Friends, family and Coronation Street co-stars remembered their late pal Anne Kirkbride, best known for her role as Deirdre Barlow. Anne was a Corrie favourite for almost 40 years. She passed away after a battle with cancer earlier this year. Her nearest and dearest as well as fans of the show took to Twitter to give Kirkbride a send off befitting of a soap queen.
The Corrie cast paid their respects.
Fans also paid their respects to the soap legend.
The memorial service was held at Manchester Cathedral on May 30.
