Damon Rochefort interview

Tonight we see Coronation Street and the devastation in the cold December light of day and it ain't gonna be pretty, folks. Where do we go from here? Well, Welsh writer Damon Rochefort starts us off. He's penned both episodes tonight.

There's an interview with him in the Wales Online website. He talks about the tram crash as "It was more about driving a tram through the characters’ lives." Indeed, it was! Damon used to be a pop star, is now a writer and father. He loves working out of Manchester because Corrie gets a lot of attention. He's looking forward to continuing to give us lots of intrigue and his next episode is on New Year's Eve when a great mischief happens to newly returned Tracy Barlow.

Damon has been writing for Corrie since 2004 and is one of my favourite writers. I always know it's going to be a good episode if he's behind the pen... er... word processor.
