Weatherfield is a fictional town based on Salford, Lancashire, which is the setfting for the British ITV soap opera "Coronation Street".
 Much of Weatherfield has been seen by viewers throughout the years, though the primary focus from the viewer's perspective is the Coronation Street, a cobbled street where many of the programme's characters live.
 Weatherfield areas are often shot on location around Manchester, as its filming studios, the Granada Studios complex on Quay Street in Manchester city centre (closed 2013) and its new set MediaCityUK in Salford Quays (opened 2014), only house the outdoor sets of Coronation Street and its immediate surrounding streets.

 Michelle and Steve's marriage is strained and Michelle kicks Steve out when she thinks he does not care about his dead son.
 However, Michelle allows him back after talking to Steve's mother Liz (Beverley Callard), who also lost a premature child, Katie, 25 years before.

"The Road to Coronation Street" was written by Daran Little, a long-time archivist on "Coronation Street" who became a scriptwriter.
 At the time, however, Little was a scriptwriter for "Coronation Street"' s rival, "EastEnders", broadcast on BBC One.
 Though "Coronation Street" is, and always has been, broadcast on ITV, a competing network, the idea of documenting the show on the anniversary of its half century running was picked up by its natural rival, the BBC.
 It has, however, been repeated several times on ITV3 and, on the occasion of Tony Warren's death, ITV.
