In December 2010 `Coronation Street' will have been on our television screens for an unprecedented fifty years and it's hard to remember the celebrations of 1985 when the programme celebrated twenty-five years of ratings topping programmes.
However that is what this book sets out to celebrate. It is a Who's Who of the characters, events births, deaths happiness and sadness of those years. It gives a month-by-month record of street life - a trip down memory lane.
Whatever celebrations the producers decide on fir the golden jubilee, this book is the definitive detailed record of the first twenty five years.
