Being a fan of Coronation Street for almost 40 years...i was also employed by Granada TV on the tours in Manchester...and at the World Of Coronation Street Exhibition at Blackpool; i have also purchased various episodes from ITV that are not commercially available.Eps inc;13, 14, 15, 25, 983, 987, 995, 999, 1518, 1519, 1655, 1657, 1768, 1794, 1795, 1907, 1908, 1910, 1931, 1932, 1934, 1941, 1942, 1966, 1967, 1982, 1983, 2174, 2333, 2348, 2349, 2353, 2354, 2516, 2517, 2531, 2588 and 2935.I have vast amounts of original memorabilia; especially of my favourite character of all-time Ena Sharples[ Violet Carson OBE]; inc; Signed photos, letters, magazines and still images...!

By far my favourite episode of the 1970s...is EP 1710;Silver Jubilee 1977....favourite EP of the 1980s is...EP 2631;Rovers Fire 1986...and PICTURED[ Bet saucily winking...] is the favourite of the 1990s;Bet and Raquel's drinks party 1994/EP 3756....the 2000s is EP 4745b; Raquel and Curly two-hander = Ep only featured these two characters in an emotional brief reunion; 2 Jan 2000!

The 1960s favourite Episode....? well i have to admit the Silver Wedding of Jack and Annie Walker;EP 194;Oct 1962 is the funniest by far...poor Elsie gets trifle spilled down her 'borrowed' frock...and Ena pushes the boat out and wears a glittery hairnet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Sylvesterfan 00:35, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

Annie Walker is definately my second-favourite character after Ena; i have again been fortunate enough to buy all her last eps from ITV; she disapeared from our screens when Doris Speed MBE fell ill in October 1983l.She sadly never returned, but i NEVER stopped missing her...and Bet's salute to Annie; by means of a framed photo of her in the Rovers back room was very apt!!!!!

The latest addition to my Corrie Memorabilia; is a set of FIVE rare TV Cards; featuring Ena, Annie and Hilda etc...!Circa; 1985.

It is exactly 30 years today since my fave all-time character Ena graced the cobbles of Corrie!;2/4/1980-2010.
