Me too! But ive been non stop watching since episode 1 in 1960 Luckily a channel called Auntie Corrie has been uploading the 1st batch in black & white vision Its been amazing watching these really old ones & i was just 7yrs old when the first Corrie was shown. So far its taken me almost 4 weeks constant viewing but its been so wonderful & kept my attention wrapt! Seeing the houses in their origional state with the huge black metal fire range with the fire & various ovens & the dreary wallpaper that stayed up for decades! The camera even pans down the street giving the name of the actors who played the roles at each house There was Stan & Hilda & son Trevor & daughter Irma, Ida & Frank Barlow with sons Ken & David. Then Harry & Concepta Hewitt & daughter Lucille, Albert Tatlock with niece Valerie, Elsie Tanner & son Dennis & daughter Linda. Then, Ena Sharples at the Mission. Where mikes factory is there used to be a store called Gamma Garments where Miss Nugent ( Emily) worked as assistant to manager Mr Swinley The corner shop was 1st run by Florrie Linley ( then Maggie Clegg took over who was Betty Turpins sister) The Kabin wasnt there then but Len Fairclough was & worked in the yard but i cant remember if he lived in the street Alf was also in the 1st ones & a few others whos names escape me And of course Annie & Jack Walker ran the Rovers with teen son Billy I have to admit that by this current batch Dec 1989, they arent as good as earlier ones & i feel this lot is the coming end to the golden years of Corrie! I personally stopped watching Corrie on tv in the very early 2000 parts but it was becoming Miserable & the scriptwriters were a new breed & inferior I'll give these uploads till about 1995 then i think i'll call it a day But ive saved all the 1960s & 70s Episodes on file as they are seriously re watchable! There are another couple of channels about but this one Professional Gun 66 & Auntie Corrie are by far the best. Carry on viewing & i recommend the early 60s ( & 70s) they are Marvellous! Regards 🇬🇧👧

Must have brought back memories of when Deirdre was molested under the viaduct in 1977, she attempted suicide on a motorway bridge as a result.

It seems from Dec '88 onwards, Alan Bradley started being a Villain. Mark Eden who played him did an excellent job, because he is in reality a skilled Stage/Screen actor, who was also excellent playing Marco Polo in the 63 Doctor Who, and in The Prisoner episode too. Alan Bradley was the BEST soap villain of all time because he played him like a real person, and not a 'cartoon character' - also the better/skilled/decent/clever writers played a important part too . They preferred quality instead of ratings at the time - such a shame the show has now gone to the dogs compared to the 'Golden Era' of the Podmore years. BTW, I read in his Bio, if Corrie went severely downhill (like nowadays), he would of taken the show off air immediately. I wish someone decent was running Corrie now, but Alan Bradley's daughter is apparently the current Landlady of the Rovers - strange.

Podmore must have been seriously deluded if he really said that. As a mere producer he would have had no authority to take Corrie off air. As ITV's no.1 flagship programme that would have been a decision for the chief executive of ITV. In reality the decision would have rested even higher up, with advertisers and even the government sticking their 2p in as well.

Including Alf, the fella that did her and Terry, a very big favor by not calling in the Old Bill, after Terry broke into his shop and stole 80 quids worth of booze.
