New pictures have offered a glimpse at a dramatic rooftop confrontation which will mark Coronation Street’s 60th anniversary. The images show Yasmeen Metcalfe on the roof of a house with her granddaughter Alya Nazir. The actors, stunt doubles and stunt coordinators had to self isolate and undergo regular coronavirus testing throughout the two-week shoot. Behind the scenes pictures show the cast members standing on a walkway which has been attached to the mock-up of the roof. In September 2010, Coronation Street was recognised as the world’s longest-running soap and was listed in the Guinness World Records.
