Did anyone notice that Streetcars changed slightly in last nights episodes? Well, it looks like the cab office has made its way over to the new set. Generally I imagine most interior sets at Corrie won't really change too much, the difference with Streetcars though, is that the new set is housed in the actual cab office on the street, as is Underworld.
The new cab office seems to differ to the old one in a few ways, for one, it's actually got a door to the toilets, which the switch operators will appreciate, and the wall between the office window and door to the office itself has shrunk massively.
As you can see in the picture above, on the left, Steve is enjoying a brew, admiring his beloved wall, that seperates the window and door, and on the right, Todd is explaining to Emily that the wall dissappeared over night, suggesting that it went down to that London.
I've been looking forward to the move since the news of it first broke in 2010, and can't wait to see how it looks on screen, the builders did a great job rebuilding the new set.

I also wonder if the building site where Owen and Gary are working is in fact the new set as it would have had scaffolding on it for a while.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the real set and would like to say that the old sets are the ones that are still used, things might be different because they pulled it down and rebuilt it but it's the same set, Underworld isn't inside the exterior set, that changed because ITV don't like having 2 cameras instead of 3, and they could only fit 2 in the exterior version of the set.
ReplyDeleteAnd No, they haven't moved anything, everything shown here was filmed during the start of 2014 at the old set and would've moved by now, but not on TV, rather hard to explain but yeah, everything moves together.
