EXPLOSIVE FIRST LOOK AT UNIQUE CROSSOVER SOAP CORRIEDALE
Two worlds collide. One hour. One night. Everything changes
Strict embargo: 0001 Monday December 1st
ITV has released a dramatic teaser trailer giving viewers an explosive preview of groundbreaking crossover soap episode Corriedale.
For the first time it has been revealed that a multi vehicle pile up is at the centre of the drama that sees the worlds of Coronation Street and Emmerdale collide for one night only.
The atmospheric trailer shows the aftermath of the crash on a dark and stormy country road near the village of Hotten.
Desperate voices call for help in the darkness as the emergency services arrive. Fans of both soaps will recognise them as David Platt, Tracy Barlow, Liam Cavanagh, and Aaron Dingle. Corrie actors Jack P Shepherd and Kate Ford, plus Emmerdale’s Johnny McPherson join Danny Miller and Vicky Myers as names revealed to be amongst the cast of the one hour episode.
But what has brought the residents of Weatherfield across the Pennines to Yorkshire, and how have the characters from the two soaps ended up in the catastrophic collision?
The special episode, which will air in early January 2026, is a celebration of the soap genre and will launch ITV’s new ‘soap power hour’ scheduling pattern for Coronation Street and Emmerdale.
Corriedale is just the start of the drama as the aftermath of the crash gives rise to fear, murderous intent, death, destruction, closely-guarded secrets, and lies.
Life in Emmerdale and Weatherfield will never be the same again!
