ITV has unveiled a first look at the dramatic Coronation Street<\/a> and Emmerdale<\/a> crossover episode that is due to air in the New Year.<\/p>\n

The instalment, which will kickstart a new daily broadcast pattern for both flagship soaps<\/a>, will see our much-loved Weatherfield and Hotten locals come together for one special evening.<\/p>\n

Details on how this will be facilitated have been pretty scarce up until now, with a new trailer showing that a multi-vehicle pile-up will be at the epicentre of the action.<\/p>\n

It’s pretty safe to assume that criminal John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) will crop up in some respect, given wanted posters have been spotted in Weatherfield Police Station<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The drama takes place on a dark and stormy road near Hotten.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

It’s also been strongly implied that Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) is the ‘bridezilla’ that wedding planner Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper) is dealing with in Manchester.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens, it’s bound to be a night that changes lives forever. Lives are on the line as a horrific storm hits a dark, country road in Hotten, as a few familiar voices cry out…<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

How the pile-up happens remains to be seen.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

Alongside the already confirmed Vicky Myers and Danny Miller<\/a>, who play Lisa Swain and Aaron Dingle, the trailer shows that David Platt (Jack P Shepherd), Tracy McDonald (Kate Ford) and Dr Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) as the latest cast members to join the line-up.<\/p>\n

What exactly causes the disaster remains to be seen, but it’s not one to be missed.<\/p>\n

New pictures, alongside a combined logo, show a fire ball erupting from an overturned vehicle as someone lies on the floor.<\/p>\n

Another shows a silhouette of a man strolling past another overturned car, as a fire engine races towards the scene in a cloud of smoke.<\/p>\n

ITV has promised that Corriedale is “just the start of the drama”, with the aftermath giving us “murderous intent, death, destruction, closely-guarded secrets, and lies”.<\/p>\n

In October, Corrie producer Kate Brooks teased what was ahead.<\/a><\/p>\n

The episode will air in the New Year.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

“Filming’s been brilliant and we’ve got a brilliant director and scripts. The actors are loving it because it’s so different and unique from what they’ve ever done before,” she revealed.<\/p>\n

“The mood and camaraderie is really infectious!”<\/p>\n

She continued: “I can’t help but imagine what my mum is going to be like watching this episode. She’ll be so beside herself because as a soap fan, the idea of sitting down with your two favourite shows with all your favourite characters in this massive, unmissable piece of tele, it’s amazing.<\/p>\n

Luckily, emergency services aren’t far behind.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

“Everyone’s worked so hard on this behind the scenes. The cast have been amazing, but behind the scenes, it’s been quite a feat logistically to get everything in the right place.<\/p>\n

“It’s a testament to how hard and how passionate all people are. Everyone’s put their hearts and souls into it.”<\/p>\n
