I think that might just be the wall which has the picture of Rosamund Street plastered on it, could be wrong though - it did look ridiculous at the old set, so much so that recently they parked a large Newton & Ridley van so that you couldn't see down the street.

True, but from what I can see, it looks like the facade has windows and doors, here's a picture of another angle

It does look rather as if there's now going to be a T-junction after the railway bridge with a street running perpendicular to (a rather shortened) Rosamund Street.

I guess this is no more of an unexplained change than the bridge appearing there overnight in the first place in the early 00's.

New title sequence sees new shot of the Bistro from the postbox (gone is the shot of that woman with black hair walking down the street towards the Rovers), and as promised the new look Rovers. Other than that the titles are identical.

They are quite nice subtle changes. Only us anoraks will probably notice. Very Happy
DavidWhitfield, gmb2014 and chris gave kudos

The new shots look a lot better, a lot less washed out, more defined

I see they also have new break bumpers.

I see they also have new break bumpers.

I didnt spot any tonight, though I was watching on the ITV Player where they might have been different?

Someone uploaded the new titles

I also noticed the other day that the ITV logo that appeared in the titles for a while is no longer there.

The only programme that features the ITV logo now is Daybreak... All shows stopped using the logo quite a while back.

Oh yes - hadn't noticed. Wonder when it disappeared. Looks much better without.

See they've kept the "old" style tram going over the bridge.

It's been gone longer than it lasted - final appearance was 12th July 2013.
