this is where i come to talk corrie so i'm gonna ignore that nobody else cares about this
so i've been watching coronation street 1977-1979 (and now i'm on 1981) and as i finished the few years of the decade i watched i thought i would do a character ranking, only based on how i felt about them in the 70s and not anything more recent.
(i forgot to rate ivy but REST assured she would be in the love love love category. controversial but i'm an ivy AND suzie birchall stan.)

Roger: What if... I had- I mean Dom had this great idea. How about we do a parody of coronation street and we all dress like coronation street characters. In drag.
Freddie: drag!? That's more up my street
John:....
Brian: that could be fun
John: certainty grab people's attention.
Freddie: I bag Bett Lynch
John: Ena Sharples
Brian: Hilda Ogden
Roger: Great! I'll be Suzie Birchall.
Freddie:... 🤔
John:... 🤨
Brian:... The... School... Girl... 🤨
John: is that Dom's idea too?
Roger:. ... Yes. She thinks it'll be a great laugh!
Brian:... Alright.
Freddie: this is the best idea I've ever heard.
Roger: Thanks. I mean. Dom will say thanks. When I tell her later... 😁
- after the video-
Dom: The video is amazing! You look like you all had fun!
Freddie: oh we did, darling!
John: Well it wasn't terrible.
Freddie: oh ignore him. He's just miffed he wasn't as glamorous as the rest of us.
John: hmph
Freddie: Anyway. Thank you so much for the idea darling! I bet you'll have
Dom: Sorry? What do you-
Roger: Dom! So glad you came, shall we get going?
Dom: oh but Freddie w-
Roger: Yep, time we're off sweetheart. Places to see people to go. See you next week guys. *rushes Dom out of the room, building, whole city*
Freddie:... Well. Alright.
Brian: that was odd
John: Dom's idea, my foot.

QUEEN AS DRAGS: A THREAD
but only on I Want To Break Free video bc yeah ok
Tumblr media
ok, so, the video was originally suggested by Dominique Beyrand - Roger's first wife -, inspired by the Coronation Street novel.
the song was composed by John Deacon (even tho a lot of people think that Freddie wrote it as a way to "assume his sexuality")
so, having that in mind, let's get back to the characters shall we
let me present you to the most gorgeous women in the 80's:
John Deacon - the woman in black who also is really good at disco dance -, as Ena Sharples.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Brian May - the bunny-slippers long-legged girl -, as Hilda Ogden.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Freddie Mercury - the sexiest mom on Earth -, as Bet Lynch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Roger Taylor - don't even get me started on Rogerina's EXISTENCE -, as Suzie Birchall.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
WOOP THERE YOU GO have a great day!
EXTRA: shout out to Rogerina's booty.

So I know Roger's alter-ego in "I Want to Break Free" is called Rogerina, but do the other three have names?
Actually the fans gave Roger the name Rogerina. :D The guys were playing characters from the show Coronation Street:
Roger: Suzie BirchallBrian: Hilda OgdenJohn: Ena SharplesFreddie: Bet Lynch

Day 8: The wonder of blank tapes
Here’s Joe Brown going bonkers over them (two different brands, you’d think they’d have varied that line-up a bit…) The sadly missed Woolies, also endorsed here by a cast of thousands (well, a few) including Don Estelle, Leslie Crowther, Geoff Capes and, if I’m not mistaken, the lovely Suzie Birchall from Corrie.

