History
---------
Coronation Street is one of the longest-running television programmes in the United Kingdom and is fab - the best soap on TV. It was first broadcast on 9 December 1960 in black and white.

When i was around 10 i went on a school trip to Granada Studios. Between 1989 and 1999 you could visit the set. In 1999 the exterior set was extended and updated to include more of Rosamund Street. The majority of the interior scenes are shot in a purpose-built studio (you used to be able to see this aswell) Corrie is on on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday night at 7.30 (there is also another episode on usually at 8.30 Monday)

Programme
---------------
I have grown up watching Corrie and it is by far the most entertaining programme on TV. The cast and stroylines are second to none. There must be at least 50 times more laughs per programme than Eastenders and Emmerdale put together.

Characters
-------------
My favourite characters are Becky and Ashley as the have some very funny lines. All the characters are excellent actors and are well scripted and chosen.

Not really about the studio tour.

doesnt really say much about the tour or what else you can see in the studio complex like Baker Street, Downing Street, House Of Lords, the New York Street scape, that you can visit and have a drink in The Rovers Return actual set or send a postcard from Weatherfield.
