Coronation Street viewers step in after Hope tape blunder

Coronation Street viewers relished in a nostalgic moment with Hope and her cassette tape.

The troubled youth has been trying to dig up as much information on her murderer father as possible in an attempt to understand him better. As she forms a misunderstood character in her head, her mother Fizz is trying to cut the behaviour dead in its tracks.

Over the last few months, Hope has found her father's old belongings including a book on her dad's murders and most recently a cassette tape with his voice featured prominently throughout.

The cassette has become Hope's new obsession as she's been seen listening to it on repeat all throughout the day. During a heated argument with her mother, Hope accidentally dropped the tape and thought it had been ruined forever but viewers laughed off the scene as they knew better.

Though the tape itself was removed from the cassette, older viewers bypassed her frustration and revelled in their own nostalgia. Alongside a gif of someone hand rewinding a cassette with their finger, one fan said: "Oh Hope love......If you know you know......."

Another added: "Don’t worry Hope just get yourself a pencil to wind it back in (half of the twitter probably doesn’t know what I’m talking about)." A third said: "I remember the agony of your cassettes being chewed up in your tape recorder."

A final added: "Nightmare! Remember when that happened with cassette tapes - a pencil comes in handy!"

Hope's worries were soon put to bed after Tyrone fixed the tape whilst remaining unaware of what it held. An ecstatic Hope returned to her room for another listen but not before she learned for herself how to mend a broken cassette.
