Television programme. Coronation Street I have been watching coro for as long as I can remember and I must say that the latest story lines in general are the worst in a long time. It seems to me that too much attention has been given to the younger audience and not a lot to the fact that the whole family would like to enjoy ...  Read the complete review

Coronation Street is 40 years old and the 5000th episode will be broadcast tonight (Sunday 11th March), and this is a remarkable achievement for any programme. It is amazing when you realise that some of the characters have been there for many of these 40 years, with Ken Barlow being there from the beginning. Rita Sullivan and ...  Read the complete review

For as long as I can remember, 7:30pm has been the time to sit down and watch Coronation Street. Over the years, it has changed from two nights a week to three and now four, to keep up with EastEnders, but Corrie is still in a class of its own in many ways, consistently topping the ratings. I first watched Coronation Street in ...  Read the complete review

Who would think that Coronation Street has been going for over 40 years now? And dear old Kenneth Barlow is still in it! I admire him for that. How the times have changed from the days of Alf Tatlock and Annie Walker behind the bar! There has been murder, rape, divorce, affairs, and Hayley Cropper with her sex change. ...  Read the complete review

I know, I'm a very sad person,.... very very sad,.... but I really envy the folk in Coronation Street. Arguments never last long (except if you're Ken and Mike - and even they had a truce for a while), deaths have little or no impact on the remaining residents who seem to come to terms with their loss in an extraordinarily short ...  Read the complete review

Coronation Street has got to be the best programme on British TV. It’s outstanding acting makes it so realistic (and addictive), and the balance between the old faithful, and the new but as equally talented, younger actors is just right-this allowing the whole family to sit round the old box and watch it. However, they did go ...  Read the complete review

Every morning I get up, get ready and go to work. Then every evening I come home to my wife and children. That’s not so unusual is it? Well it seems to be if you live in Wetherfield. I cannot think of one character in Coronation Street that has a normal job and a normal family. I know that story lines have to be developed in order ...  Read the complete review

.... I'm sorry but as much as sit and watch Corrie - I just cannot get into it. The characters just appear dull and boring as well as the set! It has no flair like that of Eastenders or the outstanding Hollyoaks!! Maybe I'm just two young to appreciate the works of Corrie! Don't get me wrong, the acting is pretty good, better than ...  Read the complete review

First of all, even if you are not a fan of Coronation Street you have be in awe of the fact that this show has been around for 40 years, and still manages to be the sucess and near national institution it it.

Rating:

Coronation Street is one of the longest (if not longest) running soaps currently on TV. The question I ask is why is it still popular. I think the reason for that is people can relate to the residents of the street and the programme is a lot less depressing then other soap currently on the TV. The story lines are sometimes over the top ...  Read the complete review

I watched the live episode of Coronation Street two nights ago, the one everyone had been waiting for for a year. Yes it was good, but I was rather disappointed that it was TOO good. What I mean is with I live episode I, like many others were waiting for the cock-ups and I don't think it would have mattered if there was ...  Read the complete review

There are very few programmes that we can say that we have grown up with, but this certainly is one of them. The characters are amusing, and yes probably predictable! It's a classic show that hopefully will live forever and no doubt our children will grow up watching it to. The story lines are believeable and not ...  Read the complete review

Maybe I'm biased, being from the North, but whenever I've watched it, it's always been the better programme compared to Eastenders, it's main rival. There are a lot of things that make it so. For a start, the storylines have been consistently better over the past two decades, and that record would take some ...  Read the complete review

Coronation Street is the best of the soaps!! It is the only one that makes me laugh, It may not have the most dramatic storylines but it has such good tongue in cheek moments. I think that its story lines can drag on a bit though, and you often wish one would just come to an abrupt end, also it has a tendency to ignore a lot of ...  Read the complete review

I like Coronation Street and I hate Manchester United, so now, every Wednesday for the rest of the football season, I have to wait until 21:45 and even then it's still five minutes later than that. Also, Wednesday is my day for going out (cheap booze and all that) so although I tape it, I don't have time to watch it and if I ...  Read the complete review

What a brilliant soap, I have enjoyed watching this soap for ages. It has started having juicy story lines, like Sarah Louise when she got pregnant. And when Martin had an affair. Poor Gail she’s had a lot to whinge about. The robbery recently was a good episode. The Mike, Linda and Mark triangle has also been good. ...  Read the complete review
