Eagle-eyed Coronation Street fans spotted a hidden tribute to a soap legend.
Earlier this year, the Bailey family moved to the Cobbles - bringing a whole new level of drama with them to the show.
But with so much change taking place in Weatherfield, Coronation Street producers showed they hadn't forgotten a certain soap icon.
The Baileys have a wall adorned with three flying birds in homage to Hilda’s retro ceramic wall mounts.
Insiders say bosses wanted to remember Jean Alexander, who died in 2016 aged 90, as well as the famous Rovers Return cleaner, reports Mirror.
With one crooked flier - which Jean personally ensured was always on the wonk - the ducks cheered headscarf-wearing Hilda up so much she once described their significance in a poignant speech.
She said: "I’ve come in here more times than I care to remember, cold, wet, bone-tired, not a penny in me purse.
"Seeing them ducks… they’ve kept me hand away from t’gas tap. And that’s a fact."
Husband Stan was less enthusiastic.
The mallards made their last appearance on Christmas Day 1987, when 27 million viewers tuned in to see Hilda depart for Derbyshire, after telling Sally Webster of her ducks: “They’re beautiful.
“I just wish that middle one would buck itself up a bit.”
Jean Alexander played the legendary Coronation Street character for 23 years.
Her sharp-tongued antics won her an army of fans, who were left devastated at her death just days after she celebrated her 90th birthday.
