That was good that Rovey... I wonder if anyone will do something similar for Granada...?

So here is a pic of Archie Street in Salford that inspired the set design for Corrie...
And here it is today, although it's now called Greenwood Terrace...

Here's an unofficial tour around the old set as it is today guys... You may have to watch it on Youtube but it plays perfectly fine... Enjoy or don't enjoy, depending how you feel...

Given how easy it seems to be to whack a preservation order on any old tat these days, just ask anyone who is trying to fix up an old house, how can it be right that the home of the the oldest surviving UK TV 'backlot' can be knocked down.

Thanks Charley. The cornerstone of the community - the corner shop is no more.What a shame. The likes of Asda and Aldi have taken their place. Oh well, at least Dev's kids will live on.

Nice to have gone to these places while in Manchester. The church at the end of Archie St is still there of course.

I've been following this guy on YouTube for a while now... His videos are mainly about the history of Manchester... And showing us things we wouldn't normally get to see...
Well in his latest video he manages to get a tour around Old Granada Studios... Have a look and listen as to what is happening around these parts...

Such a waste to have demolished the 1982-2013 set. In July 2013 I did walk past where the 2014-present set was being built.
