Coronation Street is one of the longest running TV programmes of all time.

Created by Tony Warren in 1960, Coronation Street is one of the longest running TV programmes of all time.

It follows the ups and downs of life on a typical cobbled street of terraced houses in a fictional northern town called Weatherfield, located in Greater Manchester.

For the first episode of Coronation Street, creator Tony Warren drew from real life to create memorable characters, setting a template for the hit TV show for the next five decades.
