WIN! Competition to lay the last cobble on new Coronation Street

The Manchester Evening News have teamed up with ITV to offer one lucky reader a money-can't-buy prize. Coronation Street is on the move to join their ITV colleagues already at MediaCityUK. The set is heading towards completion but there is one important thing missing…the final cobble on the main street and that’s where this amazing prize comes in. 

By the way, that fab pic of the present cobbles was taken by our blogger Graeme on his visit to the Street earlier this year.  Read about it here.

Along with an exclusive tour and smorgasbord of goodies, the winner of this competition will get the honour to sign and lay the final cobble and become a part of Corrie history. They will also be giving five runners up a Golden Anniversary box set.


The MEN will be printing three different Coronation street questions each day in the Manchester Evening News on Saturday 3rd, Monday 5th, Tuesday 6th and Wednesday 7th August 2013.

You must read full terms and conditions at manchestereveningnews.co.uk/rules as it restricts who can enter (see point 26).  If you win and want to blog about the experience, do please email and let us know!
