Corrie at 60: We meet Street Original Philip Lowrie who played Dennis Tanner
Show Notes

He was in Coronation Street from the very beginning. Phillip Lowrie was Dennis Tanner, Elsie's unruly and wayward son. He started as he meant to go on as his mum accused him of stealing money from her purse in the very first LIVE episode. Phillip - a bit of a heart-throb at the time - became a household name overnight as Coronation Street was an almost instant hit. He stayed for 8 years and then returned an amazing 43 years later. He's been reminiscing with MIM's Ashley Byrne.

The Distinct Nostalgia theme is owned by MIM Productions and composed by Rebecca Applin and Chris Warner.
