We\u2019ve been scrambling for scraps of Corriedale<\/a> information to whet our appetites beyond the promise of it being explosive and maybe containing a stunt \u2013 and finally we are fed. <\/p>\n

The teams at Coronation Street and Emmerdale are joining forces<\/a> for a history making hour long special at the start of January 2026<\/a>, and we can now confirm two of the two key characters at the centre of the action. <\/p>\n

Danny Miller<\/a> and Vicky Myers<\/a> will see their paths cross as Aaron Dingle<\/a> and DS Lise Swain for a fateful night that contains darkness. <\/p>\n

And it seems like the villains in their lives \u2013 Becky Swain (Amy Cudden) and on-the-run killer John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth)<\/a> may play a part. <\/p>\n

Metro recently spotted a big clue in Weatherfield police station showing a wanted poster for John<\/a> \u2013 and apparently there are other hints to look out for. <\/p>\n

The specifics of the overall arcs of the episode remain a closely guarded secret for now, but we can most likely expect further teasers of who will meet who in the genius concept. <\/p>\n

An excited Coronation Street spokesperson told us: \u2018What leads Lisa and Aaron to find their lives intertwined on a dark and foreboding night in January? <\/p>\n

\u2018And which other Coronation Street and Emmerdale favourites will feature in the action packed and climactic episode?<\/p>\n

\u2018While the exact plot is being kept under wraps, what we can confirm is a one off one hour spectacular, featuring explosive scenes, nail biting drama and never before seen interactions between some of the nation\u2019s most loved soap characters.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n

On what\u2019s due to be must see TV for any soap fan, Vicky enthused: \u2018To be involved in this unique, bold, innovative, not to mention history-making episode, in Coronation Street\u2019s 65th year, (well, when we are filming it at least), is fantastic. <\/p>\n

\u2018When I read the script and found out how two worlds collide, who is involved and how the characters interact, not to mention the impact the events of the night will have\u2026 Wow. It\u2019s going to be unmissable.<\/p>\n

\u2018I couldn\u2019t wait to get started actually. This has been in the pipeline for quite some time and the talented team behind the scenes at Coronation Street and Emmerdale, has worked tirelessly to make this happen. <\/p>\n

\t\t\"A
\n\t\tThe crossover will be a treat for soap fans (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

\u2018They\u2019re incredible. I\u2019m really looking forward to meeting, and working with, people I haven\u2019t met or worked with before, both in front of and behind the camera. It\u2019s incredibly exciting and the camaraderie is great. It\u2019s going to be epic.\u2019<\/p>\n

Talking about filming getting underway, Danny added:\u00a0\u2018I am made up that Aaron is in the Corriedale episode. Originally from Manchester, Coronation Street has always been an iconic show in our house just as much as Emmerdale. <\/p>\n

\u2018So to cross them both over is a great idea. The night shoots have been full on with having young kids but a lot of fun and it\u2019s been great working with the Corrie team. <\/p>\n

\u2018I can\u2019t wait to see how the episode plays out with the separate storylines from both Emmerdale and Corrie. It\u2019s going to be epic and every soap fan\u2019s dream.\u2019<\/p>\n
