Anne Kirkbride's funeral took place yesterday, Tuesday 27 January.

It was a small, private funeral and some of the Coronation Street cast attended.

Filming on the Coronation Street set was halted.  Floral bouquets have been left at the site of the new Coronation Sreet set in Manchester.

    RIP Anne.
    I do hope the writers give Deirdre a fitting exit storyline.
