He says: “The show is moving to Salford Quays next year. That’s a very big move for us. I’ll see that through as producer. So that takes me into the middle of next year. I can’t see beyond that at the moment. I’m happy to be creatively leading the show and still think I’ve got... Read Full Story

There's a bit of a story in today's Mirror which isn't exactly a spoiler and it's not exactly a story either. It says a "well placed source" at Coronation Street has told the paper "not to rule out a summer wedding" between Rita and Dennis. Rita and Dennis getting married is something we fans have voted for here on the Coronation Street Blog. And the paper goes on to say that away from the cameras, the partnership between Barbara Knox (Rita) and Philip Lowrie (Dennis) has blossomed... Read Full Story

Just so that the poll has the same amount of time as the others. Sorry again. The remaining polls will hopefully appear as normal in the next few weeks. Follow the... Read Full Story

Why, why, why do they always pair Eileen off with someone with complications, why can't she just find a nice bloke? Usually it is the people she is paired off with that I end up disliking though. This time it is Eileen who I am finding myself annoyed with, what she is doing is not right, no matter how she dresses it up. Paul is in a very vunerable position, sure he needs a friend, but that doesn't seem enough for Eileen. I don't really know how Eileen can look poor Lesley in the face... Read Full Story

There's an excellent storyline coming up next week in Coronation Street.  Guess who moves in with Tracy Barlow next week? Only knicker-stitcher Beth and her silent son, Craig!  Since Beth moved back to Coronation Street and got herself a job at freaky Frank's factory, this fan has been wishing and hoping her son Craig would turn up again soon, and now he has. This storyline looks set to raise a few laughs and anything that cheeses off Tracy Barlow is a good thing in my books. I guess as... Read Full Story
