Celebrating the show’s diamond anniversary, 60 Years of Coronation Street is an exhaustive, compelling and entertaining history packed full of features and long forgotten imagery. This book takes you through every year with a unique timeline that highlights key plot lines and significant production events, woven together with an impressive amount of photography. You’ll discover features on characters, famous actors, royal visits, births, deaths, marriages and murders, accompanied by interviews with key actors, producers and production staff.
A special section on the show’s creator, Tony Warren, details how the programme evolved from page to screen and is illustrated with rare imagery and artefacts from his own archive. Special gatefold pages open out to show how the set has developed over the years, along with the family trees of the major characters so you can see their complex web of relations, from the Barlows to the Platts. This is the most comprehensive and engrossing guide to the UK’s favourite soap ever published!
