I never realised that Blanche was played by two actresses.
You have all either got memories like steel traps, or books. ;D

Bobby.
I've seen a clip of Patricia Cutts. But, having seen her in Spyder's Web, Maggie Jones is better.

Me neither. Maggie's brilliant. Wasn't she actually 2nd on the list after Patricia Cutts?
Ooh, another question. Um.... Okay. Nick said it was his Dr Who question of the day. Here's a tricky one. Which Corrie star played Mary Ashe in Colony In Space?

Like Jon Pertwee was on the list of actors to play the 3rd Doctor. Good. It's Dr Who day! And several Corrie cast, past, present and guests, had been in it.  Dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum, woo-oooh, ooooo-ooooooooo. Yes, I'm quite mad. But you knew that already, didn't you, Jezziekins? ;D Patsy |

Yes. When a friend of mine was last visiting from Scotland, I was watching Corrie and he went, "It's Mary Ashe". That was when he wasn't going, "Is that Egrorian?" LOL!

Me neither, Nick, though Paul's a lovely bloke. I met him at Stockton in November. Have you seen the DW board in Other soaps and TV? So this is the 8th Doctor really. ;D I pre-ordered that crap from Dominitemporal so saw it before it was on TV. Flipping nerve of them when it aired dedicating it to Jon's memory!
Let's have Corrie/DW questions just for today to celebrate this monumental occasion.
