Corrie fans will soon be able to see 360-degree images of the famous Street as it becomes the first ever TV soap set to feature on Google Street View.

The Google Street View car has been driven down the cobbles to capture pictures for its virtual maps, so you will soon be able to see the Street as you've never seen it before.

To celebrate the relaunch of this new Corrie website, the soap's producers threw open the gates to the set for the special car with camera equipment on its roof, making it the first TV soap ever to do so.

The pictures captured by the car will now be processed and carefully stitched together to create a 360-degree view of the famous Street. The technological process can take several months so they will be made available at a later date. We'll let you know when.

A Corrie spokesman said: “Thanks to Street View, fans will be able to have a good nose around the set in a way that would have been unimaginable almost 50 years ago when the show first aired. “
