Well Im not impressed with that tram crash, especial how the back carriage, magical goes up in the air then comes back down, that would never have happened in real life, it would have rolled over or something

Agree - the explosion was fantastic, but the tram crash was just laughable. Then again, maybe it's just highlighting how well they mix comedy with drama!

I know. The tram would have made a more robust movement and would not have just banked all of a sudden. That made the tram "derail" less emotional.

EDIT: The explosion was more entertaining and realistic though, but I think I experienced a better experience in Orlando's theme park. Confused

I thought that was strange as well - maybe because of the impact it caused it to go up into the air?

Im not sure whether I liked it or not yet - it was very shocking to watch tho.

I think they tried a bit too hard with the tram, would have been better to just see the tram on the viaduct one minute and then cut back as its smashing into the buildings.

Turn your contrast up a bit. It doesn't seem to be completely black. I think bricks is a good guess as to what it is.

I noticed the bricks as well. They were more noticeable right at the side of the full HD frame, so I imagine most of the more visible part was cropped off by the overscan on SD. Although the ITV1 HD DOG was not used it was listed as being HD on the Sky EPG.

I didn't know there was a sharp bend just before you reach the top of Coronation Street. Funny shaped viaduct!
