‘Corrie’, as the world famous soap opera has become known to its millions of fans, first hit the UKs tv screens way back in 1960.   Devised by scriptwriter Tony Warren for Granada TV, the soap was initially rejected but eventually a thirteen episode pilot series was made and the rest is history!.

Critics thought the shows use of characters speaking with a northern dialect and sense of humour would not be popular with the public …. just goes to prove how much the ‘experts’ know!.

The rows of terraced houses, Rover’s Return pub, corner shop and Bessie St school are all set in Weatherfield, a fictional town based on Salford.  The gritty setting and down to earth characters became an instant hit with the viewing public and ‘Corrie’ quickly became the most watched programme on tv.

The show has been one of the most financially successful on commercial tv and has made a major contribution to the success of Granada TV and ITV.   For many years it was produced at Granada Studios in central Manchester however in 2014 production moved to the new MediaCity development at Trafford Wharf.

The team at Gala offer a whole Coronation St themed, 90 ball bingo room which is open for play from 8am to midnight every day of the week.  The ‘caller’ and host is one of Corrie’s old favourites, the slightly bonkers Reg Holdsworth, aka actor Ken Morley.  Ken is often joined in the bingo room by actor John Savident, he played the streets lovable but unlucky butcher Fred Elliot, who died on his wedding day back in 2006!.
