Corrie memorabilia found by fan

Coronation Street fan Martyn Hett is the creator of The Audrey Roberts Noise.  He's also had an iconic image of Deirdre Barlow tattooed on his leg

Martyn has given us permission here on the Blog to share with fans these amazing pictures.  The pictures have come from a friend of Martyn's mum who's father recently passed away - and he used to work on set design for Coronation Street.

This photograph of the cast attending a party(?), Martyn thinks might be from 1986. Look how glamorous Eileen Derbyshire is in this one.
 
 This picture is the front of an invitation to attend Coronation Street's 16th anniversary party in 1976.

And this is the reverse side of the invitation.. RSVP to Bill Podmore, who was then the Coronation Street producer.

What amazing Corrie memorabilia this is. Thankyou so much to @martynhett for sharing it with us.

  1. Seeing as Doris speed left corrie due to ill health in 1983 and was reported to be in a nursing home i would have thought this was pre-1983 but it looks like sue jenkins who played gloria todd is at the back and she didn't join until 1985.

  2. Doris did return for a number of anniversaries including the 30th in 1990.
