The episode in which Hilda Ogden left Coronation Street, on Christmas Day in 1987, attracted a record-breaking 27 million viewers.
The character, who was married to Stan (Bernard Youens), was known as an enthusiastic gossip with a tendency for malapropisms, most memorably her treasured "muriel" - her wall decoration.
