Coronation Street is set to make a big change to the way viewers can watch episodes during the Euro 2021 tournament.
For four weeks starting from June 14th, all Corrie episodes for each coming week will be made available on the ITV Hub on every Monday, allowing viewers the chance to binge watch the soap or choose to watch at their leisure.
This will be alongside showing the episodes on the main ITV channel each week, giving viewers a wider choice of how, where and when they’d like to view.
Coronation Street producer Iain MacLeod said: “There are loads of key rivalries across the Cobbles this summer and I think it will be like following your favourite team - there will be times where they let you down, make mistakes and maybe score a few own goals. But you’ll back them till the end and woe betide anyone else who criticises them.
"Given how exciting the stories are, it’s great that fans will have the chance to binge watch all the episodes on ITV Hub at the start of each week - as with football, sometimes when it’s an exciting face-off, you really want extra time.”
During this summer the residents of Coronation Street will be forced to decide whose side they’re on, as it becomes clear that all’s not fair in love and war in Weatherfield.
As the key players line up against each other this summer, we’ll see Paul go head to head with Todd for Billy’s affections.
Team Paul fans will be rooting for him to uncover Todd’s scheming ways which won Billy back. But Todd’s roguish charm and clear love for Billy will see others on his side as they back Team Todd.
Fiz will do battle with Tyrone as she fights for their girls following his affair with Alina.
Fiz decides she wants custody of the girls, but Tyrone is set to come out fighting as he wants to still be their dad despite his infidelity.
Johnny will be tackling Jenny over her fling with Ronnie. Johnny may feel like the wronged party after Jenny slept with Ronnie while he was in prison. But Team Jenny supporters will point out he was far from the model husband as he was sent down for a serious historical crime.
*Coronation Street continues at 9pm tonight on ITV
