Advantages: Are there any? Disadvantages: Poor acting, poor storylines.
As I begin to write this review I am trying to recall the first ever episode I remember watching of Coronation Street, being 27 years old that is a good few years of watching the soap and I really can't remember I do remember some classic episodes with Terry Duckworth and his partner Lisa, Rita in the Kabin and Mavis and Derek oh how there have been some characters over the years and what we have now is not a patch on what Corrie used to be like!
*~*Where it all began*~*
Coronation Street first hit our television screens on the 9th December in 1960, sadly I was not even a glint in my parent's eyes at that time so now in 2009 its safe to say this is one of the longest running soaps in history if not the longest running soap. It is produced by Manchester based Granada who now fall under the ITV branch and repeats on ITV2 at lunchtime ...
Advantages: Exciting storylines and interesting characters Disadvantages: sometimes is a little boring
