The Next BIG Corrie Stunt?
I'm in 'dream' land tonight after watching the BSAs and watching the Spectacular Scene nominations made me wonder when Corrie's next big stunt will be. The last stunt was the Rovers fire.
2013 - Rovers Fire 2010 - Tram Crash 2010 - Underworld Siege/Explosion 2004 - Mad Maya Shop Explosions/Crash into Viaduct 2003 - Hillman Hostages/Canal Crash/Underwater 2000 - Fresco's Siege 1997 - Don Brennan Crashes into Viaduct 1987 - Alma/Don Car Crash into Canal/Underwater 1979 - Lorry Crashes into Rovers 1969 - Coach Crash 1967 - Train Crashes off the Viaduct I'm not sure what they could do. If my imagination is left to run wild... a vicious storm that causes a city-wide power cut in Manchester, scary stuff, a lot of people congregate in the Rovers where they've lit the place up in candles, but then disaster strikes and something crashes into the pub... perhaps a van trying to drive in the storm. It leaves destruction in its wake causing the Rovers roof to collapse in the storm! Kills off 5 characters, clears all dead wood and a few shockers and renovate the Rovers a bit. mwhahahhaha Okay that's a bit dark and unrealistic. To be honest I can't think of many stunts they can do!Emmerdale suits a storm in the country and EastEnders have a massive Square, Corrie's kind of had fires everywhere now! I guess we've truly ran out of stunts. Someone did make a rather awesome animation of a plane crashing down the Street and knocking the front of the Rovers off! ![]() Any novel stunt ideas for Corrie? |

Plane Crash that lands onto Tyrone/Fiz House & destroys it. I would appreciate that.
Whole street goes up in flames. Siege (similar to Brookside 1985 & 2002 ones). |

I always thought that a Streetcars cab crashing into Audreys Salon would be a good stunt.
Imagine the chaos. Maybe a big secret comes out in the aftermath. Car crash into the salon and an explosion |

Perhaps they could do one were Lloyd is drink driving and on his way back to the street, loses control of the wheel and crashes into Audrey's salon leaving Fiz trapped under a pile of rubble, unconscious whilst she was having her hair done. Several members of the street rush to the rescue of Audrey, Maria, David and the Fenshaw twins. Upon hearing from Audrey that Fiz is still inside, Sean rushes to her rescue, but unknown to him, the petrol tank is leaking and a broken hair dryer sparks up, sets the petrol alight and BOOM. The new producer makes his mark.
The same user posted by the OP also gave us a little idea of what it'll be like ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9M9FjjrKvU Edit: Wow snap Matt! I was typing all this up before i read your post. |

Sadly, the hairdryer's claims couldn't work their magic on Fiz's hair. |

Why settle for a car? Why not go for the Weatherfield Wayfarer bus crashing into the salon?
In 'story' terms it's got the potential for more characters being involved. Some characters could be passengers on the bus and there could also be people waiting at the bus stop just beside the salon. |

With the new set, there's more scope for bigger stunts now too!

It's a lovely, sunny day and Dev, Fiz, Sean and Michelle all decide to have a picnic on the red rec. They're just opening the buttie tin when BAM a Russian spy satellite drops out of orbit and squashes them. On hearing this, The media rush to Coronation street to interview the devastated locals, but due to a defective brake job at Kevin's Autos the Weatherfield Gazette press car veers off the road and crashes into Audrey's salon, killing Sopheh and Maddeh.
A tragedy :'(

Corrie could have a siege, then followed by a helicopter being shot down by the people trying to get away & it crashes on the front of the street, killing Sophie, Maddie & Fiz.

Rita has half a shandy with her lunch. Cut to 12 hours later she stumbles out of the pub barely able to stand, and gets behind the wheel of her car, thus kicking off a week long special of 'Rita's Rampage'.

Yes indeed, UK Soaps pride themselves in being a reflection (if slightly concentrated) of real-life and down our way, every week there's at least one helicopter dropping out of the sky and an armed siege of the local shop. I've also lost count of the number of times that the local pub has exploded or someone has been thrown off a balcony or crushed to death in a car or someone's sister has turned out to be their father or some otherwise decent woman has slept with some gangster to pay off a family debt.
Come on soaps, catch up with what going on in the real world! |

A winters evening and a storm descends across Manchester.... lightening hits the street, with a bolt hitting the tree outside the salon...the tree falls and smashes through the front of the rovers....trapping many residents, this leaves the roof and fist floor fradile and boom the roof caves in, killing 5, this sets off a fire as candles spill onto the vodka bottles. (just small fires)

A storm could be an awesome idea for the upcoming January stunt.
