Now you can watch Coronation Street on Virgin Atlantic planes

Stape's on a plane! Now you can watch Corrie in the air!

Virgin Atlantic have already proved they're Coronation Street fans by naming an aeroplane after one of Corrie's biggest characters.  And now the airline's teamed uup with ITV to show episodes of Corrie and Emmerdale  as part of the in-flight entertainment on Virgin Atlantic planes.

The new catch-up service, which launches this month, will include weekly updates of the latest episodes from Weatherfield and the Dales.

Martin Goswami, director of pay and distribution at ITV, said: 'Soaps are the cornerstone of ITV's prime-time schedule and a key driver of national conversation up and down the country. We are thrilled to have teamed up with Virgin Atlantic to offer them a new and exciting service enabling their soap-loving passengers to catch up on any episodes they have missed on board their flights."

The airline flies to 36 destinations around the world including cities in the United States, Africa and the Far East.
