Some of Coronation Street’s most iconic stars are to unite for an ITV special. ITV bosses are cooking up a plan for a spin off series of the best loved soap to fill the void for fans.
Last month it was announced that filming for the programme has been halted in order to curb the spread of the deadly coronavirus pandemic.
Since March 30, instead of the usual six weekly episodes, Corrie has been rationed to three on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7.30pm.
So news of new episodes is likely to be a welcome treat for viewers. The four-part series will delve into the lives of the soap’s longest running actors, as well as explore the street’s most explosive storylines.
