We don't know yet, it ended with just a look at who may be stuck / in danger / hurt. So go for it :-)

Sorry I'll add to that, they may be one small spolier, but the rest is all just guessing

Quite a lot of speculation but I don't really believe anyone 'knows' for sure :o)

Excellent scenes, weren't they ? I was worried that it would all look a little cheesy, but I was very impressed.

i thought it was brill! As a life-long corrie fan, i too wa a bit worried that it would look silly.
I thought the explosion was good, and for a moment i actually forgot about the tram. I thought, Oh is that it?
So to see it charging along the track was a bit of a surprise - but I didn't expect the second carriage to flip like it did. I was as shocked as Ken!
My little boy said it looked like a big metal monster, crashing down on poor old Rita!
I really enjoyed it.

dotty.

I guess after watchin enders 50p a shot fire in the Vic they decided to go for it

We sat here silent for a moment and then both turned to each other with a round-eyed "ooooooooo" afterwards. :o)

I shan't be on AB at 7.30 tonight, for definite !

ITN 'interviewing' Corrie characters.

How dumb is that? Reality meets fiction - rather like Answerbank.

It's a soap, I say, it's a soap.

I have to totally disagree with you here crisgal, JTH, pinki I think it was complete p!sh. The explosions weren't too bad but the tram crash looked like a really naff B movie. As for it flipping into the air that was just laughable and how anyone could take it seriously as a piece of drama astounds me.

MissN - I sat through an episode of Santa Barbara (US soap) where an 'earthquake' was played out solely by the actors jiggling and moving unsteadily about whilst the cameramen swung their cameras around............:o)
(Props in the background stayed amusingly still)

For a soap opera, I still say it was well-done. I shouldn't think it will ever rival anything in The Matrix and nor should it have to !

well i certainly wasn't expecting anything like a c-movie, necer mind a b-movie! seeing as how it's a tv programme, i thought it was very well done and has come a long way since it's beginnings, whilst retaining its charm
I think it was a great way to celebrate 50 fab years.
