Victoria Street extension [Corrie]

[Scarlett.]

I was reading a thread on a forum (TV Forum, I think it is called) and some bloke got a tour (the Underworld aftermath pic was his) and I spotted this little nugget

They are also going to build a new street further down Victoria Street (passed Victoria Court and running alongside the big Warehouse building.) Whether this is meant to be just down the road from Coronation Street in the storyline or whether it is just a set for somewhere else in Weatherfield (if you get what I mean) I don't know.

so they will be looking to have more of 'Weatherfield' in the Granada complex by the sound of it.

I have emailed my usual Corrie contact, to see if he can verify it, but I'm not expecting a reply until Monday

So what would you like to see on this new section of Victoria Street? (if it is actually going to be Victoria Street)

Hmmm, could have a restaurant similar to EE's Fargo's?

[Scarlett.]

possibly, I'd like to see a actual Freshco's shop xD

I had to google that, lmao! Look what I found - http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s3/coronation-street/spoilers/a76129/roy-has-a-breakdown-in-freshcos.html

Might bring back bad memories for Roy! :shocked:

[Scarlett.]

hahahaha, or it might remind Ken of the Frescho's siege :eek:

[Jords]

Did we last see Freshcos when Curly worked there and Alma and Ken, and the manager, can't remember his name. And wasn't Hayley first seen working there?

[Scarlett.]

We last saw it when Roy payed a visit there xD

[Smithy]

Ohh, so do we know what we're going to get?

[Scarlett.]

Not yet xD

Was that when it was robbed?

[Scarlett.]

[Scarlett.]

From this pic from the Adidias party, looks like work may have started

I wonder when this will all be built and shizz? I might see if I can get some more info of the spokesperson

[Scarlett.]

The spokesman told me the extension is complete

[Scarlett.]

Not about the new part of the street, rather than what's behind the building site on Victoria Street, you can see here
