Coronation Street (Corrie) is a British television soap opera created by Granada Television and shown on ITV since 9th December 1960. The programme centres on a cobbled, terraced street in the fictional Weatherfield, a town based on inner-city Salford, England.
Throughout it's strong history CORONATION STREET and panto have gone hand in hand. Not only did corrie make a panto episode (which you can still watch on the ITV PLAYER) but the stars of the street love to tip-toe into the panto world.
Have a look below and see who you remember from the show!
