The ‘best fight sequence in TV history’ just went viral again and it’s a fabulously funny watch (to the end!)
Coronation Street has had its fair share of feuding and scraps over the years, as you would expect from a show that’s been going since 1960.
There have been proper heavyweight battles between the likes of Ken Barlow and Mike Baldwin and less evenly matched bouts between Les Battersby and Curly Watts.
Twitter/X user Christopher Anstey has shared a classic clip of Nick Tilsley having a brilliantly slapstick brawl with Peter Barlow which he calls ‘the best fight sequence in television history’.
See if you agree.

Girl, this isn’t even the best fight sequence in Coronation Street, have we all forgotten The Diabolical Gail Platt fighting the Righteous and Kind Eileen Grimshaw? https://t.co/jtm1PE1SLv pic.twitter.com/oWEVZfdkEE

Did they have a Bafta for this sort of thing in the old days?
