Coronation Street fans wanted by ITV

ITV are looking for someone who lives, breathes and eats Corrie, but who hasn't necessarily had their own real-life Coronation Street experience as yet. 

 

Perhaps they write fan-fiction, or have been moved by a particular storyline which mirrored something that had happened to them? Maybe they've never missed an episode in the programme's long history!

If you know someone who fits the bill - and who isn't you (it has to be someone you know), please email SurpriseSurprise2@itv.com to find out more.

Eddie Windass does The Full Monty

I can't believe I let this one slip without noticing it and blogging.

Coronation Street fan Karen writes in to the blog to tell me that Steve Huison, the actor who plays Eddie Windass in Corrie is the same fella who starred as Lomper in the movie The Full Monty. Lomper was the fella who played the trumpet in the film and is pictured second from left in the movie banner below and in just his pants in the bottom picture too. Pics taken from the Full Monty website.
