UTV Ireland announce exclusive Corrie special

Corrie viewers in Ireland are to be given an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Coronation Street via a programme set to air on Friday, 25 March at 9pm on UTV Ireland.

It is reported on the UTV Ireland website that Access Coronation Street with Lorraine Keane will reveal what's in store for the programme and grant an access-all-areas look at what goes on behind the cameras with interviewees including Shayne Ward, Sue Nicholls, Michael Le Vell, Kym Marsh and Catherine Tyldesley.

Presenter Lorraine says, “On average, half a million people in Ireland tune into every episode of Coronation Street, but we never get to see what goes on behind the scenes, what the cast get up to when they’re not in front of the camera, and what exactly it takes to create this soap juggernaut, which has been on air for 56 years”

This will be the first time that an Irish camera crew has been granted such access to the show, and the programme is is described by UTV Ireland as "a 'must-watch' for all Corrie fans".
