First aired in December 1960, Coronation Street is the longest running, most watched soap opera in. Winning numerous accolades, the show was described as ‘the most successful television programme in British history’ by the Royal Television Society, and creator Tony Warren was made an MBE in 1976.

The dramas of Weatherfield’s residents have kept viewers enthralled throughout the soap’s history, and this volume of classic episodes from 2000 to 2009 allows fans to revisit key storylines of the decade.

These include some of the Street’s most explosive events, including the robbery at Rover’s Return, Dev and Sunita’s terrifying ordeal at the hands of ‘Mad Maya’, the murderous campaign of Richard Hillman, and Tracey’s trial. The decade also saw the introduction of the Street’s first regular gay character, and a number of star appearances.
