Rita Tanner! It can't happen surely? He's either going to change his mind (Or she is) or they are going to kill him off.
Incidently did any one else hear the football commenter in full flight commenting on a match say "And there is Sally Webster in the crowd"

I have mentioned this on another thread (how sad am I!). Rita was once married to Len Fairclough who had the hots for Dennis's mother, Elsie, so yes, it doesn't sound right.
Oh, bugger! Just clocked your avatar!

So now you know why I don't like it!!

Where Ena goes Elsie follows.
I can just imagine the look of disapproval on Mrs. Walker's face, not to mention Ena, Minnie and Martha.
I thought it strange too - he seems the next generation down from Ritas age but don't think he is in real life!
Quite, Anne

Was Eileen Grimshaw a relation as that was Elsie's maiden name?
I know it's not real!
Dennis is 70 next month in the soap

The actor who plays him, Philip Lowrie is 75 (looks good for his age!)

i believe that there is a family connection between Eileen and the Tanners, albeit a number of times removed. Can't remember the episode in which it was explained.
Dont know who is what age and who is meant to be what age, all I know is that Dennis looks a lot younger than Rita
Question Author
just done a bit of digging. In the programme Elsie would be 89 if still alive.
Rita is 80 and Dennis is 70 next month. So Rita has a toy boy!
Re Sally Webster, it was Everton v Spurs. I presumed she was a guest of Bill Kenwright, maybe friends from his days in Corrie?

Hi Sipowicz, It really sounded strange when I heard it. It was mid commentary and he did not break stride, it all just flowed, I couldn't believe what I had heard. It also proved that he was not commenting on the play in field but play on the tv screen that flashed her face on screen.
But in real life, there's only three years difference in their ages 75 and 78.
