Life And Times At The Rovers Return

By Daran Little

Central to life in Granada Television's Coronation Street, The Rovers Return has celebrated and commiserated with all who have set foot in the street.

Birth announcements, engagements, wedding breakfasts, and even deaths, have taken place within the walls of this renowned pub, while Annie Walker and Bet Lynch have played host to royalty and regular alike.

This is an illustrated history of the bar-staff, the regulars, the occasional visitors, and all the events - both on and off the screen - that form the distinctive character of the famous hostelry.
