee Café before returning home.

So agree . Unbeatable! Ena and elsie. Banter in cafe hilarious and this episode - a classic . Cheers !

Realistic banter between the two characters. If it happened in today's Corrie, then one of them would be murdered after they threw scalding tea over each other during a blazing argument. The real Coronation Street died in the turn of the millennium.
