Coronation Street Icons, to be shown on Wednesday 19 August.
This new four part series narrated by Sally Lindsay looks back at some of the iconic characters who have walked the cobbles over the years.
We’ll celebrate some of the longest serving much loved cast members and chart their character’s journey and find out what the actors themselves think of their time on the street.
The four iconic characters are Ken Barlow (played by William Roache), Sally Metcalfe (played by Sally Dynevor), Liz McDonald (played by Beverley Callard) and Roy Cropper (played by David Neilson).
The episodes will contain archive footage and new talking heads by cast members past and present.
Episode 1: Coronation Street Icons: Ken Barlow
William Roache reveals just what life was like for the original cast of Coronation Street and why Violet Carson was the natural leader. He admits his love for an on screen punch up where he always tries to play it as real as possible.
