In tonight's episode, what has that aging blonde got to do with Ken & Deirdre? I seem to remember she was someone's mother at The Rovers, but can't remember much more about her.
She was Shelly Unwin's mother, and worked behind the bar of the Rovers between 2003 and 2006, and nearly married Fred Elliot, (I said Fred Elliot.)She also appeared in the Corrie panto
in 2005...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2Gly0yEbaY

And I liked the reference to her playing of the harmonica. I'd forgotten about that, although the OP will probably know more.

"The stresses and strains of Peter's upcoming murder trial prove too much for Deirdre and, in a moment of madness, she takes her anger out on the dessert throwing it at the wall. The blow-up is enough for Ken (William Roache) to suggest that Deirdre gets out of Weatherfield to pay a visit to her friend Bev (the mother of former Corrie resident Shelley Unwin)."

Your impressive encyclopedic knowledge knows no bounds, I am truly humbled! btw:- You can catch up on any Corrie you missed on YouTube...(Just type in the date)
I tried the Youtube search earlier, but maybe I was a bit premature, will try again - thanks.

Her biggest claim to fame as an actress is that she is the first person to speak in the very first episode of One Foot In The Grave.She also appeared in the Corrie panto
in 2005...Christ...I need to get out more!

Claim to fame was probably the wrong phrase.

Lots of references to people and events of the past in tonight's episode - it had me racking my memory, although I'm sure the OP will remember everything. The Barlow family squabble was poor in acting and content.
Norris about Ken and Deirdre's relationship - " It was on and off more times than the light in Beth Tinker's fridge." An old chestnut, but still a good 'un.
