Coronation Street has updated its opening titles, Digital Spy can confirm.

The update to the opening sequence is only minor but reflects the changes to the famous street since the current titles were introduced in mid-2010.

Eagle-eyed fans have often pointed out that the current titles feature two outdated shots as they show the old-style Corner Shop and don't include Nick's Bistro.

The new titles remove these shots and replace them with two new ones - showing the Bistro as well as the updated exterior to the Rovers Return, which was brought in after last year's fire.

Viewers will see the new titles, which are otherwise unchanged, for the first time on Monday (March 10).

Next week's episodes also include the first exterior scenes filmed at the new Coronation Street set in Trafford. The first interior scenes from the soap's new home have already aired.
