I remember going to a new year's eve party with my Mum, Dad, and Sister at my Mother's friends house in 1991 Once it hit 12pm into the new year 1992 All The adults alot who were well Oiled and all the children and teenagers of the party doing the conga down the street towards the zebra crossing once everybody hit the zebra crossing doing the conga The only car to stop was a police car never forget The look on the two copper's faces as everyone done the conga Past the police car🚔 Brings back so many memories These classic Coronation Street episode's 🏡🏠🏚️🏚️🕋🛣️🏭
Thank you for the gold oldies classic corrie episodes love the old actors it was more funny and comical in the 80s and 90s thank you again God bless you all xx
I love the oldies! It makes people think back! And jack still got his broken glasses!! I love jack and Vera a great couple make me laugh always…thank you for these great videos I love them!!!!
The scene with Angie talking to Mavis and Rita in the Kabin was reshot to allow Michael Aspel to walk in , surprising Thelma Barlow with the This is Your Life book.
Corrie really makes their money stretch when they pay for rights to a tune. Whether it's Jim's cafe, the McDonald's radio or background in the garage, you'll hear the same tune over and over. Betty Boo, Dannii Minogue, Cathy Dennis. What a flashback. :D
I didn’t realize it before but Alf is one of my favorite characters. He spews facts among his opinions that stand the test of time. And there’s Audrey, casting pearls before swine.
39:10 I must say this Percy as Santa storyline has made me chuckle quite a bit - this is the kind of Corrie I want to watch, not all the boring depressing drama.. leave that to Eastenders!
@@EveHenleySpread Thanks for replying, oh well good to know, that was a great resource & got me from 1975 to 1987, sad when it got taken down. You've done a great job taking over, I wonder how long it will last this time, 'they're' so difficult to predict, I honestly don't know why they bother, they must make tuppence halfpenny from trying to sell these years. I moved to the middle of the Irish countryside in 2018, so I was totally on my own for most of last year & old Corrie became a bit of a comfort, I watched it with my Granny when I was a child, so it felt like she was there with me. I'm aiming to go to when Bet leaves, my original ending was when Hilda left, so 20 years of Corrie in a year & a half, not bad going ;-). Many thanks for all the effort & the laughs & whether it's butter, Nutella or legs I'll always make sure they're evenly spread Jx
@@Chillmax Aww what a lovely comment J! Thank you, it's things like this that make it worthwhile.. so much so I've decided to do a little bit more when I can, although there's so many episodes in 97 that it's taking an age! I too used to watch Jerry Booth's videos.. it's how I managed to catch up on all the episodes from before I was born.. was a shame it got taken down (I imagine mine and PG's will pretty sadly).. but we'll make the most of it while we can! Thanks again! Eve x
i've just come to watch this episode from watching some episodes from 1997, and the contrast is startling. yes, i was chuckling during the reg and percy scene. i felt like taking some prozac while watching the later episodes.
Har har, no more obsessed than i am... Ive spent 7 weeks watching Corries from episode 1 in late 1960 & watched every story from each month & each year until ive now reached Dec 1991 It's been a sheer delight! Although i watched many of them when origionally broadcast, its wonderful to rewatch them now I think the very best time for Corrie was mid 1960s to mid 1970s then there was a lull But it picked up from late 70s to Late 80s Now were in 1991 i can see the cracks begining to show. I personally stopped watching Corrie in 2000, id had enough! Crappy families, bad characters Terrible storylines, nasty pieces of work & very little humour. So watch away! The pleasure is all yours Cheers 🇬🇧👧
Am I missing something, but why are various people saying that Martin and Gail will have "more room" by moving from the good-sized semi (with front and back gardens) at Hammond Road to the small end terrace at No. 8 Coronation Street? No. 8 is a much smaller house, a living room half the size and with no separate kitchen or hallway/staircase. Okay, they were buying No. 8 instead of renting, but they were downsizing in terms of living space. Mavis and Derek got the largest house in that row.
