Template:14 July

14th July 1997: The peace of Coronation Street, Weatherfield had been shattered in the summer of 1997 when the Battersbys, a problem family from a Weatherfield estate, were rehoused in No. 5 following its purchase by the council. Aside from shoplifting and attempting to buy cigarettes for the underage Toyah, the lives of the residents of No. 3 and No. 7 were made miserable by the constant loud music. Finally, Curly Watts snapped and barged into the house, grabbed the CD player and threw it out of the bedroom window and on to the street. Les Battersby was not amused and gave Curly a headbutt for the damage caused to his daughters’ property.
