So excited for this!!

Am i right in guessing we wont actually see the tram come off the via duct. It will be the case of a few noises in the background then showing it impacting from the inside of the shops?

Really hoping we were going to see if actually come off the viaduct.


From what I understand, we see it come off, but the moment of impact is seen from inside the shop, it sounds like they didn't have time to make the moment of impact look real enough

Basically the art department planned the one carriage to hit the Kabin and the other to hit Dev's. There is no way the tram could come off the track and follow the path in that way, so the special effects team cheated a bit and cut away once its left the track.

Ah, I see, it will probably have more effect anyway

I posted this a few pages back, but it was plauged by being the last post on a page xD

The ITV1 logo is all gold in that poster, are ITV going to change the logo for Corrie?

Is it not more the fact that it's on a black background that there've used an alternative colour.
Although I woulnn't be supried to see some specila breakbumpers at least.

Also probably an over inflated figure but...

Coronation Street's upcoming tram crash plot is costing ITV more than £5m, it has been claimed.

According to the News of the World, the logistics of the live show mean that much of the set will be demolished and rebuilt twice, costing £4.23m - making it the most expensive soap storyline ever.

A source said: "We wanted to celebrate our 50th anniversary in style - and doing that doesn't come cheap.

"It'll be the most expensive plot ever screened on British telly. But we reckon our viewers will think it's money well spent and a good way to start our next 50 years."

Meanwhile, £188,000 will be spent on salaries, catering and costumes, experts and stunt co-ordinators will cost £285,000 and a further £187,000 will go on safety precautions. Services from special effects experts have also come to £245,000, making a grand total £5.3m.

Why would you be 'expecting it', unless you'd been following the guy around?

Have you been?

Is it the business of you or anyone else?

Well it had been previously denied.

(Not that it makes any difference to me either!)

No one had mentioned it on Emma's forum up to yet about the latest revalation.

(Roger Mellie's a member too, isn't he? Isn't he in Emma's inner sanctum of favorite posters or summat? The one's she actually gives time to?)

Yes, it's about as important as me telling you I'd paid my gas bill.

These bin-divers or bush-stalkers who lurk to get this information are quite sickening. They create the so called interest by revealing the information which nobody wanted to know, and then see the reaction.

WIDOWER DATES PERSON - wow! Shocked

Lets hope it doesn't change her attitidue towards her fans on the forum, that she feels 'too good' to talk to them anymore?

(It annoys me sometimes that you seem to have little cliques in some places that supposedly normal people are in, but you try & get in there? You've got no chance!)
