Poor Sue Clayton being harangued at the breakfast table by Duckworth-baiting Connie, Duckworth-ingesting Andrea, and the tromboning milkman who got married to Wendy Crozier in Emmerdale. November highlights from the bottom of the pre-86 Corrie barrel. Fred and Eunice in conference at Mrs Walker's back-room dining table.

On this day in 2010, one of the greatest spy shows ever created debuted, #CovertAffairs, created by Doug Liman, Matt Corman and Chris Ord, starring .@PiperPerabo, @TheKariMatchett, @annedudek, @odedfehr, @HillHarper, @SendhilRamamurthy, Nic Bishop, and Peter Gallagher. 😀😍😎
Piper Perabo, starring as #AnnieWalker, a beautiful young spy-next-door, gathers herself in a room that has just exploded in shrapnel and glass on her first day at work at The CIA. Initial stellar cast of one of the greatest spy shows ever made, #CovertAffairs. From left to right: Anne Dudek, Sendhil Ramamurthy, Chris Gorham, Piper Perabo as Annie Walker, Peter Gallagher, and The Kari Matchett as Joan, Annie Walker’s formidable boss and eventual Director of National Intelligence in the CIA. This stellar cast was joined by Noam Jenkins, Oded Fehr, Hill Harper, and Nic Bishop for a rousing five seasons of stellar guest actors and directors, such as Lana Parilla, Richard Coyle, Tim Matheson, Félix Acalá, Renny Harlin, Kate Woods, Elodie Keene, Jamie Barber, and Stephen Kay. 😀😍😎

"Previously overlooked evidence indicates Walker was the first British professional female astronomer who was paid a living wage by an observatory in the UK to chart the stars."

"In April the institute managed to get an asteroid – the AnnieWalker – named after its former employee, and now the organisation is launching a campaign to find a photograph of Walker to hang in the institute and be used in articles to reassert her rightful place in the history of science."

Photo of astronomer Annie Walker needed, to help make her contribution to astronomy while she worked at the Cambridge Observatory (1879-1903) more visible!

Coronation Street’s 1986 March calendar page, photographed with a slight bloom over Bet Lynch’s bosom. Detail of Coronation Street’s 1986 March calendar page, showing Ken and Val Barlow restraining twins Peter and Susan at about seven months’ of age. Val is holding a startled looking Peter, while Susan, nestled on Ken’s lap (mercifully obscuring his crotch area, which can be a minefield in Ken snaps) is giving the photographer a mistrusting side-eyed look of disdain. Annie Walker proffering what appears to be a wicker shopping basket to an unimpressed looking Fred Gee, while Bet Lynch looks on in malevolent glee. Mrs Walker is in a monochrome button through dress with accent collar; Bet has a blouse in floral shades of beige; and Fred is in an open-necked shirt bearing a fine criss-cross detail in brown.
