So wird watching this... it like 6 years before i was even born... so different now.. I just find it weird seeing some poeple that ernt in it anymore and others that look so young here and then looking at them now :P

I think this is and will be the very peak of Coronation Street - it has slowly gone down since for some reason. The storylines and characters are weaker and people are less interested in soaps generally (or maybe they are on too much)

This was one of the first episodes of Coronation Street episodes i ever watched with my mum when i was 5.

Would Betty Driver be about 70 here?

[MeBenHalpin]

@rosebankross She was born in 1920 so she was pushing 70, but don't she look marvellous here and een now at 90 has been an extrodanary asset to Coronation Street.
