No doubt a multitude of online articles re continuity errors re coming....but a bit ridic already tonight. Nick alarmingly grey in an outdoor scene but his normal style indoors. Couldn’t he have worn a beanie hat outside to slightly mitigate the hair issues?

Corrie must also be in a mix of scenes filmed pre-lockdown and after Lockdown-in fact i think i saw a tweet that last Friday's episode was the last one fully completed before lockdown happened.

Apparently there's 3 weeks worth of episodes that are pre and post-lockdown.

Besides Nick, it didn't seem as blatantly obvious compared to Emmerdale

I think Corrie was by far mostly pre-lockdown though, and they don't have the timeline issues that Emmerdale has

Apparently in Corrie's case, the first episode with all scenes post lockdown is Friday 24th July.

If you were watching out for it, there were a few quite obviously 'distanced' scenes, e.g. Alya and Cathy both going to visit Sally at different points in the episode and both happening to conveniently loiter in the doorway rather than fully coming inside while she was across the room ironing, and a similar story with Leanne and Toyah, but, considering the constraints, I think they did a great job of slotting new and old scenes together in a way that to the casual viewer didn't seem jarring or especially noticeable in the slightest. Good work by the Corrie team in presumably rather logistically tricky circumstances.

I noticed there are already articles about fans noticing the difference in hair styles. It seems like the media pick up on every little thing to do with Corrie but very rarely Emmerdale.

Because it is more popular and they know more people will read about it.

I remember today's classic corrie vividly. Vera seeing Ivy's ghost really freaked me out as a kid! Laughing


Plus a "ghostly" start to the end titles. Nicely done as well.

Big cuts to the final scene of today's second classic episode. The full episode broadcast on 28th February 1996 is on you tube.

Was something wrong with the content?

Presumably violence that can't be shown in its entirety at three in the afternoon.
