Do you remember the days when Corrie was in black and white, with Ena Sharples in her hairnet?
Everything was aired live so there were no plot spoilers in those days.
Well, to celebrate the soap's 50th anniversary, the British Film Institute are hosting a special screening of the first three episodes of the landmark show.
Coronation Street series creator Tony Warren will introduce the screening at the BFI in London on Tuesday November 9, before a panel of producers and cast from Corrie - which entered the record books this year as the world's longest-running soap - discuss everything about the Street, its inhabitants and its dramas over the last 50 years.
William Roache, who plays Ken Barlow and also holds the world record for the longest-serving soap actor, and Beverley Callard, who plays brassy barmaid Liz McDonald, are hoped to be among the stars on the panel.
Executive producer Kieran Roberts and producer Phil Collinson will join the cast to recount personal anecdotes, examine the influences on Coronation Street, show clips of the panel's favourite moments and discuss how Corrie has changed over the last half a decade.
Introducing the original episodes, which first aired in 1960, Tony will tell the story of the show's origins and run-up to the first live transmission - a milestone in television history.
The panel line-up will be confirmed and updated at www.bfi.org.uk.
We bet William must have a hard time picking his favourite moment after all Ken's got up to in 50 years...
Oh I remember Ena Sharples with her hairnet and half pint of milk stout sitting in the snug with Minnie Caldwell, looking disgusted at Bet Lynch and Elsie Tanner. Happy days.
CORONATION Street is looking for a "psycho" to become the next Tricky Dicky.
Scriptwriters want a new evil character to inject terror and bloodshed into the ITV soap.
The move is aimed at keeping ratings high once the show's 50th anniversary celebrations are over.
The new character will be in the mould of serial killer Richard "Tricky Dicky" Hillman whose murder spree hauled in up to 19million viewers a show between 2001 and 2003.
Last night a Corrie source said the latest maniac will "lurk quietly in the background before causing carnage for everyone."
They already have John Stape, don't need another one :D
John Stape isn't a serial killer. In fact he hasn't actually murdered anyoneQuote:

You are right, I can see him become a serial killer
