April in Coronation Street’s 1986 calendar, featuring a colour photo of Len Fairclough with Rita, at the bar in the Rovers. Slightly behind Rita is an at-peak Mike Baldwin (pre-tie era; very large lapels and pointy collars) who looks as if he may be sucking the edge of Rita’s wig. Also featured are some smaller black and white pictures, with anecdotes.
