Behind the scenes at Coronation Street 😱 Karen got a peak behind the scenes at Weatherfield and a personal tour with David Platt himself, Jack P. Shepherd! - #SixVMTV #KarenKoster #CoronationStreet #Corrie #News
Can put up with new set, but not the new writers. The street has lost its humour. It’s lost its older generation, the ones with real character. It’s all doom and gloom and dismal young people.much like eastenders
I went the old Granada Studio's, twice, back in the early to mid 90's when I was a young kid, with my grandma & one of her friends. I remember using the phonebox outside the hairdressers, as it was an actual working phonebox, & phoned my mum back at home just to tell her I was phoning her from Coronation Street 🤣
I wonder if the designers actually bother to go and do reccys of the areas that Coronation St/ Weatherfield is supposed to be based on? Because these sets look awful. Only the terrace, it seems was ever based on anything real. ITV spend all that money on Corrie and just get rubbish in return. EastEnders on the other hand, the attention to detail and realism of the sets is on point. For Corrie, though, EEs design makes it so much worse for them, because just shows Corrie’s sets for how naff they are.
I don’t think today’s characters are interesting enough to warrant the set expansion. Only the veterans are still worth watching and they had their best storylines years ago. Is the show going to be renamed simply Weatherfield now.
