You Tube wouldn't allow the original opening music to this (Elvis) so I dubbed the corrie theme over it, and finally you can now here the full audio on the video!

I'm so used to seeing Ena ready to fight - it's heartbreaking watching her cry at 8:10, isn't it?!

@kevgrey1985 anyone who can remotely connect corrie and that unspeakable sewage big brother is ill and should be quietly put to sleep along with participants,crew,audience(for them i may commute to life)this unspeakable garbage is a overt insult to those too thick to realise what little intellect they posess is being insulted.crap like this plumbed new depths tv has yet to recover from if ever.what next ib your diseased mind:"ex aushwitz guards do the funniest things".?

@MeBenHalpin.i,m an avid fan of the street but bill roach is not a brilliant actor but a very shrewd man who realised he would never rise to great acclaim and using great forward vision made his character indespensible to the street and had reaped very nice financial rewards for fifty years and long may he continue to do so.great no an institution yes.

The one thing about this show is the theme music its so well made.

[MsFanmail]

elsie tanner was great in corrie

[lincsposter]

Ray was a ... well lets be polite a scamp! He could have been a great entertainrer!Sadly his manager let him down big time!

@No1barney1 Im sorry but William Roach is wonderful actor, 50 years on Britains top soap, you can have nothing but admiration for the man.
