Elsie (Pat Phoenix, right) to Gail (Helen Worth). Recent and current stars, including Sally Lindsay and Kate Ford, reveal what it’s like to work on the show and what it takes to get six episodes a week in the can, and also look back on six decades of Corrie as the women of Weatherfield have shown us how to laugh, cry – and keep the men in their place.

PAUL O’GRADY’S GREAT BRITISH ESCAPE
