Greater Manchester, UK - As ITV's veteran soap celebrates its 50th anniversary next year a report has claimed that Coronation Street is scheduled for demolition. Following the appointment of Archie Norman as ITV chairman, negotiations have begun again to relocate the soap's famous pub and cobbled streets to the £600m MediaCityUK development in Salford Quays. The proposals would see the cobbled streets of Weatherfield demolished and rebuilt at the new location as producers are keen to update the exterior of the set.
