An ITV/STV spokesperson has told AndyGibsonTV.com what's to come on the cobbles in the very near future.
Ever since CoronaVirus Pandemic stopped production of all drama in the United Kingdom, Emmerdale and Coronation Street has been running on a reduced capacity but not for much longer. Come 14 September 2020, the Manchester-based programme will return to 6 episodes a week.
An ITV/STV spokesperson has told AndyGibsonTV.com what's to come on the cobbles in the very near future.
- David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd) & Shona Platt (Julia Goulding) will fight to rekindle their lost love after Shona was shot by Derek Milligan last Christmas.
- Recently, Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) has been using sex worker, Nicky Wheatley (Kimberly Hart-Simpson) as a form of replacement for his dead wife. According to an ITV insider, this is set to "deepen" in the near future.
- Since Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) has come back to Weatherfield, she has been a thorn in the side of Abi Franklin (Sally Carman). Viewers should buckle-in because a catastrophic rivalry is about to begin between the two women.
- Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) has been innocently assisting fellow addict, Abi, but his involvement will soon bring darkness to his door and Carla Connor (Alison King) will be caught in the crossfire.
- Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) is set to "take on the world", according to a source, as she fights to save her son Oliver. To throw a spanner in the works, Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) will be haunted with a face of the past when Natasha Blakeman (Rachel Leskovac) finds herself back in Weatherfield. It has been suggested Natasha will threaten Nick's future in Weatherfield.
- The return of Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) spells more heartache for Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) and plants a bomb under Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) and Paul Foreman (Peter Ash). But it’s not all heartache for Eileen when a new arrival puts a spring in her step!
- And with Tanisha Gorey featured in the promotional image, there is something coming up for Asha Alahan as well.
Series Producer of Coronation Street, has said:
"The amount of work that has gone into keeping Coronation Street on the air, and getting it back to six episodes a week, has been staggering. I am so proud of the tireless efforts of everyone behind the scenes and onscreen. We have been energised and motivated by the nearly 60 years of heritage behind the show, and the massively important place it still holds in the Nation’s hearts. Throughout lockdown and beyond, the regular instalments of Britain’s best-loved soap have taken on even greater significance, giving viewers a beacon of familiarity and normality amid the craziest of times. It is often said that our characters are like members of the viewers' extended families. And at a time when many people couldn't see their loved ones in real life, their fictional friends on the cobbles became even more essential, as the audience escaped in half-hour bursts into the wonderful world of Weatherfield."
Coronation Street returns to 6 episodes a week on ITV/STV, Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 19:30/20:30.
