About this episode
It’s time for another classic character profile - though this week, we’re tackling an entire family in one go, because let’s face it, most of them probably couldn’t sustain a whole episode on their own! Arriving on the cobbles in 1974, the Hopkins clan - henpecked husband Idris, long-suffering Vera and formidable matriarch Megan - only stuck around for six months, so what exactly went wrong, and did the show give up on them too soon? We discuss the family’s brief and, at time, chaotic stay in Weatherfield and the continuing adventures of daughter Tricia, who managed to outlast the rest of her relatives and carve out a few memorable stories of her own.
