these are the closing titles, from The first season of Coronation Street, in 1960, complete with the from The North Granada Production endboard at the end.
Watching vintage episodes of Coronation Street is better than todays episodes. Memories should be treasured and never taken for granted. It feels so good to watch the early episodes. Todays episodes are never the same as it was many, many years ago. So many past characters gone but never forgotten. They remain in the hearts of Manchester.
They didn't always use this style, often more traditional rolled credits were employed. I suspect that placing the names over the houses was used when the episode underran and they needed to fill in the time with longer credits.
Saw the first episode and remember being a little confused as there were people on television talking like me, never heard it before and felt immediate connection.Bring back Ena Sharples!!
Only 4 of the main 12 cast members are still alive today (2 of them are barlows) and the other one Linda Cheveski (edit) I forgot Dennis Tanners Actor Phillip Lowe
It's Coronation Street, Jim. But not as we know it. *THE ROVERS RETURN* ...really?! So it HAS had a different name! And wait, what's that little building beside the Rovers?
97channel this is footage of Archie street in Manchester the real street Corrie was based on , I think it was filmed carefully so you didn’t notice when they were using a set but for the credits they used the real street and I think people gave less of a fuck then and just took it for real... definitely merged that image of the rovers into the end though and fuck knows what that building was attached to it lol 😂 I think as the show grew more popular they probably thought they should make it more real and drop the Archie Street footage because it’s so clearly different
GHDmnespafro even though your wrong end of the stick here .... we are talking about THIS image of which you see in the video we know about the other stuff and where ena used to live
GHDmnespafro no need to be sorry 👍🏽 we we were just talking about this particular shot and how they did it and exactly where the rovers and end building were , because the rovers looks attached to the street even though it’s the wrong pub and so does the little building so how was it shot was the point that I was making
