Graham Allsopp

Graham Allsopp is, of course, the man behind the magnificent Who's Who On The Street website. And as such deserves not one, but two pics in the gallery. Both equally winsome, I'm sure you'll agree!


Hi

I'm Graham Allsopp. I celebrated my first birthday exactly 3 weeks after the Street started, and although I don't remember much of the early years, I suppose I've been watching the Street all my life.

I was born in Stockport (where Weatherfield County play in real life) and have eventually ended up in Sheffield - Terry Duckworth put our double glazing in, and Sharon Gaskell works just round the corner. In real life, I'm chief cartographer at the University of Sheffield.

Playing in the garden one day, I found a HTML seed, planted it on a server, and now it's grown into the Who's Who on Coronation Street website - where you are now !

I also drop in on IRC #coro-street (with the nickname WhosWho) from time to time - usually around 5 - 6 pm weekdays UK time, when I'm just getting ready to cycle home - so I'm normally pulling on all that Lycra (spandex) gear as I'm chatting. Don't get too excited - in winter when I've finished I look like a cross between Roy Cropper and Derek Wilton.

I don't have any really favorite character - but Annie Walker will always stand out as the most perfect Street character, and like most people I have a soft spot for Stan and Hilda Ogden.
