Video: Beryl Bainbridge in Coronation Street

The British author Beryl Bainbridge has died today.

Older fans of Coronation Street may remember she once appeared in an episode of Corrie, back in January 1961. She played the part of Ginnie, an anti-nuclear power demonstrator and she's pictured here on the right, holding the Ban The Bomb sign.

Watch her via the wonder of YouTube here.

  2. Ah...'spotty' Ken :) still being misunderstood by the womenfolk.
    I'm not familiar with the Beryl Bainbridge, but it was nice to see David Barlow again; how things have changed, just imagine having been "Ken" for 50 years.
