About this deal

Meanwhile, Mavis is the only member of the holidaying party to pull as she snogs a waiter by the name of Manuel after telling him that, unlike Rita, she swallows. Meanwhile, Gail rejects tradition and invites a poet round for an intellectual education that ends on a sour note, despite the fact he professes not to like chins. Something of a minor miracle it’s survived, but the first pilot serves as a handy introduction to the characters and their respective perversions. Minnie places an ad in the lonely hearts’ column of the local paper and receives an invitation to afternoon tea; Ena reluctantly joins her when the old man who responded to Minnie’s ad brings his mate along - or is it his donkey?

Alf’s latest brainwave to woo Maggie round to his way of thinking is met with hostility, though Maggie tells Elsie she hasn’t rejected Alf outright, merely his intended employment of chutney or chili sauce. Maggie's son Gordon (who is actually the illegitimate offspring of her sister Betty Turpin) is rarely seen, spending most of his time plotting how to become Chairman of Everton FC. Next door to Minnie Caldwell's home is a mysterious gap in the street filled by a park bench, but next to that is the home of 'ugly reptillian bastard' Len Fairclough.

there was also one video which pretty much repeated the 'everyone in power is a nonce' conspiracty theory word for word from the David Icke forum thread about that which I was reading at the time. With concerns over the barmaid’s ‘masculinity’ confirmed as Len confesses his indiscretion to Annie, the Rovers landlady sacks Bet from the Rovers. Ray’s amorous ambitions are thwarted by Billy, who cops off with the ‘escort’ after being rejected anew by Deirdre, whilst Hilda acquires a virgin admirer and Ken gives Bet a stiffie. Although the series quickly developed a cult following with its unprecedented swearing and hip cultural references (Steve Hillage of Gong was said to be a fan), those whose listening habits wore slippers were largely as appalled as renowned moral crusaders like Lord Longford and Mary Whitehouse.

And, if nothing else, I now know from personal experience that cancel culture is not some right-wing fantasy; it’s for real, alright. Beato correctly pointed out the absolute pittance of royalties Henley could claim should anyone dare insert fifteen seconds of ‘Hotel California’ into a video would be something to put Spotify to shame – a handful of cents at the most. The Rovers’ band play together for the first time - Billy and Ken on horns, Alan on guitar and Ernie on piano; they have a crack at ‘Theme One’, though Ena Sharples isn’t impressed. Jerry is irate with Len and Ray’s slack attitude towards the cost of living, especially when they bemoan his reliance on supermarket own-brand produce; Langton, meanwhile, has his plans for Lorraine disrupted when Billy gate-crashes his stint as DJ during her and Lucille’s go-go rehearsal. I am from the same location and background and using and hearing adult language every other word is as natural as breathing.

Rick Beato, an American record producer with an informative and engaging YT channel, recently issued a video in which he berated Don Henley from The Eagles for whining over ‘loss of earnings’ due to fans sharing snippets of Eagles tracks on YT. Following the abrupt disappearance of the ‘Buggernation Street’ back catalogue from YouTube, a special mini-episode of the series has been produced as a response to the outrageous expulsion of this national institution from the premier platform for online videos. BUGGERNATION STREET is permanently trapped in a perpetual Northern England of the mid-1970s, somewhere between 1973-76. Billy is determined to ban Stan from the Rovers after the bogs are blocked again, though Len’s reluctance to attend the kangaroo court lead some to suspect one of his own ‘legendary logs’ may have been responsible for the blockage. Albert keeps reminding Ena and Minnie that he’ll be spending Christmas Day alone with a tin of pork luncheon meat and wears them down to the point where they capitulate and invite him for Christmas dinner.

Granada Television sought to hitch a ride on the permissive bandwagon and transmitted the pilot episode of a new serial scheduled to air in a twice-weekly slot after ‘News at Ten’. Meanwhile, Annie decides to belatedly acknowledge Mavis’s recent crowning as owner of the Worst Tits in Weatherfield, and Alf is disappointed by Maggie’s response to his suggestion they employ chutney to freshen up their sex life. The Street is emptied of residents following a suspected gas-leak, but the stink from the drains turns out to be a discarded blow-up doll dumped by Len months before. Gail and Tricia visit Albert Tatlock in the hope of scrounging a few quid, but find themselves subjected to a unique form of torture as the old git bores them rigid with tales of all the battles he’s taken part in.Stan tips-off Ray that a new nightclub on the eve of opening needs some last-minute plumbing in the hope it’ll make them all square; whilst there, Oggy encounters his perfect woman, who happens to be as thick as pigshit. Ken is pompous and patronising, an affliction that ended his marriage to his second wife Janet after just one episode, though he still attracts the eye of unattached females in the neighbourhood and occasionally rapes underage girls.
