Well as we thought Coronation Street was trying to pass off its 45th without much celebration, apparently it is launching a new Interactive service on Friday.

There is also a chance apparently to win tours of the street which is what caught my eye....

Hurrah.....Corrie goes 21st Century!

Any idea what sort of thing they'll be doing Nancy? How much control will I have with my big red button? Will I be able to control storylines from the comfort of my sofa? I do hope so. For one thing I would definitely have stopped Frankie from going round to Danny's flat and catching him in bed with Leanne

Seriously though, this sounds like it might have lots of potential. It would be great to see some more behind the scenes stuff. We don't get to see enough of that IMO.

As far as I know it is an interactive service on satellite boxes. From what I have been able to gather from various sources is that it will offer

A chance to catch up on episodes from previous weeks, and possibly previews of forth coming episodes.
Competition: First prize confirmed as Tour of the Street and lunch with a cast member
Inside news and gossip about up coming storylines

I'm not sure how this is all going to work seeing as ITV's interactive services are fairly limited at the moment. However as far as I am aware it is all go on Friday so I'll be interested to see what they are planning

I never thought I would get that excited about red button/interractive stuff but now I'm thinking about it and all the things Corrie could do with it, I can't wait

I hope there will be some cast interviews. Starting with Blanche if poss! As for giving away a tour of the street - I would sooooo like to win that. Mind you I'd probably get all over emotional and start crying in the Kabin or something equally embarrassing
