Norah Tanner (née Dawson) was Arnold Tanner's new fiancée who owned a sweet shop in Weatherfield. She arrived in Coronation Street with Arnold when he was seeking a divorce from Elsie Tanner, in order for him to marry Norah. Norah thought she was a better class than anyone who lived on the Street and during an argument with Elsie she called her 'Common', whenever Elsie referred to Norah she called her 'Madame Toffee shop'.

Famous quotes containing the word tanner:
“Is it the lumberman, then, who is the friend and lover of the pine, stands nearest to it, and understands its nature best? Is it the tanner who has barked it, or he who has boxed it for turpentine, whom posterity will fable to have been changed into a pine at last? No! no! it is the poet.... All the pines shudder and heave a sigh when that man steps on the forest floor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
