Viewers of Coronation Street were left in tears after Ken Barlow said goodbye to the cobbles after 59 years.
The scene saw Ken left alone with his home of all his life after moving his belongings out into his new luxury retirement apartment.
He is moving to Still Waters with girlfriend Claudia Colby – while his daughter Tracy has bought the number one Coronation Street from him.
And his final scenes proved to be emotional as Claudia gave Ken a minute to say goodbye to the old house.
Shakily, Ken looked around before saying: “Goodbye number one Coronation Street.”

A second said: “Forget the floods, fires, Corona virus…Ken Barlow leaving No.1 Coronation Street is going to upset the balance of The World Face screaming in fear. Thought he’d live there until he was carried out #Corrie #KenBarlow #Legend #PartOfTheCobbles.”
A third said: “Nah. I can’t deal with Ken Barlow not living at No. 1 Coronation Street #Corrie.”

“He has lived on the same street his whole life and in the same house for most of it. He feels that he had a chance to move away with Martha on the barge but he let her go.
“Part of him regretted that. He doesn’t want to make the same mistake again and Claudia is very persuasive.
“Filming that final scene of the episode was very poignant, just Ken and Eccles and the cobbles.”
