- Annie Walker (also Beaumont) is a long-standing fictional character in the ITV soap opera Coronation Street. She was played by actress Doris Speed from the series' first episode in 1960 until Speed retired from the role 23 years and 1,726 episodes later in 1983. Speed appeared as a guest of honour at the 30th birthday celebration of Coronation Street in 1990 which was hosted by Cilla Black. The character of Annie has been noted as "snobbish" and "snooty" due to her condescending attitude and delusions of grandeur. Despite this, Annie proved to be one of the show's most popular characters and Speed received more fan mail than any other cast member at the time. For her service, Speed was later declared a "national treasure" by the media and received an MBE in 1977. (en)

- Nobody answered her back and stayed to finish their pint. Everybody called her Mrs Walker except her husband and he called her the missus. She thought that was common.
It is a potent, persistent creation. Who does Annie Walker remind you of. That firm hair, that careful elocution, that backbone and a certain understandable confusion between her job and Her Majesty's? Mrs Walker, the iron landlady, had one weakness, one touch of metal fatigue, her only son. Billy could have hidden at will behind a conger eel. While Annie was mayoress, he gambled away the pub's takings. Just good writing. (en)
