Ken and Deirdre Barlow have today been immortalised in wax at Madame Tussauds in Blackpool. Ken is propping up the bar in the specially recreated Rovers Return set while Deirdre is sitting at one of the tables, they join other well-loved Coronation Street characters, Hilda Ogden and Bet Lynch.
Their wax figures took four months to create and will take pride of place at the new Blackpool attraction alongside other figures from the world of TV, music and sport. Find out more about Madame Tussauds.

That doesn't look anything like Ken, but the Waxworks next to him standing up, doesn't half look like deidre. it's exceptionally clever how they have even made the Deidre waxworks to put her arms around the real Deidre dressed in green.
The Deirdre neck-stretch - immortalized in wax! :)
Ha ha ha Deirdrie's neck!!!! SPOT ON!
