Yeah the difference with the EastEnders & Corrie exterior sets are that Corrie's were built of real brick. The EastEnders set was built of wood on a metal framework & the bricks are fibreglass moulded panels stuck on. This is very clear when you see them close up. Obviously when the set was first built they didn't know the show was going to last as long as it did, so they have had to constantly re-build bits & tart it up regularly. Now that it is filmed in HD these flaws show up even more & probably spurned on by Corrie building a new set they have decided to do the same...

Just find it weird that they are going to build a temporary set somewhere else to use, then re-build on the current site. Surely it would be easier & far less time consuming (as well as cheaper) to just build a whole new set somewhere else?? So they are having to build TWO new sets instead of one!
