Coronation Street fans are convinced Ken Barlow swore during a conversation with Norris Cole in Monday night’s episode.
The Coronation Street legend has recently moved from the cobbles to Stillwaters retirement village, where he was thrilled to bump into old friend Norris.

Norris lives there with his wife, Freda, but he is far from happy at the complex.
Ken questioned why Norris doesn’t just tell Freda the truth, asking: “Why don’t you tell Freda how you feel about this place?”
“She loves it here,” Norris replied.
That’s when fans believe Ken swore!
Ken said: “But you think it’s a load of [bleep].”
One fan pointed out the subtitles for the show read ‘pollocks’.
A pollock could either refer to a fish or be a reference to artist Jackson Pollock – after all, they were at an art class!
Other viewers thought that explanation was a load of pollocks too!
Did goody goody Ken Barlow really swear? Fans are sure he did!
