Coronation Street and Emmerdale<\/a> have shared first look pictures of the long-awaited crossover episode, Corriedale, which is set to air on ITV<\/a> in early 2026.<\/p>\n

The new photos reveal Corrie’s DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) and Emmerdale’s Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller<\/a>) as the first two iconic characters to be confirmed as starring in the drama-filled hour long special.<\/p>\n

Taken on the first of a series of exhilarating night shoots, the photos show actors Vicky Myers and Danny Miller together in a rare behind the scenes moment before action was called.

Over in the cobbles, Lisa Swain’s world<\/a> was turned upside down after the return from the dead of her police wife ex Becky. Now it’s been revealed she’s the next “big villain” of Weatherfield – what will happen in the weeks to come?<\/p>\n

In the Dales, Aaron has had his fair share of relationship drama, recently seeing off his ex husband, killer John Sugden. He’d hoped to get back with the love of his life, Robert Sugden, but with his secret prison husband Kev turning up, who knows what’s in store…<\/p>\n

Speaking of her role in the episode, Vicky said: \u201cTo be involved in this unique, bold, innovative, not to mention history-making episode, in Coronation Street<\/a>\u2019s 65th year, (well, when we are filming it at least), is fantastic. When I read the script and found out how two worlds collide, who is involved and how the characters interact, not to mention the impact the events of the night will have\u2026 Wow. It\u2019s going to be unmissable.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued: \u201cI couldn\u2019t wait to get started actually. This has been in the pipeline for quite some time and the talented team behind the scenes at Coronation Street and Emmerdale<\/a>, has worked tirelessly to make this happen.<\/p>\n

“They\u2019re incredible. I\u2019m really looking forward to meeting, and working with, people I haven\u2019t met or worked with before, both in front of and behind the camera. It\u2019s incredibly exciting and the camaraderie is great. It\u2019s going to be epic.\u201c<\/p>\n

Danny added that he was ‘made up’ his character Aaron was part of the episode.<\/p>\n

“I am made up that Aaron is in the Corriedale episode. Originally from Manchester, Coronation Street has always been an iconic show in our house just as much as Emmerdale,” he said.<\/p>\n

“So to cross them both over is a great idea. The night shoots have been full on with having young kids but a lot of fun and it’s been great working with the Corrie team.<\/p>\n

“I can’t wait to see how the episode plays out with the separate storylines from both Emmerdale and Corrie. It\u2019s going to be epic and every soap fans dream\u201d<\/p>\n
