This is a list of Coronation Street characters introduced in the year 1966, ordered by their first appearance.
Jackie Marsh is a reporter from the local paper who run a story sympathising with David Barlow's controversial sacking from the Weatherfield football club. She comes to Coronation Street in search of his family to give more insight into his early career and ends up running into his brother Ken. After they spend hours talking, the pair become firm friends, enjoying each other's company so much they meet up again. Their friendship gradually intensifies and before either of them stop to think of their actions, they embark on an affair — despite Ken being married to wife Valerie, mother to his children, at the time.
When Elsie Tanner caught them kissing, she warned Ken to end the affair or she would tell Val. Convinced Jackie was his true love, he freely let Elsie expose their deceit. However, he later decided that he had too much of a good thing going with Val to let it go so easily, and although she briefly left him, the Barlows reunited. Jackie never returned to the Street.
Ernie Mills is a friend of Dave Smith's and regular customer at the betting shop. He appeared on a recurring basis in three separate stints, until February 1966, returning from May to June and again in February 1967.
Fred Nuttall appears as Minnie Caldwell is falling into debt, and puts pressure on her to pay for a coat that she owes him. When Minnie tells him she can not pay up, Fred adds interest to the loan and threatens legal action, but she is rescued just in time when her old lodger Jed Stone turns up and cons him out of his own money to repay the debt.
Joan Corrie is the sister of Emily Nugent who came to Weatherfield to inform Emily that their father, James, has had a stroke and needs care, a responsibility that neither Joan or their two sisters are willing to provide. The news puts Emily in a difficult position as she had only a week earlier accepted a job working at a friend's shop in Majorca, Joan tells her that if she does not take him on, their father will have to go into a care home. After considerable deliberation, Emily scolds her selfish siblings and tells everyone she has decided to go ahead with her original plans to emigrate. The Walkers throw a leaving party for Emily to wish her well in Majorca, but later on Jerry Booth pulls Emily aside to tell her he knows she is actually going to Harrogate to look after her father.
