Coronation Street and Emmerdale Set to 'Evolve' as Big Changes Coming for ITV Soaps
ITV upgrades aim to modernize Coronation Street and Emmerdale with filming technology supporting resolutions beyond HD, creating a unified ITV look while preserving each show's uniqueness.
- Recently, ITV announced upgrades to filming equipment and post-production for Coronation Street and Emmerdale at studios in Greater Manchester and Leeds.
- The upgrade responds to concerns about streaming-era viewer expectations as Iain MacLeod said the aim is to evolve the soaps' look to keep Corriedale's cinematic flavours without homogenising Emmerdale and Coronation Street.
- Viewers reacted strongly on social media to the Corriedale, the Coronation Street–Emmerdale crossover, with fans praising the episode as `the single best episode of a soap I’ve ever seen in my life` after a dramatic event. MacLeod indicated a follow-up is unlikely.
- Upgrading cameras and post-production will change how Coronation Street and Emmerdale look, with some scenes possibly filmed at a resolution higher than HD, MacLeod said.
- Amid fan pleas for sequels, Iain MacLeod signalled the crossover may remain a one-off, cautioning `My fear is a lot of the joy of the first iteration was that you’d never seen it before`.
