Only on three occasions have any celebrities been allowed to play themselves in the series: the first occasion was when H.R.H. King Charles III made an appearance on the show's 40th anniversary episode (2000), and was seen shaking hands with character Audrey Roberts in a sequence also featuring legendary ITV presenter Trevor McDonald. The second featured Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt of the British rock band Status Quo (the band itself also being a national UK institution); their drummer, Matt Lettley, also made a cameo in the episodes. (2005) Appearing in four episodes, Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt call into the Rovers Return, and Francis Rossi attacks character Les Battersby, himself a massive fan of the group, as Battersby had previously caused him a grievous neck injury. The matter later gets resolved, and the band agree to play at his upcoming wedding. Lastly, This Morning (1988) hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby appeared as themselves when characters Rosie Webster, Gemma Winter and Craig Tinker ostensibly featured in their daytime magazine show This Morning (1988) in 2018.
