I’ve watched Hilda’s exit quite a few times now and it always brings a tear to my eye. Jean Alexander was an amazing actress. Coronation street was never the same after she left.

Hilda left due to a broken heart, she felt the world she knew, her Street, was becoming her prison. Instead of marrying Tom, she left to take care of Dr Lowther's broken heart and to escape hers. A bittersweet exit. And she never wore her turban and rollers after the attack....the old Hilda had gone.😢 We'll always love you ❤

Such a lovely send off for the Queen of British Soaps... ta ra chuck!

I know this was ages ago but I had tears in my eyes when Hilda left, she is definitely one of my favorites! Jean Alexander was a great actress!

Thank you saddest episode 😢 Hilda marks the end of great acting 😢

Broke my heart when hilda went to stans grave and said hey Stan I reckon your in the right place

@Professional Gun 66 Thank you for your hard work uploading all these years of Coronation Street. You have made me and many people happy 😀

Those sweet singing tones of Hilda were great to hear again

Goodbye Hilda Chuck. The street was never ever the same without you.

Farewell to a legend. R.I.P Jean Alexander.

Oh Eddie, how I miss you! And nothing will be the same without Hilda.😪

Eddie and Hilda, my two favourites on the street. Best acting, best characters💜💜Rip Jean Alexander and Geoffrey Hughes.

Hilda, what an icon ❤️

Made me cry... Hilda is fantastic

That is what I miss about Coronation street back in the day; something to laugh and cry about. They had comedy that we still can not find today and touching scenes that made us cry.

Mavis and Derek were so so funny. Thelma Barlow is a ridiculously underrated acting genius.

There have been some legendary characters come and go: Ena Sharples, Albert Tatlock, Elsie Tanner, Mrs Walker, Stan Ogden, but I think Hilda is perhaps the greatest.

Wonderful episode Thankyou for uploading gosh how times change an NHS with actual hospital beds, a time where life was so much easier.

Jean Alexander was the best Actress out of all of these.

Jean Alexander was The Street, it was never the same after she left. It then gave way to the young actors and the world changing.... and ridiculous storylines.

Always thought percy fancied hilda a bit

It was nice to see Eddie again back on the street, I think he played a great role and he always had a good giggle with Hilda, He helped her smile and laugh 😆 again when she was feeling down, it was so sad 😭 seeing her leave the street she was a gem 💎 to the street and everyone loved our Hilda ❤❤❤ RIP jean Alexandra ❤❤❤

Thank you so much for uploading these episodes. Corrie at its absolute finest with Rita and Mavis and Bet and Alec. I can't bare Vera's mum though. Always sounds like she's gargling her teeth. Her voice goes right through me.

Good bye wonderful Jean Alexander. Cannot for a minute think of Corrie without you.💐

I can understand why Hilda went to live at Dr Lowther’s. Perhaps Jean Alexander had not yet decided to leave Coronation Street when Tom proposed. I don’t know. After the attack, she admitted to needing to feel useful which was how she had been all her life. In marriage and work. Hilda needed to be needed. After the attack she was lost. A connection had been established with Dr Lowther after the fateful night of the burglary. A positive came from a negative. She would have her reason to get up everyday without being romantically involved, a roof over her head and some income. Proceeds from the house would have provided a nice little nest egg. Hilda was a one man woman which is is so refreshing to see in these modern times where morals leave a lot to be desired. It’s not easy to tune into Jenny’s silly problems in 1988 after saying goodbye.

Hilda was the Queen of the street a brilliant actress in every thing she ever did 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hilda Ogden!...."Jean Alexander "...a queen of an actress...just outstanding!!!! Cheers chook!!!❤🎉

What a great ending for Hilda

Love the Rita/Mavis banter-Rita deliberately missing the point of what Mavis is saying.

Reading through the comments, no one has seemed to pick up on the genius of the writers one last trouble making line from Hilda (albeit innocent this time) to Alec about Bet and Mike just before her farewell 😂 And the writers making out Bet was a slag when she's had about 3 or 4 boyfriends to my memory in the previous 10 years from this channels episodes.

End of an era 😢

hard seeing our hilda like this 😪 then ontop of it that pos trevor thinks it be best she stay home for xmas..he didn't even go and see her after she was almost killed...even though it's just a show theres alot and far too damn many people out there that are just like that trevor

Rita is a legend old Corrie is so much better than the rubbish now

The writers overdid it with Mavis as the 'scarlet woman' storyline, and Thelma Barlow, who's usually excellent, overacted in virtually every scene.

Oh no won’t be the same without Hilda ❤I love love love Hilda

I've binged the lot from the first episode to Hilda singing farewell at the rovers. It's been a delight but it ends here for me. I don't want to spoil things for myself. Thankyou ProfessionalGun 66

I love watching all these old episodes of Coronation Street. Second time around for me but bring back happy memories. Quick question , does anyone know where I can found missing episodes from 1987.

Seeya later Hilda, chook! Xx

Not sure how much more of Mavis I can take.

and so this American sheds a tear as she says goodbye to a legend.

Ty professional gun luv it and a big ty from nz

Thanks Pg-your wonderful. Love these.

I love these old Corries. They were built on strong characters not nasty storylines. I haven’t watched the new ones for many years. Have tried but have had to switch off after only a couple of minutes, they are unbearable now.

