I'M glad to see a real funny man is coming to return some much needed humour to Corrie next month.

Roy Hudd will take the part of undertaker Archie Shuttleworth who actually fancies Dierdre's mighty mouth mother, Blanche.

How long will it be before his News Huddlines' oppo, the biggest sitcom star of all time, June Whitfield, is called in? She's been around TV and radio all my life.

I'll be glad too when Curlie's new baby grows up. All that crying, even though it is on TV, gets on my nerves.

And another thing about the nation's one-time favourite soap, the new views on the credits make the area look like a model village.
