Even Les looked like he felt ashamed for doing this.

Poor Rita, but fantastic Barbara Knox.

I can sympathise with Rita. I was in a similar situation where another party  made up lies about a situation in which I defended myself to try and screw undeserved compensation out of me. The police were certain that I was guilty and conveniently did not look into mitigating circumstances or the fact that I had bruises from where I was attacked. Luckily the courts did not award them any compo and saw through the lies. Its a hard pill to swallow having to say you were guilty and unprovoked because the authorities believe or partly believe a fluff story from someone they consider to be more credible than you.

Bodged up by people who scrabbled through a dustbin if they thought they could make a bob or two out of it such a classic line by Rita and good on her for giving that judge and bench a good rollicking

What the hell is wrong with that male judge, believing a pack of lies without any evidence.

poor rita ilike her she is a good fan

11:54 Rita you dirty mare she probably thought she’d get off doing that 😮

Complete overreaction from Rita for being in jail for 1 night. lol

Rita is not a child beater because she got a shop to run and she is really good person looking after comsters

Poor Rita

Gosh that main male judge is so patronising and rude I think.

she should of said sorry gone to the Rovers and Glassed ciler

Aww I hate it when Rita cries😢

I do wonder how Barbara Knox's real life court case went compared to this? Only saying this because I have no interest in soaps but my paternal grandmother has been an Corrie addict since it's started.

Corrie at its finest. Love this clip, very funny. Thanks for uploading

Why did Rita have to keep talking?! Cilla was asking for £3000 out of court and Rita had to pay £500! Unfair, maybe, but better than paying £3000! I'd pay that just to get them to shut up and leave me alone. I'd call that a win! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Pls part 4?!

Ps. Long term fan.

Wasn't worth the effort for £500

12:24 - I remember watching this scene as a teenager and thinking how remarkably similar those cells were to my school changing rooms. Very bad memories!
