René Dubois René Dubois was a lorry driver from Charleville who came over to Weatherfield on an exchange with the twin town in November 1973 . By the time of his arrival in Coronation Street , René had already raised a few eyebrows ; Stan Ogden , who was putting René up at No . 13 while Hilda was away , had assumed " René " was a woman , and was pushing the boat out to impress his houseguest . Fully aware that René was a man , Len Fairclough teased Stan by informing him that René was " built like a brickie ' s chicken house " , however Emily Bishop was horrified when Stan told her he was having a woman , fearing it would make the Sunday papers . When they actually met , Stan ' s expectations - and the language barrier - were quickly forgotten as Stan and René discovered they shared passions for driving and knocking back drink , and the conversation flowed easily with each man demonstrating what they were saying with gusto . Stan later introduced René to his favourite place , the Rovers Return , where they met up with the other Frenchmen , Charles Follette and Marcel Lebeque , and René , Stan and Marcel spent the night playing poker in the Rovers back room before continuing the party over at No . 13 . The French returned home the next day . A few days later , Stan got a postcard from René which was intercepted by Hilda . Making the same mistake about René ' s gender , Hilda was alarmed at the mention on the postcard of their night together and a proposal ( which was actually a suggestion by René that Stan come over to Charleville for a visit ) . Despite being told numerous times by the neighbours that René was a man , she didn ' t believe it until she saw a photograph of Stan and René together in the paper . René was Marxist and was described by Alf Roberts as a bigwig in the local Communist party .

This Is Your Life This Is Your Life was a long - running television programme which originated in the United States of America in 1952 . A version began on the BBC on 29th July 1955 and its format of a celebrity being gently tricked into having their life story told in front of an appreciative audience and also being reunited with surprise guests became popular with viewers . When the residents of Coronation Street planned a Christmas party in December 1963 , Myra Booth came up with the suggestion of having their own " This Is Your Life " presentation on one of the residents . The event was planned by Dennis Tanner , Len Fairclough and Albert Tatlock and the people involved in springing the surprise were sworn to secrecy as to who the victim was . As the gathered audience watched in the Mission Hall , Dennis , as host of the evening and complete with his own " big red book " of the story of his subject , walked through the audience , teasing various members that they could be his target , before settling on an amazed Annie Walker . She made her way to the stage where her " years of public service " as the landlady of the Rovers Return Inn were relayed to the audience , most of who knew the story anyway . She heard a recording of greeting from Arthur Forsythe - Jones who she had met the year before in Babbacombe and who had stayed at the Rovers for a couple in weeks in the previous June , had a surprise appearance from fellow member of the St Agnes Amateur Operatic Society Edgar Nuttall with who she sang a duet , disagreed openly with Ena Sharples over the exact date she and Jack took over the tenancy of the Rovers and was delighted to be " reunited " with her children , Billy and Joan . One of the final guests was Esther Hayes who used the occasion to tell the assembled throng that she was moving away from the area to live in Glasgow . The only sore point for Annie was a painful reminder that she played the part of Lady Godiva in a Weatherfield pageant in the 1930s . To reinforce her embarrassment , a picture of Annie in the pageant ( tastefully photographed from behind ) appeared on the projection screen and another surprise guest was a Mr . Stubbins who had led the donkey that Annie had sat on all those years ago . The pursed - lipped look on her face at this stage of the proceedings suitably conveyed her emotions . All ended successfully though when the audience joined in a chorus of " For She ' s A Jolly Good Fellow " . Real Life . In reality , the BBC version of the programme ended in 1964 but the format was resurrected by Thames Television in 1969 . As another ITV company , they were keen to feature as many " Coronation Street " stars as possible and this trend continued even when the programme returned to the BBC in 1994 . Below are listed the members of the " Coronation Street " regular cast who were subjects of the programme , together with a second list of people who made guest appearances on the " Street " or who had connections with it but whose fame overall led to them being featured in their own right over the years . Dates after the names relate to the date of transmission of the relevant edition of " This Is Your Life " .
