The Flying Horse

rdfs:comment

It is close to the Rovers Return in Coronation Street and in the 1970s and 1980s it was usually where the Rovers regulars went when they couldn't drink at their local. The pubs enjoyed a friendly rivalry and occasionally competed in contests, including several Pub Olympics, a tug-of-war in 1967, a football game in 1969, a pram race in 1978, a barbershop quartet competition in 1980 and a talent contest in 1984. The Rovers usually won, only losing out to the Flying Horse in the tug-of-war and the pram race. The Flying Horse is a magazine story illustrated using photographs from the television series.

It is close to the Rovers Return in Coronation Street and in the 1970s and 1980s it was usually where the Rovers regulars went when they couldn't drink at their local. The pubs enjoyed a friendly rivalry and occasionally competed in contests, including several Pub Olympics, a tug-of-war in 1967, a football game in 1969, a pram race in 1978, a barbershop quartet competition in 1980 and a talent contest in 1984. The Rovers usually won, only losing out to the Flying Horse in the tug-of-war and the pram race. The two pubs have also shared staff. In 1970, Rovers barmaid Betty Turpin briefly worked at the Flying Horse when landlady Annie Walker accused her of theft, while in 1989 Rovers landlady Bet Gilroy took a barmaid's position at the Flying Horse when she fell out with her husband Alec Gilroy. More recently, Roy Cropper proposed to Hayley Paterson during a 70s pop party in the Flying Horse's function room in 1999, and a pub crawl on Tyrone Dobbs's stag night in 2009 included a visit to the Flying Horse. The Flying Horse is a magazine story illustrated using photographs from the television series.