@@williamjhughes9460 it's pretty much a nationwide supply as far as I can see from Google. I'm in Scotland so we get (and always have) a tartan paper wrapper called Mother's Pride Scottish Plain? You get them in Sainsbury's, Morrisons etc. Think it's a company that Hovis or something owns anyway.
She’s so gullible,poor me,munchkin won’t leave me alone. I’d kick him where the sun don’t shine. Smug git! You think she’d learned after the Jackie fiasco. Glutton for punishment. Let’s not forget later down the line what happens!
1:00:52 Love it when Martin says he'll make a big swimming pool. I thought, just wait a few years and there will be a hole big enough to accommodate. Hahaha!
Yes. If only she'd been sent to the Tower to languish on a life sentence for receiving stolen goods, since she acts like that's going to be her fate. 🙄
Without a doubt, this is one of the greatest months of episodes I have seen in a very long time. The storylines were fantastic and the acting was honestly superb (for the most part-still think Liz is too shouty). Some highlights include Bet and Des Foster’s explosive end (which, oddly enough, looked quite familiar-*coughRitacoughAlancoughJenny*), Reg getting arrested for breaking into his own store (still can’t stand his character, but at least the situation was amusing), Andy standing up for himself against the thugs and coming home bloodied, and Gail’s moment of realization when Ivy announces she and Don aren’t moving (the slow close-in on her face is one of the single greatest directorial moments on this show I’ve seen so far). While I’ve been watching these episodes, I’ve also been watching EastEnders, and while I’ve almost always preferred EE for the storylines and acting, as I’ve believed it to feel more real and less like acting on a set, around this time, I’ve found myself looking forward to the Street and leaving the Square in the dust. To put it into perspective for anyone who watched it the first time around but forgot, most of EE’s episodes in the latter part of 1991 revolved around Eddie Royal’s murder, and I had accidentally spoiled it for myself and found out Nick was the culprit. However, they spend SO MUCH TIME making you believe Clyde was the murderer and making Michelle an accomplice that it just felt like a serious slog after a while. If you already know what happens, it just doesn’t have enough replay value. Corrie, on the other hand, had a bunch of stories that were interesting and well-thought out, and they were all executed in such a way that your interest was kept the entire time. You didn’t mind seeing it again. I’ve been mostly watching an episode a day on my lunch break, but tonight, I just HAD to binge the last five to six episodes of December 1991 to find out what happened. Again, I’m not saying Corrie is perfect right now (I still probably dislike more characters on Corrie than EE atm), but for the first time in a while, the Street is running on all cylinders and kicking the Square’s ASS. Let’s go ‘92!
During November and December 1991, the pop song "Too Many Walls" by Cathy Dennis is playing in the background in 'too many' scenes to mention. It's in the cafe, the garage and, I believe, in Gail's house (during November).
Example of hypocrisy Ken telling Alma that Baldwin has a nerve expecting her to get back with him after what he did to her😂 Hypocrite thy name is Barlow
Can we at least agree that Martin and Gail, at this point, have much better 'chemistry' than Brian and Gail ever had? Martin's good humored exuberance kind of balances out Gail's pessimistic contrary outlook. Probably won't last though.....
Virtue Signalling Street is what it should be called nowadays...watched it 20 mins about three years ago, and catch 5 mins every now and then...its just shocking now.
So true I tried to watch it a few years 2022 Hadn't watched it in ten years couldn't cope with it after 20 Minutes had to turn it off it had changed beyond Recognition
One thing that always bugs me about Corrie; this business of dishing up meals as soon as somebody walks in the door. I'm watching Don put food out on plates before Ivy even comes in the house. I notice it with other families as well. Weird and wouldn't happen in real life.
Not just dinner but breakfast too, everyone sits around the table eating breakfast, all perfectly done with tea in the teapot, toast perfectly placed in the toast holders, let’s be honest here, who’s got time for that first thing in the morning? It’s lovely to see but never hardly happens in real life, unless you are retired or rich and have staff doing it for you!