Wicked London: Sophie Evans and Alice Fearn – Photo Darren Bell
WICKED, the West End musical phenomenon that tells the incredible untold story of the Witches of Oz, is delighted to announce that Alice Fearn (Elphaba), Sophie Evans (Glinda), Bradley Jaden (Fiyero), Melanie La Barrie (Madame Morrible), Andy Hockley (The Wizard), Jack Lansbury (Boq) and Laura Pick (Standby for Elphaba) will head the new London cast from Monday 24 July 2017, joining current cast members Martin Ball (Doctor Dillamond), Sarah McNicholas (Nessarose) and Carina Gillespie (Standby for Glinda).
Alice Fearn (Elphaba) originally joined the London production of WICKED in 2016, as Standby for Elphaba, and will now assume the role. Her previous West End appearances include Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Shrek The Musical, Into The Woods, Les Misérables (also the film version) and The Woman in White. Sophie Evans (Glinda) was the acclaimed runner-up in the BBC talent show ‘Over the Rainbow’ and subsequently played ‘Dorothy Gale’ in The Wizard of Oz at the London Palladium; Bradley Jaden (Fiyero) is currently starring as ‘Fiyero’ on the international tour of WICKED. He previously starred as ‘Enjolras’ in Les Misérables at the Queen’s Theatre; Melanie La Barrie (Madame Morrible) is currently part of the acclaimed Everyman Company at the Liverpool Everyman Theatre. Her West End roles have included ‘Mrs Phelps’ in the original cast of Matilda, ‘Mme. Thénardier’ in Les Misérables and ‘Mrs Corry’ in the original cast of Mary Poppins; Andy Hockley (The Wizard) has enjoyed a long association with The Phantom of the Opera, playing ‘Monsieur Firmin’ at London’s Her Majesty’s Theatre as well as on the UK & Ireland Tour for over 1000 performances. He most recently played ‘Grandpa Potts’ in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at West Yorkshire Playhouse and on the UK & Ireland Tour; Jack Lansbury (Boq) is a graduate of Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts and will be making his West End debut in WICKED; Laura Pick (Standby for Elphaba) appeared in The Sound of Music at the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, covering and playing ‘Maria von Trapp’. Martin Ball (Doctor Dillamond), Sarah McNicholas (Nessarose) and Carina Gillespie (Standby for Glinda) all continue in their current roles.
Current cast members Willemijn Verkaik (Elphaba), Suzie Mathers (Glinda), Oliver Savile (Fiyero), Sue Kelvin (Madame Morrible), Mark Curry (The Wizard) and Idriss Kargbo (Boq) will all play their final performances on Saturday 22 July 2017.
From Monday 24 July 2017, the London production will star Alice Fearn (Elphaba), Sophie Evans (Glinda), Bradley Jaden (Fiyero), Melanie La Barrie (Madame Morrible), Andy Hockley (The Wizard), Martin Ball (Doctor Dillamond), Sarah McNicholas (Nessarose), Jack Lansbury (Boq), Laura Pick (Standby for Elphaba), Carina Gillespie (Standby for Glinda) and Jennie Abbotts, Ashley Birchall, Nicole Carlisle, Nicholas Corre, Conor Crown, Kerry Enright, Aimée Fisher, Joseph Fletcher, Alexandra Grierson, Katy Hanna, Tom Andrew Hargreaves, Olivia Kate Holding, Claudia Kariuki, Will Lucas, James McHugh, Danny Michaels, Ellie Mitchell, Rosa O’Reilly, Matt Parsons, Alex Pinder, Sam Robinson, Paulo Teixeira, Samantha Thomas, Hannah Toy, Russell Walker, Sasha Wareham and Libby Watts.
Acclaimed as “one of the West End’s true modern classics” (Metro), WICKED is now in its 11th smash hit year at London’s Apollo Victoria Theatre, where it is already the 17th longest running show in West End theatre history. The “hugely popular show” (The Times) is a three-time winner of the theatregoer-voted WhatsOnStage Award for ‘Best West End Show’ and a two-time winner of the Olivier Audience Award. The critically acclaimed and multi record-breaking UK & Ireland Tour returns from 31 January 2018, visiting Bristol, Liverpool, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Leeds, Dublin, Sunderland, Southampton, Cardiff and Manchester.
Based on the acclaimed, best-selling novel by Gregory Maguire that ingeniously re-imagines the stories and characters created by L. Frank Baum in ‘The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’, WICKED tells the incredible untold story of an unlikely but profound friendship between two sorcery students. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda The Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
WICKED has music and lyrics by multi Grammy and Academy Award-winner Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, Disney’s Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Enchanted and, for DreamWorks, The Prince of Egypt) and is based on the novel ‘Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West’ by Gregory Maguire and adapted for the stage by Winnie Holzman (My So-Called Life). Musical staging is by Tony Award-winner Wayne Cilento and the production is directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Joe Mantello.
WICKED is produced around the world by Marc Platt, Universal Stage Productions, The Araca Group, Jon B. Platt and David Stone. Executive Producer (UK) Michael McCabe.
Apollo Victoria Theatre, Wilton Road, London, SW1V 1LG
