Episode Summary

[x] Remove Ad
Life on Britain's most celebrated street continues. Revelations are made public knowledge, as neighbours gossip about one another openly. The Rovers Return at the heart of the community should be a safe haven for all...but it's not. Fights will break out. Affairs will occur. Births, deaths and marriages. All common factors on 'Coronation Street'...

The 1970's were a decade of great triumph for the soap. As Ken Barlow moved from wife to wife, legendary characters like Jack and Vera Duckworth were introduced and found a way into a nation's heart. And the dynamic between Stan and Hilda Ogden was simply unforgetable.

By the 1980's Thacherism had hit the whole of Britain, and with new competition from BBC TV's 'Eastenders', Coronation Street was forced to roll with the times, focusing on the social realism of the decade, and in particular, the effect it had on the people of the time. It was also a decade we bid farewell to Eda Sharples, Hilda and Stan, and other memoriable cast members from the show's past. But in their place came a whole new generation of stars ready to light up our screens...

Featuring unforgetable characters, and some of the funniest dialogue ever heard on screen, it's not hard to see why this show has become such a television institution which millions tune into ever week.
