WARNING: Christmas Approaching

(This post was originally posted by Stevie Dawson on the Coronation Street Blog in December 2017, reposted to this blog with permission.)



I have read with despair some of the upcoming storylines as we approach Christmas on Coronation Street. Some are speculation but others have been confirmed. They will be gripping, well written episodes I’m sure, but I’m struggling to get into the Christmas spirit as it is, and what with all the death and heartbreak we are told to expect, it might take me a while longer!

We've had this kind of media coverage to come to terms with over the Autumn:



It would appear the winter season is set to be a dark and dangerous one for our Weatherfield favourites, let’s hope happier times follow.

I’ve always loved Christmas on Corrie. Songs around the bar of the rovers, the twinkling Christmas trees in every house, sometimes we are even treated to snow and a nativity miracle. But there’s always something to go and spoil it. A tram crash here, a murder there. Why can’t it be a happy time, just for a few weeks? In the fantasy world I live in, this is what Christmas on the cobbles looks like. Enjoy my two minutes of Corrie-Christmas-ness with all the sad bits taken out: 


Enjoy the festive season, and Happy 10th Birthday Coronation Street Blog!
