Pic: Coronation Street barmaids - how they are now


Flitting around th'internet looking for pictures of the wonderful Suzie Birchall, as you do - well I do anyway, I came across this fabulous photo of a whole bunch (is that the right collective noun?) of Coronation Street barmaids as they are now. It appeared in The Sun in 2010, in the run up to the 50th anniversary and the article also contains a few quotes from the actresses about their time pulling pints in the Rovers. How many do you recognise?

There's a key in the bottom right hand corner and if you go to The Sun's website, it will tell you who is who.

  1. I would never have recognised Irma Ogden or Doreen Lostock. I did wonder if that was Suzie Birchall. How come Julie Goodyear didn't make an appearance?! And I notice Doreen Keogh's not there either. But it would be hard I guess to include 50 barmaids behind the bar. Great pic though! :)

  5. You are right, this is a "doctored" photo, I thought it looked a bit odd, like they all look like they did when they were behind the bar, when 20 or 30 years have passed for some of them!