Brilliant episodes

So sad to see Hilda go, after just 23 years in the street; but at 2:16:04 - when she spills the beans on Bet living with Mike in earlier years, she tells Alec, "She lived with him at no. 3, you know, for quite some time." If they had, they'd have both been lodging with Emily Bishop. It was no. 5 Mike owned, before selling it to Ray and Deirdre Langton in 1977.

My favourites Mike and hilda Stan Eddie Mike was always kind to hilda

Am I the only one who found the whole Derek and Mavis saga soooo tiresome?

Bet's jumper has more diamonds then the queens coronation robes.....

rita and jenny could nearly pass for mother and daughter . thanks for uploading

Tears of sadness for Hilda leaving , but what a final line saying Bet and Mike lived together at No 3 😂, Hilda lives on. 😂. Tears of laughter at Mavis drunk in Rita’s😂.

Alex takes Hilda a bottle of beer only to return to The Rovers with bottle still in hand. He's so tight 😂

Hildas ducks 🤭❤😊

That Don spoils it for me. He's like a marshmallow.

Very moving.. Not the same after Hilda left.

Oh my god, Mavis is driving me totally mad

Thank you

Aw found that little moment with Hilda and Ivy moving 🥲

I'm at the beginning of the video. I need to know, does Hilda take that lovely cat with her, when she leaves? :)

Mavis the innocent wuss. Derek the devious wuss. Talk about stretchin the ass out of a storyline!

Derek is such a wet lettuce

I never saw Hilda as the moral compass of coronation street….hindsight is 20/20

Jean Alexander was the finest character actress of her era. In her own profession, she was appreciated by Lord Lawrence Olivier, among so many others. I only hope that she remained unhonoured by her own choice; she should have been Dame Jean!

Vera's mother..volume down definitely.

Looks like Mike dyed his hair special for Christmas. Mavis and Derek were so dull.

Sad watching bet when shes slowly fading away poor thing dementia is a terrible thing to have all my love to her husband

Hilda had to have the last say to Alec lol 😂 I just loved her character she was a brilliant actress R.I.P. jean Alexandra, but i don’t know 🤷‍♀️ why Alec is on one with bet, the past is the past get over it Alec, I love ❤️ the old ones of coronation street, and I have many fond memories,

I can't bear Jenny!

All this screaming with Jack, wife and now MIL. It’s awful!

Rita biting her lip so as not to laugh when Mavis says her father always said two-toned shoes were adulterous shoes. Wonder if her parents were like Lord and Lady Whiteadder in Blackadder?

The Cabin, is so budget looking

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNJ1aM6S1cvVh5s.html One of Hilda's best episodes, where she played football.Oct 1st 1969.

Love Bets Cleaning Lady Look 🏚️🍺🍻🥃☕🍾

Don Boring Brenon🥱🚖

Eddie couldn't give Hilda a kiss goodbye 23:34

Mavis and Derek...recycling an already rehashed storyline

I'm about the same age as Sally she was a hottie back then my 1987 self would thinks. lol

Vera's mother could be related to Fred Elliot,i say Fred Elliot😅😅

Derek and Mavis jack and vera and Alec gilroy comedy gold

So does Alan work anywhere? How is he earning $, or is he just living off Rita right now?

Does anyone who was around at the time remember why Eddie disappeared again with no follow up? I know Geoffrey Hughes got cancer at some point. Just wondering if the actor was meant to stay right till Hilda's last scene or if it was always meant to just be a few episodes appearance. Google is no help.

Be kind , rewind.

I missed the episode where the cabin got a coat of red paint🤔 Must have been while I was fast forwarding past the Mavis and Derek farce

It's Onslow And Jackie Corkhill At The Rovers🍻🍺🥃

Why is Vera older than her mother? Horrible casting

That 'End of Part One' card is so depressing. A lonely back alley with a dog. I think it was used in the early to Mid 70's then dropped. Why they decided to re-use it in 87/88 again always puzzled me.

Mavis is most annoying character ever in the street . crying like a baby every minute . dithering at every twist and turn . Rita must have patience of a saint to put up with her every minute of the day in the cabin she would drive a man to drink indefinitely.

Manch, I miss Eddie Yates. I wonder what he’s doing today?

They’re beautiful Percy, just wish that middle one would buck itself up a bit 😂

Noticed that Curly & Martin were well into Hilda’s (suddenly wall-less) parlour at 2:23:25

What happened to mike and susan?

dereks got a touch of hannibal lecter ontop of all that narcissistic autism 😯 what a freak 'i did it to see the look on your face' is too bizarre

I'm finding Sally really grating this month, more than normal 😬

Funny Rita and Mavis chandler and Joey 😅😅😅😅😅 5:25 SU garden

Derek 🤣 @17:54

2:33:56 Rick Astley record playing in the background at Sally's party 😉

"He says: here yar maw, bound to something here nobody else will want 😭" heeee heeee I love Veras mum...the rotton ol bag 🤭 lol I feel delighted when certain corrie street characters are stressed tf out treated like junk 😅

Oh Eddie sally 6:14 never see him before mrs buton oh Vera Burton oh wonderful Jack put her in the jungle 😅😅😅😅😅😅 SU garden

Jenny 🤮

Controversial….but I wonder if the rest of the cast got on with ‘Jenny’ 🤔 ….she strikes me as being irritating and annoying ….and very cocksure 😳

Folk on here give Percy a booting but he was always kind and helpful to Hilda. Think he had a bit of a fancy for her actually. His "attitude" would be more than welcome in the houses of parliament today. Think about that.
