The Royal Mail has unveiled a new series of stamps to mark the 60th anniversary of Coronation Street.

Characters featured on the stamps include: Ena Sharples and Elsie Tanner; Stan and Hilda Ogden; Vera and Jack Duckworth; Deirdre and Ken Barlow; Rita Tanner and Norris Cole; Hayley and Roy Cropper; Sunita and Dev Alahan; and Tracy and Steve McDonald.
Each stamp also comes with a quote that “converys the essence of each relationship”, the Royal Mail said in a statement.

The characters featured on these four stamps are Bet Lynch, Raquel Watts, Liz McDonald, and Gemma Winter.
