I would love Karen McDonald to come back, but Suranne is too busy and famous to come back, it would be a step back for her. I would be tempted to axe 70% of the cast, but I think I would try to do what Kate Oates is attemtping and making the less popular characters work.
I would introduce a new family to run the corner shop, i would close down Underworlds and the bistro. I would bring Denise Osbourne back full time and have a new family running the Rovers. I would make the Rovers the heart and central point of the show again.

I would axe
Michelle
Sean
Fizz
Beth
Gazza Windass
Sinead
Dev
Gemma
And I would bring back Curly Watts and make sure he is written well. I would also bring back Damien Ogden and have a new generation of Ogdens. Turf Peter and Toyah out of the pub and put the Ogden's there.

Good idea holey about the factory. Maybe it shuts down for good. Get a petrol station there instead with an entrance from Rosamund Street and move the Bistro to the remainder of the site and make the arch a grotty run down arch again.
Brookie was the last show to feature a petrol station full time.

The houses of the first outdoor set from 1968 to 1982 were smaller but much more realistic as the huge viaduct was real as was the cobbles. The bricks looked authentic as well. The 1982-2013 set looked too clean and posh and the fake viaduct was just a wall which was smaller and shorter than the real one flanking the old set, and you could often see the end of the "viaduct" in scenes in the back yards in the 1982-2013 set. |

The petrol station is still there at Childwall, there's a wall hiding it from Hollyoaks Village! I think it was used in Hollyoaks a little while back.
The current "posh side" of the Street is the longest lasting of the "other sides" as it's been there for over 27 years. The original Mission Hall lasted 8 years, the Maisonettes lasted 3 and the Warehouse/Baldwins Factory lasted 18 years. So yes, it's certainly time for a rethink.
When they moved the set to Salford I genuinely thought they would expand the set beyond the current limits but we're not really seeing much of that. I'd love to see Rosamund Street expand properly past the viaduct, the old Kabin and Cafe were down there, they could have a Wetherspoon type pub down there called "The Old Kabin" or a storyline where it's revealed Rita never sold it and she keeps her chequebooks there!

I think there is work going on at present to open the set up to show Rosamund Street and beyond. If you look near the medical centre i think there is construction work going on.
That is one thing Coronation Street has over EastEnders and Emmerdale, Coronation Street might be S**t right now, but itv have invested and spent money on the new set at Media City, something that is urgently needed on the set at Elstree.

I would bring back Dennis Tanner, then bring in his family and perhaps a guest appearance of Linda Cheveski.

Oh yeah and introduce Roy's family from his father's side. It is time Roy had some more screen time that didn't involve the two idiots Brian and Cathy.
