With an explosion and fire that makes the fire in Barlow's bookies' look like a scout campfire, and with carnage and blood spilled onto the Street in the aftermath, you can bet the powers that be are leaving no cobble unturned. The live episode goes out on December 9 and rehearsals start tonight and will go on for a week and a half up to the day of filming. The final dress rehearsal is going to be on the day of the episode and that seems to be leaving a few peoples' nerves in jitters but I have no doubts it will be a huge success.
This article also mentions that a smackdown between Mother Nature and the Continuity Fairy could see Mother Nature come out on top as there has been snow falling in various areas of Britian, Manchester included and if it's snowing on the day of filming, it's not going to match the scenes of the actual tram crash that have already been done. It'll be bare during the crash and we could very well see snow on the ground in the aftermath.

There's been next to nothing here (Manchester) as regards snow.
Hard harsh frosts? oh yeah.. plenty!
There's only a weather advisory out as regards snow - and thats for Wednesday.
I doubt for a moment it will have much impact for the live episode unless more than a couple of inches falls between now and the night...
(and they'll have teams out to keep the set clear anyway!)
There is snow forecast for tonight, but, as has shown already, it's coming from the N/NE and it's stalling at the Pennines.
I guess the only sensible thing to do is keep an eye on the weather :-)
As it's falling in various spots around the country i think they're just wondering what would happen if it started to fall during the filming of the live episode or just before when they won't have time to clear it
My guess is that they'll install a street-wide tarpaulin just in case
Perhaps huge heat-blowers to help melt any snow.
Well the explosion and fire will go a long way to melting some of it!
I'm getting really excited about this! Best of luck to Team Corrie!
Oh my goodness. This looks AMAZING...
