He is 6ft 3in and I am only 5ft — one time I was meant to hit him in the arm, but whacked him in his wedding tackle by accident!

Janice: Will you please tell that ex-husband of yours, Les, that just became a woman turns down his tacky advances, it doesn’t make her a bunny boiler. Thank you!

As for Bruce Jones, who played Les, I don’t see him as more than 5ft11/11.5. Bruce also made an appearance in The Full Monty, an award-winning comedy from the 90s.

I do remember when Vicky said she was the smallest member of the cast.

There’s no denying it, Vicky’s now ex-husband has a great taste in music, which must have rubbed off on Janice! I could hear Thin Lizzy’s ‘The Boys Are Back In Town’ blasting out of his sound system in yesterday’s episode, which I’m watching again.

Redheaded Bruce isn’t coping at all well with the split, and is drinking himself into oblivion. I do feel for him. Drinking never solved anything. It just worsens the situation.

Vicky, who looks great in pale pink, has good dress sense. Wearing one colour when you aren’t very tall does make for a taller appearance.

Janice is cheating on husband Les with a character called Dennis, played by Charles Dale in Classic Coronation Street. I’ve read 5ft11 for Les Battersby actor, Bruce Jones, and I think that Charles Dale is much the same height.

Vicky Entwistle gets 5ft0.5.

In the Boxing Day edition of Classic Coronation Street, from the year 2000, Les Battersby instructs his wife, Janice, to get dressed smartly in the hope that they will be the next landlords of the Rovers Return public house.

Perhaps Janice might have been fit for the job, but Les? He’d have consumed all the profits! 😂😂😂

Petite, newly-blonde Janice - Vicky - gets 5ft 0.5. Her curly blonde mop, as depicted above, is a better height-boosting style for her.

Booting husband Les Battersby out when he’s been sneaky with his windfall is a wise move, Janice! If I remember rightly, Janice, played by Vicky, goes on to have an affair with his friend, who has been very supportive of her during her husband’s spell of frivolousness. Not ideal to go with Les’s mate, now ex-mate, but he’s a vast improvement and at least he has ethics.

Les is chatting up a woman in his hotel, and she’s actually a business girl, and wants payment!, so ‘the deed’ seems to
have been done! Who knows? Who cares?

Now perhaps he’ll see that he’s not the ‘babe magnet’ he reckons he is!

I think I put a little too much for Vicky last time. I remember reading an article in which she said she was under 5ft, so she’s highly likely one of those rare ladies who likes being petite, which is fine if you’ve never been taken advantage of because of it.

5ft0.5. 😁💐

Regarding the arrival of Andrew Scarborough, now that Mike Baldwin’s son has been kicked out, Vicky says, “I wouldn’t mind having a crack at him myself! There’ve got to be perks to every job and when a young, tasty morsel like that turns up……”

Say no more, Vicky; I’m thinking the very same way!

5ft0.75.

That husband of hers is SO uncouth! He wolfed down his dinner in today's Classic version of Coronation Street and let go a filthy great burp afterwards. It was bad even by my rather vast experience - not that I do it myself, of course 😉, but I know plenty who do, and they're big men, and the noises emminating from these folks can be deafening! 🙉

Today's Classic Coronation Street:

The Battersby family have gone on holiday in an old wreck of a van, which duly, and not unexpectedly, broke down. It cost a pretty penny to repair, and when Janice passes over the payment, Les comes out with, "That's my beer money that is!"

Janice retorts, "From now on, you'll be getting drunk on sea air!" 👏😝

Well said, Janice! 😁👌🌊🐚

How tall do you think bruce Jones is then rob? Could he be the listed 6 foot? Or maybe shy of that?
Editor Rob
at the very most 6ft
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 4/Oct/21
@ Rob - I read that six foot three business and thought, "Surely she's not talking about Bruce Jones?"

She WAS! I've checked him out before and I agreed with the 182cm that I found.

Vicky Entwistle may just edge out Vicky Binns!

I like her hair, teeth, and smile!

Great addition to the site, Rob! I'd often wondered about her, and with the 5ft1, I think she's rounding up somewhat.

5ft0.5. 😃💐
Editor Rob
Back in the day she always seemed a couple of inches or so shorter than someone like Jane Danson...although the guy she's describing as 6ft 3 is Bruce Jones, which is a bit of an overestimation on Vicky's part.
