Earlier this week, me, my Mum and Sophie went to the Coronation Street Tour in Manchester, which was the original set where they filmed for over fifty years before they moved in 2013.
We first had a guided tour of the studios, where we saw the wardrobe and some of the character’s outfits, dressing rooms and make up stations. There were also the interior sets of The Rovers Return, The Kabin and the houses (such as The Platt’s and The Dobb’s as well as Carla’s flat). Unfortunately, there was no photography allowed in the studios but there are pictures on their website if you want to take a look.
Here are some photos –
We really enjoyed our day out and we’re so glad we managed to book tickets for the tour before they closed.
I went to the Corrie tour in May 2014 when I was 8 months pregnant with my son. I loved walking round the street outside and seeing the sets. I was so knackered from walking all afternoon but we really enjoyed it. So sad that it's going to be knocked down soon.
I really enjoyed the tour too, oh I bet you were so tired after all that walking! It's such a shame it has to be demolished x
