reports that 'confused' Corrie fans have been ringing in to the Manchester Metrolink asking about the derailment and delays on the tram line. It is thought that ITV's spoof news broadcast after the show – watched by more than 14m viewers – may also have confused some people.
Er, get a grip, people. We all love Corrie, but IT'S NOT REAL!
The manchester Evening News is available throughout the North West of England and along the North Wales coastal towns. It used to be available in London at Euston Station but on recent visits it appears that they no longer sell regional newspapers there.

ReplyDeleteI've got my copy :-p One page twice states that Corrie didn't start until 1961. Slapped wrists for them - don't they realise that when we are celebrating the 50th anniversary that means it must have started in 1960. Doh!
ReplyDeleteThanks , have just ordered it :)