Yes i do agree with your points! Whenever we invite people to dine whatever the occasion, we take their coats, get them comfortable, offer drinks, & depending when we're going to eat, we have canapes or nice but small nibbles. We catch up with each other, chat, mingle then once we're in a convivial mood, we sit down to a lovely table & THEN, the 1st course is served. Usually our guests take time, chatting between courses so all in all its a long, cozy, amiable evening! Thats in our cold months here in Britain. However during summer we often entertain al fresco Which is my favourite. The last few decades, outside dining has become very popular With Pergolas & special dining furniture have become de rigeur I've never ever, been been invited to a home & had my coat dragged off me, thrust in to a dining chair & a plate of food pushed under my nose! Id be horrified! I do know in working class areas where the family wait at the table for the father to walk through the door & immediately all the meals come out of the oven where they have been keeping warm, then the family dive in ! As Corrie is based in a working class area of Manchester where Cotton Mill Workers once lived I think this old traditional way of family eating still exists. Each to his own, I say, i also love Corrie episodes from the past! Ive spent .months watching every batch from the 1960s up until this one I stopped watching the show in 2000, as it wasnt the same anymore, such a shame. Heres to you & cheers 🇬🇧👧
Love these early episodes so much! But poor Alma, caught between manipulative Mike and Ken Barlow, an even bigger, self centered, Egomaniac, Alma was a fool to herself.
`In the real world`, no way would a little back street pub be employing so many people all on duty at the same time. Betty, Liz, Jack, Angie plus Bet. So that's 4 sets of wages being paid for a pub that at peak time would have about 25 people in. All a bit daft really. In reality they would have someone doing the food, and maybe one other helping the landlady Bet.
Interesting point. I used to do the garden at a local in the short hours era. The publican would open at half five and serve both bars until staff arrived at 6. It was quite something seeing Reg going backwards and forwards.He always kept up.
3:53:10 ..JIM ..” Look, nobody is gonna get beatin’ up alright! I don’t wanna be hearing another word on the subject, alright! It is Christmas Day! It’s a time of peace and good will to all men and by God are we going to have some of it in this house!!! Ah Christmas.. when we try SO hard for that one perfect day 🤣😭❤
From 1:56:51 if there was a scene where Kev the foghorn should have piped up it was during this where Sally Krueger decided she was a partner/authority on the business rather than a dickhead who sells tins of peas next door to match her brain.
Surely Gail and Martin would be eligible to buy their council house?!? A much better house than Number 8 and would have cost them a fraction of the price with tenant discount.
2:55:05 quite possibly the WORST telephone acting in the history of telephone acting. Bet giving "Alec" oh at least half a second to reply between each question and statement 😂😂😂
Alma told Ken she was 47, and he said she looked younger than that. Amanda Barrie was 56 years old when this was filmed. And to me, she certainly looks it.
The character of Alma is not the same age as the actress Amanda Barrie. There's nothing unusual about that. You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
I normally like Mike, but what he's doing to poor Alma is just awful. I think I'll forward past the scenes with him in them.The only thing worse than what Mike did is what Ken did.
End of 1991 dominated by the tedious car radios debacle. Being as Mavis and Derek are so prim and proper, why on earth didn't they, or rather she, simply go to a shop and buy a brand new car radio? Thank goodness for manipulating Mike Baldwin, who cunningly convinced Tracy Barlow to invite Ken for Christmas dinner, so the path lay clear for him to seduce Alma. Also dastardly Des Foster for trying to rekindle things with Bet - at least those were two storylines worth hanging on for. As for Percy as Father Christmas - where to begin!
Nice trip up memory lane. Tho Liz can be annoying the way she grilled Andy poor lad looked like she was angry at him. She would be good interrogating prisoner’s
Anyone binge watching in 2024? I started with the 1979 episodes. Thanks for uploading these
Yeah started from 1976
Yep they got me in lol 😆
I am so enjoying these vintage episodes, so much better than the awful current offerings, thank you so much 😊
I remember going to a new year's eve party with my Mum, Dad, and Sister at my Mother's friends house in 1991
Once it hit 12pm into the new year 1992 All The adults alot who were well
Oiled and all the children and teenagers of the party doing the conga down the street towards the zebra crossing once everybody hit the zebra crossing doing the conga
The only car to stop was a police car never forget
The look on the two copper's faces as everyone done the conga
Past the police car🚔
Brings back so many memories These classic
Coronation Street episode's 🏡🏠🏚️🏚️🕋🛣️🏭
Thank you for the gold oldies classic corrie episodes love the old actors it was more funny and comical in the 80s and 90s thank you again God bless you all xx
You’re very welcome Kim! Glad you’re enjoying it! 😉 x
Your an absolute diamond for uploading these classic Corrie episodes. Thank you, very much appreciated.
