Deirdre Barlow: Queen of Coronation Street

(This post was originally posted by Flaming Nora on the Coronation Street Blog July 2013, reposted to this blog with permission.)


If Corrie had its King Ken, then Deirdre Barlow arise, for you are our new Queen of Coronation Street. How good has Deirdre been in the last few weeks with no Ken to hold her back?

Last night, throwing Rob and Tracy out of the house and then dishing up advice to Carla: "Just think of me as Switzerland in glasses", Deirdre really shone. And she rescued Roy from the Red Rec last week: "I thought it was one of them nutters but then I thought, hang on, no, I know this one!"

Anne Kirkbride is an absolute joy to watch as Deirdre and while Ken's away, let's hope Deirdre gets a chance to shine up her jelly mould and play her harmonica with pride.
