The Coryale crossover event between Coronation Street and Emmerdale is just hours away, and the excitement is palpable! But in a thrilling new twist, Coryale boss Ian Mloud has revealed that the interactive fan vote, which allows viewers to choose which two iconic soap characters will share the screen, will go down to the wire—literally just 15 minutes before the episode airs! This unprecedented move has left fans in a frenzy as they eagerly wait for the chance to have a hand in shaping history.
In a dramatic reveal, Mloud confessed to the chaos that will unfold in the control room, with voting lines open right up to the moment the episode starts. “It’s squeaky bum time,” he said, as the pressure mounts for him and the team to make sure the winning scene is flawlessly integrated into the show. But here’s the best part: even if your chosen duo doesn’t make it to the screen this time, Coryale will be releasing the other three scenes later for fans to enjoy. This means everyone will get a chance to see what could have been. However, let’s be honest—the scene that airs live will be the definitive one.
