They have been told to consider the story carefully and bring up any issues they have with bosses before it begins filming.

“We are about to start filming a very big storyline in the New Year, lots of us are involved.”

“That’s starting as soon as we get back, literally in the new year.”
While it’s not known what the huge new storyline will be, new Corrie boss Iain MacLeod has set in motion some explosive stories for the new year.
Earlier this year he revealed plans for the storyline that will affect many of the older characters on the cobbles.
He told press: “Into the New Year we’ve got a really massive story that plays among some of our older cast but equally we’ve got huge new chapters for your Daniels and Sineads who are towards the younger end of the spectrum.
“We’ve got a big story for Amy Barlow coming up, but that’s all because the writers have brought amazing stories for those characters.

“I haven’t come in and briefed them and said ‘I want a big story for them or them’. I want it to be quite organic.”
Spoiler fans know the Amy Barlow story is a teen pregnancy storyline after she sleeps with gang leader Tyler.
But for now the huge storyline for the older residents remains a mystery.
