Coronation Street School, described by author Graham Kibble White as "one of the more unlikely concepts...but somehow it worked" (The Ultimate Book of British Comics, Allison & Busby 2005), told of the adventures of junior versions of all the regular street characters. Young Ken Barlow was head boy, with a magnificent hair and fought for the attentions of Deirdre Barlow with Mike Baldwin while Deirdre Barlow mooned over Ken, Albert Tatlock bored everyone, Bet Gilroy had a leopard print blazer, Stan Ogden and Hilda Ogden rowed, and Eddie Yeats stole everything that was left lying around.
