Do they still have one in place?

I remember there was a TV when the Barlows and McDonalds went on that gameshow (unbeknownst to Karen) and all the residents were watching. I guess it would be a tad oxymoron-ic to have one, but that storyline struck a right balance which I think Corrie haven't since attempted.

I remember when Karl got a big tv for the Rovers and everyone in there was like "LIGHT COME FROM BOX ON WALL! WHAT IS THIS WITCHERY" and tried to burn it or something.

They had one at the time of one of the World Cups, I think it may have been 2002, because they were watching it in a special episode on the night of the final, which I think might have had elements which were either live or else recorded on the day.

I know there was one for the commonwealth games. Norris even got his 5 minutes of fame by appearing on TV but nobody was watching.

I think the last time we saw a TV in the Rovers was Audrey's crossdressing boyfriend!

It sounds like 98! Rita's carbon monoxide poisoning was around the same time.

That t.v. must have had a powerful influence on the customers. Cross dressing and carbon monoxide poisoning. It was the Devils work for sure and they were right to burn it down.

It's better without to be honest, a lot of local pubs make a selling point of not having one.
