Over the decades Coronation Street has become a much-loved part of the nation's festive fare. In this special Yuletide edition of The Corrie Years, these are the stories behind some of the most memorable plots from Christmas on the cobbles.
From the sad departure of Alf Roberts to the wedding of Claire and Ashley and the recent twist on the greatest story ever told.
Narrated by Katherine Kelly, the documentary features interviews with cast past and present including William Roache, Thelma Barlow, Sam Aston, Jennie McAlpine, Steven Arnold, Helen Worth and Sue Nicholls.

I enjoyed the segments on Alf and the Corrie pantos.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...Alf died on New Years Eve as I recall...
ReplyDeleteLoved Claire and Ashley's wedding, best wedding on the street in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteNick, that's exactly what we said about Alf!
ReplyDeleteAnd once again, it focused heavily on recent years. I can understand how they don't want to put too much grainy b&w footage into the shows, but they showed very brief clips of various Christmas shows from the 70s, any of which would have been far more interested that last years.
