Product Description
Coronation Street first hit British screens at the end of 1960, a groundbreaking show based on real life and using accents that had never been heard on British television before. It was an instant hit, and has remained consistently one of the UK's most popular shows ever since. The joy of Coronation Street is in the quality and humour of its writing, and the wonderful characters that have been created over the years. For the first time, here is a book that not only reminds readers of all the storylines over the last fifty years, but also celebrates these two very special things. The book includes profiles of fifty Coronation Street icons - from Ena Sharples to David Platt - and the author has had unprecedented access in order to include interviews with all of those still with us. There are also hilarious extracts from the script and classic lines remembered. FIFTY YEARS OF CORONATION STREET is the only official book celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of Coronation Street. It is the definitive book on five decades of life on the Street and no fan of the show would want to be without it.

Fifty Years of Coronation Street,
This review is from: Fifty Years of Coronation Street (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful book. It exceeded my expectations. The photos are wonderful and brought back some great memories.I grew up in England and saw the very first episode of Coronation Street, needless to say I watch it or record it every day. So happy to have found this treasure. It is "coffee table" sized book and therefore I shall leave it out for my friends to enjoy. Cheers,

I gave this to my parents as a gift and they loved it. They went through it for hours on the first night all smiles, enjoying all the memories. I know nothing about the show :) but they seemed to really appreciate it. The picture quality is great and the book is very thorough through all the decades. Every page is different.
