In praise of Corrie's Battleaxes


News today is that Maureen Lipman is returning to Coronation Street. This time, she'll play Tyrone's battleaxe gran. 

Ah, the Battleaxe.

A much-missed staple from the Street for too long. 

Let's play homage to that most endearing of soap women and take a look at some of our favourite battleaxe blog posts - a real blast from the past!

Yes, we DO need a new battleaxe! But I'd love to know how long Ms Lipman has signed up for. I fear that, like Stephanie Cole as the excellent Sylvia Goodwin, her stay will not be a lengthy one.

Battleaxe needed but I'm not sure that this is such a good idea. We'll see. I hope it works.
