Interview with Corrie producer, Phil Collinson

There's a wonderfully revealing interview with Coronation Street producer Phil Collinson in the Manchester Evening News. You can read it in full here or here's the highlights below:

He says he's not a hatchet man and that Vicki Entwhistle (Janice Battersby) is leaving of her own free will.

He once auditioned with Antony Cotton for a part in Queer as Folk.

He once appeared in Corrie as a banker who sold John Lindsay a loan! Have a look at him here at corrie.net.

There'll be surprising exits when the tram crashes and kills off people in December. Here's who the Sunday Mirror reckons will be getting killed off - with a handy cut out and keep map of the Street for the easily confused.

And he says there’s also much more to come in the love story between Sophie Webster and Sian Powers.
