Taxi Driver (Episode 2749)

The unnamed Taxi Driver drove Rita Fairclough and Alan Bradley to Weatherfield Registry Office in August 1987. Alan had told Rita that they were attending the wedding of an old colleague but in fact the ceremony was their own, arranged by Alan behind Rita's back as a surprise. She was livid at the deception, refused to go ahead with the wedding and told the driver to take her straight back to 7 Coronation Street.
