UK TV - Coronation Street to Cyrano De Bergerac Coronation Street is one of the longest running continuing drama series in the world. The focal point of the show has always been the Rovers Return the pub on the corner of Coronation Street and in the shows early years there was a snug bar where Ena and her two friends Martha Longhurst and Minnie Caldwell would hold court. Because the show was filmed as live with minimal rehearsal time and with some of the sets being on the flimsy side the show often had the mickey taken out of it most memorably by Victoria Wood in her Acorn Antiques sketch in her As Seen On TV series. www.memorabletv.com /bfc7.htm   (4520 words)

BBC - BBC Four Cinema - 1984 In 2000 Channel Four broadcast a live play, while Coronation Street also dabbled briefly with the novelty of the live episode. Actors move through 22 sets while the cameras perform a high-speed waltz around the studio to capture the full horror of Orwell's dystopia; filmed sequences are played while sets, cameras and actors are repositioned. Television drama in the 1950s was still, to quote Mike Leigh, "dead from the neck up." Theatrical warhorses were churned out in mannered and unadventurous styles: the revolution that was Armchair Theatre was still a few years away. www.bbc.co.uk /bbcfour/cinema/features/1984.shtml   (408 words)

EXCELIS DAWNS However the decision, be it hers, Magrs' or director Gary Russell's, to play Iris as a reject from the cast of Coronation Street, sacked for being an unbelievable sub-Gracie Fields northern stereotype, who insists on addressing all around her as "chuck", has robbed the character of any chance of being anything other than deeply annoying. In the company of the rather uncouth warlord Grayvorn (Head) and two nuns, he sets out on a quest to find a holy relic, being guarded by a tribe of zombies in the middle of an impenetrable forest. In her appearances in Paul Magrs’ BBC novels, Iris is convinced that the Doctor is secretly pleased to see her, whereas he appears to be at best irritated and at worst annoyed by the character. www.who-central.co.uk /EXCELISDAWNS.html   (680 words)

Guardian Crowned with glory Although Coronation Street first hit our screens in December 1960, its wasn't until the 1970s that it truly began to shine. Production budgets were so scant that most scenes took place in cheaply made sets, in cramped, dank spaces such as Rita Fairclough's stock cupboard or the Ogden's dismal sitting room. With its reliable blend of steely, gobby northern women (Bet Lynch, Elsie Tanner, Rita Fairclough), downtrodden blokes (Stan Ogden, Eddie Yates, Len Fairclough) and its ambling tales of everyday mundanity, Corrie painted a picture of 70s working class life that Britain simply "got". www.guardian.co.uk /print/0,3858,5249825-113628,00.html   (1243 words)

Lambert, Verity The "greatest of all British television drama producers" had dared to set a soap opera in Spain, and filled it with a multilingual array of British expatriates and foreigners far removed from the milieus of either Coronation Street or the BBC's own "quality" soap, EastEnders. "TV Troubleshooter Sets Her Sights on the Eldorado Gang." The (London) Sunday Times, 9 August 1992. A disaster of fully publicized dimensions, Eldorado was only Lambert's second experience with the genre (the first was in the 1960s, The Newcomers). www.museum.tv /archives/etv/L/htmlL/lambertveri/lambertveri.htm   (1243 words)

Amazon.co.uk: Doctor Who: The Master Tin Set - Colony In Space / Time Monster: Video It's a relatively good story, well acted by a supporting cast featuring Eastenders Tony Caunter and Coronation Street's Helen Worth, but like most six parters, does suffer from being a bit padded. The Time Monster is classic Doctor Who at its most surreal, the effects ranging from mediocre to functional, the Atlantis sets surprisingly lavish. The Time Monster was incredibly brilliant with hunky Dave Prowse (also from Hammer's later Frankenstein movies) chasing poor Katy Manning, as well as the Doctor's TARDIS sequences. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005OCTA   (1344 words)

But as management wavered, Warren's producer Harry Elton screened the first pilot episode on TV sets around Granada's Manchester offices. news.bbc.co.uk /1/hi/entertainment/1061044.stm   (1344 words)
