It is amazing how many of the Corrie kids have either stuck around for the duration (aka Jack. P. Shepherd) or have come back (Tina O'Brien, Sally Anne Matthew, Georgina Taylor and Jane Danson, etc.)

Anne Kirkbride was so, so warm. You can just tell

So many faces I remember from when the original characters were played by other actors before the roles were recast and changed heads. Remember watching this when it first aired and nice to reminisce, thanks for sharing and taking me down memory lane.

Leanne: I had to wear some awful clothes. Steve: I had to wear some awful clothes. Toyah: I had to wear some awful clothes. Jenny: I had to wear some awful clothes. I think they might have some horrible clothing choices.

I’m so glad Sarah was recast, the old one doesn’t hold a candle to Tina O’Brien. Same with Tracy.

Thank you for this upload!

Cheers for this, I haven't seen it all the way through! Xx

Thank you for sharing this

I can’t see the name Candice without hearing “CandEESE” 😂 We don’t pronounce it like that here, it’s so fancy and pretty!

All that time that Tracy spent upstairs playing her tapes weren't entirely wasted. She was secretly practicing for her current job as a DJ!

Joe Gilgun has done so well since his time in Coronation st. Great actor.

Watching in 2020 when the actor who plays tract has changed

Liz McDonald’s most said line : “WhErE aRe YoU gOiNg??

The moment Dawn and Anne reunited was heartwarming.

Sarah was recast simply because the original wasn't an actress, had barely spoken a word in all the years she'd been in, and because they wanted to develop the character and make her pregnant, so they needed an actual actress. Plus, as Sarah was only 12, they needed someone over 16 to work adult hours. So 17 year old Tina got the job.

Chesney was sos cute back then, so happy he's still on the street

Thanks for the upload. X

Jamie Armstrong was terrific, It's too bad his actress mum was so bad, he had to go as well. I loved Dawn Acton as Tracy. Toyah and Leanne cracked me up when they first came on the show, they were trying so hard to be tough and angry teenagers.

Ahhh memories, I always loved Jamie he was so funny and a fantastic actor. I'm watching him now on classic corrie on ITV player.

Started watching Coronation Street while I was a Nanny in Laronge, Saskatchewan1989 I would sometime watch in the 1970's on Sundays when there was nothing on TV...my family is from Scotland so I understood what they were saying...lol Pint please!

Miss Anne so much she was the best one out of the whole cast back then RIP ❤️💙

I didn't realise Joe Gilgun was in Coronation Street, but of course I know he was in Emmerdale for years. Here he looks like his older self 37:24 with that characteristic expression.

31:20 In the episode prior to Davy’s appearance Ena Sharples declares that “she’ll have none of his monkey business!”. Some things are just meant to be.

😍😍😍 lol I forgot it was Cheney/Sam who said, “it’s pouring down with rain” lol I usually say that line whenever it’s raining 😆

This was a good show in the 60s and up to the 90s .

The former Tracy actually looks like Deirdre

busteds what i go to school for playing in the background 😂

Jack P Shepherd was a better actor at 10 years old than Ken Barlow ever will be.

Toyah looked amazing and still dose

Funny how fashion comes around. Those 90’s clothes that Leanne & Toyah are slating in 2004 don’t look too different to what young people are wearing now

So interesting! Do a new one, like with the Flanagan- twins- Hope and Joseph . From NZ Xxx

It funny seeing them talking about bethany as a kid she returned and left as a adult

Wow didnt know Nikki was in Corrie before, she's in Hollyoaks now

Who’s watching on joe Gilgun birthday 2020

Aww little Chesney was adorable!!

The actor who played Ade Critchely works as a secondary school teacher I read somewhere, also Warren Jackson was plagued with drink and drugs problems for years after the show and in interviews he still said he drinks alot. Apparent footage of him smoking meth [i think] was leaked to the tabloids remember. Chloe Newsome who played Vicky Mc Donald ws working in offices between acting jobs after she left.

andrea young is now my drama teacher at pqa❤🎉

It's a wonder Gail and Martin didn't come to reunite with Nick and Sarah actors and little Jamie character was like a grandchild figure to Jack and Vera so they should have come to see him. Also Jamie character had alot of scenes with Deirdre too who always babysat him so wonder odd there was no interaction.

At 27:33 what episode is that when Sophie kicked David then he pushed Sophie off the chair???

