LOL - Like all the characters when they are 'new' that enter C. Street - they always end up getting a personality transplant somewhere down the line...
@K90_ 2019 Ha Ha, what about Cathy then? Remember her when Dev and Roy met her at an Allotment? She was a TOTALLY different person (nasty) back then - and she was already a mature adult! How do you explain tat? And there are loads of others I could mention... I think you are the one who’s immature to fall for it all! LOL :-) Maybe you weren't so THICK some years ago - or maybe you were! LOL :-)
weird that toyah and Leanne seemed to have like one dimensional personalities and they also both used to be completely similar 😂😂 hahha nope not now love the battersby girls though
I had many a rough neighours and bratty kids.. bk then 🤣🤣🤣🤣 kids with baby's getting houses. Who would cause trouble which ended up after many years of trouble yo be evicted. It's now a quiet street after 15yrs of rough families and young mothers
I think it's mainly because EastEnders was getting way more viewers than Corrie, and Brian Park the unpopular new producer at the time wanted to make some changes to it.
The typical family from hell who drag their kids up instead of bringing them up. Nowadays they wouldn't even go to a supermarket.They would go to a food bank instead and blow their money on cigarettes and alcohol.
leanne was great in her early days, especially in her first stint 1997-2000 then for a while on her 2004 return till around 2007 when she was a escort . since then she's become dull to watch.
Because in real life people change as they age, particularly if they've led a tumultuous lifestyle and eventually settle down. Leanne's character maturity is realistic, in my opinion.
@@elgee6202 yes that is true! But people can also get more fiesty and outspoken as they age too, depending on the person. It would have been interesting to see Leanne develop more into a loudmouth like Janice or Cilla.
when I stopped watching Coronation street.. Hated the Battersbys.. Especially Janice. Couldn't stand her and her annoying voice.."Les, you little Liaaar!" Always giving that waste of space another chance.
Leanne looks like Ginger Spice 😂Oh god I miss the 90s.
OMG yes Leanne's Ginger Spice days
Done on purpose as they were the hottest mainstream act at the time
I looked way worse than her when I was a teenager. I looked like the honey monster
Better times that's for sure
She looks more like Pocahontas
lol Almas photo "I'm a sad ole bag"
Toyah looks incredible in those shorts
Absolutely
Great video thanks for posting
I’m a sad old bag 😂 lol
Crazy how for the first minute they say absolutely fuckall 😂
Back when they were fun and cool

They just matured and grew up
Characters need to evolve.
@@Hulk2k6 Evolve yes - but totally transformed into another character no...

K90_2019 Maybe you were thick some years ago - maybe you still are!
1:02 HERE COME THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES!!!!!
Back when corrie was good.
I agree. Thats so true.
Everybody had character then.
THX.
Leanne is so fit then and even fitter now
Toyah is so sexy tho it's the eye's
Got a point tbf
Not fitter now she was fitter then so was toyah
imagine Les battersby fight pat phelan
Les would get knocked out
Pat phelan would make shit of him
Phelan would get torn a new one.
The beginning of the end of Corrie as we knew it. This family arriving was when it started to become a Northern EastEnders, Brookside The Bill.
It was the moment that the working class became the butt of the joke, not the ones telling them.
weird that toyah and Leanne seemed to have like one dimensional personalities and they also both used to be completely similar 😂😂 hahha nope not now love the battersby girls though
The Days When it showed us Freasgoes i have not seen Leanne’s And Toylas first episode before
“toyah”😂😂😂
Funny that Mike Baldwin used to live at Number 5 where the Battersby's are moving into
Leanne vandalised employee of the month picture lol
I don't remember the supermarket Firman's Freezers nor Alma working there!
Gawd used to hate them..type of neighbours you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy
I had many a rough neighours and bratty kids.. bk then 🤣🤣🤣🤣 kids with baby's getting houses. Who would cause trouble which ended up after many years of trouble yo be evicted. It's now a quiet street after 15yrs of rough families and young mothers
Me going "shopping"
Good 👍 old 😤 90s😁🎵
Please upload some more Sarah vids
Yeah Sarah ones are the best
BACK WHEN THEY WERE FUN AND COOL
that shops shrunk alot lol
This was Freshcos, which you don't see anymore
It’s not the corner shop (devs shop)
Wa song was that
Imagine Les vs Jim vs Phelan vs Rick Neelan
Toyah and them tight-ass shorts.
Wow my family is embarrassing
LEANNE IS SO FIT THEN AND EVER FITTER NOW GLORY SENGO
1.00 toyahs foot stamp is op
My second name is Battersby
Toyah is soooo skinny now.
Too skinny
White Cake rude
No she’s not
She’s an awesome actress. I’m glad she’s on Corrie still
The beginning of the end...
I think the beginning of the end was really when Bet Gilroy
From what I remember it was done in response to low ratings, Corrie back then was dominated by middle-aged characters compared to the others.
I think it's mainly because EastEnders was getting way more viewers than Corrie, and Brian Park the unpopular new producer at the time wanted to make some changes to it.
Two charactors who the producers were grossly inconsistent with
The typical family from hell who drag their kids up instead of bringing them up. Nowadays they wouldn't even go to a supermarket.They would go to a food bank instead and blow their money on cigarettes and alcohol.
When the show went down hill.
They rescued the show when it was already losing viewers, the Battersbys did to Corrie what the Slaters did for EastEnders.
leanne was great in her early days, especially in her first stint 1997-2000 then for a while on her 2004 return till around 2007 when she was a escort . since then she's become dull to watch.

Toyah's hot- do you think Toyah and Leanne are hotter now or back then?
Leanne back then, Toyah now
Toyah 2000 was fit as she still is now
Both back then
Charlie 6th
How does Ken know Leanne and toyah?
because ken teaches toyah at school
He was their teacher.
when I stopped watching Coronation street.. Hated the Battersbys.. Especially Janice. Couldn't stand her and her annoying voice.."Les, you little Liaaar!"
