Irene and Thelma first worked together in rep at the Liverpool Playhouse in the 1950s. Irene and Thelma would later reunite on screen in Coronation Street and Doc Martin.
Coronation Street ~ 13th June 1973. Mavis starts work at The Kabin.
The newspaper clipping in the photo is from The Manchester Evening News, 11th June 1977.
#OnThisDay in 1977: Doris is awarded the MBE in the Queen's Birthday honours. She collected the award at an investiture at Buckingham Palace on 29th November. #DorisSpeed
I've often wondered where the birth certificate claim, re Doris Speed and her 'real age' came from. I guess now we now. It was from the Daily Star, 8 October 1983. Knew it would be from a ghastly newspaper.
40 years ago today, The Mirror boasted they had uncovered Doris Speed's real age and gleefully reported on it. Callous. Doris was ill in hospital, and had done nothing to hurt anyone. It really upset her and she never returned to Corrie. The Stage condemned it a few weeks later.
Coronation Street - 6th June 1977. Annie gets into the role of Queen Elizabeth I.
Coronation Street ~ 2nd June 1969. Maggie takes Betty into the Rovers where Jack finds out she's an experienced barmaid.
Coronation Street ~ 2nd June 1969. Betty is impressed with the corner shop but Maggie grows concerned when she says that she's come to look after her.
This was brilliant. Doris Speed had been Annie on a different set in different times (1960-1983), but as soon as she got behind that bar she was the landlady again! Legend! 😍
#OnThisDay in 1988: Doris returned to the Coronation Street studios five years after her retirement to accept a cheque from Barclays Bank as part of the ITV telethon fundraiser. #DorisSpeed
@DorisSpeedFans Annie! This is beautiful - a sweeping conquest, delivered with such finesse! Ernest was right - the Armada wouldn't have lasted five minutes! 😃
@DorisSpeedFans That is amazing!
@DorisSpeedFans Only Annie could effortlessly bring the word "deportment" into a conversation with Hilda.
Coronation Street - 30th May 1977. Annie tells Ernie that she has got the brewery to provide a lorry for the float, on the condition that she plays Queen Elizabeth I.
Coronation Street - 30th May 1977. Ernie tells Annie that she can't be Queen Elizabeth I.
Coronation Street - 30th May 1977. Hilda tells Annie who she wouldn’t mind dressing up as for the Silver Jubilee float.