I wonder where the first Rosie and Sophie are now? I'm surprised they were never mentioned in this, Sally was always sending them upstairs 😂

20:50 xD I remember that advert well

Here's another fun fact. Olivia Newton-John was supposed to be in a UK Version of The Monkees called Toomorrow but they didn't go far but she would later win a Daytime Emmy for writing a Love Song for Lily & Holden on As The World Turns. Jeff Barry who Co-Wrote A lot of Hits for The Original Girl Groups from the Ronettes (Be My Baby), The Crystals (Da Do Run Run) and The Dixie Cups (Chapel Of Love) originally done by The Crystal Co-Wrote I Honestly Love You with Peter Allen.

Never realised that Eli Dingle was originally in Corrie!

These Kids in their own way were very lucky because when it comes to a US Soap Child He/She are only on during Summer or Holiday Time. Also sometimes they get too comfortable then they get called into the Office and find out they are being let go. Bryan Buffington who played Harlan Billy Lewis III aka Bill on Guiding Light from 1989-1998 found that out the hard way. So did his former Co-Star Rachel Miner (Michelle Bauer #2) aka The Former Mrs. McCauly Culkin. I told US Soap Opera Fans about how alot of Soap Stars became Pop Stars and vice versa. They were impressed.

Matthew Kelly has such a puffy camp voice.

These Guys were very lucky. If it were an American Soap they would have been the Victim of SORAS (Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome). They send the child to Boarding School and they come back all grown up. I told UK Soap Fans about it and they were in stiches. Nobody sends their Child to Boarding School because they can't afford it.

Fiz has to be the most annoying human being ever

What Channel was this on? Since this was taped 15 (Almost 16) Years Ago. If you don't Mind me asking.

I cant believe Nick is the same age as my daughter he looks much older.

Andy and Steve were TROUBLE!!!

Joe Gilgun was also on Emmerdale playing Eli Dingle

What episode is it that Leanne slaps Nick? It's at 27:47

These guys were very lucky because if it were The US they would have been SORASED (Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome). They send the Child to "Boarding School" then they come back all grown up like Nick Newman on Y & R. When he came back from Boarding School in Switzerland in 1984 he was 18. From 1975-2009 here were Four Actresses who played Blake on Guiding Light. Then if you think that was surreal look at Don Hastings & Eileen Fulton who from 1960-2010 worked with 13 Actors who played their Son Tom on Guiding Light's Sister Show As The World Turns. I was blown away that Kimberley Walsh auditioned to play Maria but she was lucky.

No mention of the original Coronation Street kid, Lucille Hewitt, played by the tragic Jennifer Moss.

Could I use this vid please xxx

That intro was filmed on a fridge

Hi Sonja here please bring Bruno Langley back

Lynsay King is marvellous in 1995 Classic Corrie on ITV3.

I really want to be an actress and I have always wanted to be, and I want to be on Corrie but the only way I will (if I have a chance) is if I’m a platt,😂 they are my fav family on the show.

Snog was such a 90s to early 2000s word. Snogging Snoggin fancy a snog???

So Sarah Lou is working in Gregg's.

6:25 the music

I met the real Fiz in real life 2008 South Shields she was opening Poundland in my birth town me and one of my mates who happens to resemble Michael McIntyre said it’s her off Corrie I was like Jenny can I have a photo please

It's really weird seeing Woody before This in England 😂

I can't help but wonder which younger cast member stabbed Julie Goodyear in the back when they sold stories to the tabloids.

Tyrone is cute ❤️

Leanne the sassy queen or spice girl should we say

I'm sure Davy Jones passed away in the usa

Marcia Brady had a crush on Davvy Jones. Love the kids' scenes!

Does anyone think that the original actress who played Tracy looks similar to Kym Marsh

ooh the cgi in that opening was so bad

The current Nick Tilsley looks quite a bit like Warren Jackson!

Who was Sarah at the beginning

RIP Davy Jones

Must be a bit confusing for the “parents” when their “children” are recast! When Anne Kirkbride died, were all four Tracys present at her funeral? One daughter in four bodies! As for the three Nicks and two Sarahs …?

Les ? Edit; I was right. Go me ! 😂

Carol Godby was on Wife swap UK!

oh dawn we told you to go

So weird to see a different Tracy so freaky!!!

How come I never seem this? 2004 I been 15

Davy Jones died far too young. R I P

Young nicks fit

Oh Davy :(

Men on chain gang

Music

Nobody searched for this

27:18

Remember all these kids, some of the ones today are good, some really bad Jack Kevin's son just now is rubbish. No way will he ever be an actor, sorry.

M

dont be stupid ah ha

Sam move out

The majority of these 'actors' come across as very arrogant 😏
