Irene "Renee" Roberts (née Bradshaw) was the owner of the Corner Shop from 1976 to 1980. She was the second wife of Alf Roberts and sister of Terry Bradshaw. Renee's purchase of the shop in 1976 came as Terry returned to his native Weatherfield after being brought up in Lancaster. Renee wanted to keep a close eye on Terry but put her stamp on the shop, making changes including opening on Sundays and gaining an off-licence, ruffling some feathers amongst her Coronation Street neighbours. Renee married Alf Roberts in 1978 and over time Alf became more involved in the business, and eventually bowed to pressure from Renee to sell up and buy a bigger shop in the country. In 1980, while the Roberts were out celebrating the sale of the shop, Renee's car stalled at traffic lights and a lorry crash
