Coronation Street is treating fans to an early sneak peek at the drama that will unfold during the soap’s 60th Anniversary week next month.
The dramatic promo hints at what fans can look forward to in the three one hour episodes running on Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the week of December 7th.
The anniversary week will see three storylines reach spectacular conclusions whilst at the same time starting off new chains of events which will take the show into 2021 and beyond.
For months the nation has been gripped by the appalling abuse inflicted by Geoff Metcalfe upon his wife Yasmeen. With Yasmeen on remand charged with Geoff’s attempted murder, the anniversary week will see the end of her trial. Will justice be done or is the nightmare only just beginning for Yasmeen and Alya?
Meanwhile Carla and Adam battle to keep the shameful secret of their illicit night together, knowing that if the truth comes out it will ruin their lives and those around them. Nothing stays quiet for long in soaps, and as the week progresses the web of lies and deceit they’ve created threatens to destroy them with shocking consequences.
At the centre of the anniversary drama is of course Coronation Street itself as the residents unite to save the cobbles from the dastardly dealings of Ray Crosby. Having bought up most of the property and businesses in the area, Ray is ready to flatten the lot to make way for his new development. As the bulldozers arrive on the cobbles the race is on to save Britain’s most famous street.
The show will be screened on ITV as three one hour episodes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7.30pm. The promo will air on ITV from Monday November 30th.

Geoff wouldn't be acting that way if Yasmeen was found guilty so it's fairly obvious she's going to be acquitted and he's going to flip out over that and try to burn the house down in retaliation, my prediction is that the roof is going to collapse under him while he's on it with Alya and he'll fall to a fiery death. So yeah, kind of a predictable and disappointing end to that whole storyline, where the solution is to suddenly kill villains off instead of bringing them to justice.
Okay armchair writer...how would you have ended this storyline?