I love the oldies! It makes people think back! And jack still got his broken glasses!! I love jack and Vera a great couple make me laugh always…thank you for these great videos I love them!!!!
These episodes are pure gold!
The scene with Angie talking to Mavis and Rita in the Kabin was reshot to allow Michael Aspel to walk in , surprising Thelma Barlow with the This is Your Life book.
No way!!!!!
I went back onto UA-cam to find the 'This is your life' episode with Thelma lol
Love these classic coronation streets episodes ❤ thanks ❤
Corrie really makes their money stretch when they pay for rights to a tune. Whether it's Jim's cafe, the McDonald's radio or background in the garage, you'll hear the same tune over and over. Betty Boo, Dannii Minogue, Cathy Dennis. What a flashback. :D
Thanks for uploading love Classic Corrie. Percy great just feel sorry for Emily
Love Des Barnes character. If I was Phyllis it would make me very happy with the cheeky respect he gives her ❤️
Thank you again!
I didn’t realize it before but Alf is one of my favorite characters. He spews facts among his opinions that stand the test of time. And there’s Audrey, casting pearls before swine.

I would have been only 6 when these aired. I love watching them. I can't take my eyes off Angie when she's on screen. Beautiful lady.
I have watched 4 months in a week . Am I obsessed ?
No course not! 😉
No, you're smart.
Har har, no more obsessed than i am...

I think the very best time for
Corrie was mid 1960s to mid 1970s then there was a lull
But it picked up from late 70s to
Late 80s
Now were in 1991 i can see the cracks begining to show.
I personally stopped watching Corrie in 2000, id had enough!
Crappy families, bad characters
Terrible storylines, nasty pieces of work & very little humour.
So watch away! The pleasure is all yours
Cheers
🇬🇧👧
No u have good taste I love it can’t stop watching it
Hahaa welcome to the club. My elderly parents think I'm nutzzzz lol
A real joy to watch, no scenes or bad characters I wanted to skip! Thank you
I just love Betty with all her little expressions and faces!!
Great episodes, I notice there were more older actors in the older episodes, this brought a wider appeal, this is missing in modern episodes x
Me after watching this 🎶Too many dreams have been shattered around us.
If I seem to give up they'd still never win …….🎶
Alma would have to be one of the nicest characters that was ever on Corrie.
She wasn’t very nice three years previously, although her attitude has changed,
I find her so wet though, those great big cow eyes, like a willowy weed.
yeah. screw that emily bishop. self-centred old biddy!
lovely lady.
Lovely but she is as weak as water & half as salty.
1:38:12-1:39:43 Love this interaction between Mavis and Steve. She finally gets the innuendo, comments and snickers. So Mavis. 😁

Mike is giving really sleazy vibes here and you could punch that smarmy grin off his face. Can't believe Alma fell for it.
I hate that he won.
Because she's not that smart. She never sees the big picture - it's always about not feeling lonely in the moment.
She’s so gullible,poor me,munchkin won’t leave me alone. I’d kick him where the sun don’t shine. Smug git! You think she’d learned after the Jackie fiasco. Glutton for punishment. Let’s not forget later down the line what happens!

As a proud Canadian I appreciate the way Jim wears the Blue Jay's cap and pullover. Wonder why he does though...
Was wondering that as well. Was Corrie on in Canada?
Yes it's on here in Canada.
Face like a cabbage patch doll, hilarious 😂
Love!
One thing to say to Alma's Christmas day 'activities' - Self Respect!
