My latest classic Corrie comedy moment
comes from 1979. It’s a scene in the Rovers focussed around Fred Gee’s new wig.
He’s roundly mocked for the less than flattering hairpiece by Annie Walker and several of the punters. There’s also a wonderful side show of Rita and Mavis
who are propping up the bar, and bickering as always. It’s yet another example
of Classic Coronation Street being more like a sitcom than a drama.
To celebrate sixty years of Corrie I’m
sharing the scenes and moments that
have made me laugh the most.

Thanks for reminding me of these scenes - so funny and painful at the same time. Poor Fred!
