ANNIE WALKER OUT OF THE STREET
TV's #CoronationStreet lost a third star last night - Annie Walker. The prim, posh landlady of the Rovers Return is being written out because the 70-year-old actress #DorisSpeed is unwell . . .

A line fluff from #DorisSpeed sees Annie Walker refer to "the coss of a toin" following a football match featuring none other than Betty Turpin and Hilda Ogden in #CoronationStreet.