Heavens above! I really wish they would come for Mavis and throw away the key... ridiculous character.
She certainly was when married to Derek, they became ridiculous as a duo! She was a much funnier character single in my opinion! :-)
Yes. If only she'd been sent to the Tower to languish on a life sentence for receiving stolen goods, since she acts like that's going to be her fate. 🙄

@@clairemelia4950 pair of them give me a fkn nosebleed 😂
tbh the point of the car radio storyline is to catch the thief not prosecute the McDonalds
The cafe door slamming shut sounds like a cannon firing! 39:56
Omg she's now turned into a grass lol, 🤣😂🥰
Ken is 100% like Mike that's why they don't get along
What an inane, inaccurate comment.
Surely Gail and Martin would be eligible to buy their council house?!? A much better house than Number 8 and would have cost them a fraction of the price with tenant discount.
Is the only entrance to Alma's flat through the cafe??
There is a side entrance outside
@@sherylbarker9465 noone seems to use it
There's no end to Mavis' stupidity. Lol
"Cow-a-bloomin'-bunga!"
Liz's husband is mad, he's having a go at Audrey and it's his son going around colluding with criminals.
The actor who plays him is mad too...
Great in the carry on films alma
G Plus repeat was Late June/Early July 2003
Omg Martin he’s so annoying all he does is moan and make weird noises he’s a creep 😂
Vera explains why it is your civic duty to gossip about folk, in this case Bet Gilroy, lest you aid and abet them. 2:08:00
😅😂🎉
Curly’s hair looks like it’s been hacked with a pair of blunt scissors!
Awww diddums Mike loves Alma after being kicked out by the millionaire lady 😅It's all about Mike, isn't it. Stay with KEN, Alma!
2:55:05 quite possibly the WORST telephone acting in the history of telephone acting. Bet giving "Alec" oh at least half a second to reply between each question and statement 😂😂😂
So sick of Sean Wilson talking ridiculously loudly whilst walking into room. His overacting is beginning to reach another level of annoyance for me.
I couldn't stand him from day one! Awful actor!
"Eh, Eh. What's going on here Eh, Eh, Eh?"
King Tut of Sighs
I hate it when he smooches with Titch and makes loud love noises.
Alma told Ken she was 47, and he said she looked younger than that. Amanda Barrie was 56 years old when this was filmed. And to me, she certainly looks it.
The character of Alma is not the same age as the actress Amanda Barrie.
There's nothing unusual about that. You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Thanks so much!
Ivy is like a moth to a flame 🔥 she moans at everything
I tell you, Lady whine a lot.
so does Alf he is doing my head in lol
Why does curly have to shout all the time
Alma is so pretty x
In hysterics with Angie and jack The 'tip' scene!! 1.18
I might have nodded off, binge watching all these wonderful episodes BUT where is Tracy Barlow? Haven't seen her for a bit. Can't be in jail yet 😂
I normally like Mike, but what he's doing to poor Alma is just awful. I think I'll forward past the scenes with him in them.The only thing worse than what Mike did is what Ken did.
End of 1991 dominated by the tedious car radios debacle. Being as Mavis and Derek are so prim and proper, why on earth didn't they, or rather she, simply go to a shop and buy a brand new car radio? Thank goodness for manipulating Mike Baldwin, who cunningly convinced Tracy Barlow to invite Ken for Christmas dinner, so the path lay clear for him to seduce Alma. Also dastardly Des Foster for trying to rekindle things with Bet - at least those were two storylines worth hanging on for. As for Percy as Father Christmas - where to begin!
Some of these storylines like Ken/Mike/Alma triangle and the war with Ivy & her family are starting to wear thin now. ..
Is Sally's baby always eating
Urrggh Mike Baldwin is the pushiest conniving creep out. He doesn't care about Alma, he is just so arrogant and manipulative.
Jim needs Reg's phone number for midnight window repairs 😅
The McDonald family are really troubled family.
Nice trip up memory lane. Tho Liz can be annoying the way she grilled Andy poor lad looked like she was angry at him. She would be good interrogating prisoner’s
