Long-running daily British soap opera which is now the world's longest running program. It all takes place in a working-class neighborhood in the fictional Weatherfield, a town in Northern England. The cover focuses on Albert Tatlock (Jack Howarth) and his friends at the local pub.

The story has the show being pitched by a Prince Charles lookalike.
I'm afraid a lot of the references go over the head of an Ugly American like myself, though a Brit or Anglophile is welcome to help. No need to go through the extra trouble of googling just for li'l ol' me.
