Viewers of the programme took to an official forum to express their pet peeve, making a "request to Corrie" to drop the excessive use of stunts. Coronation Street is well-known for its use of special events every so often with notable ones being the fire at Platt's house and the tram crash.
Corrie fans slam ITV bosses for 'overdone' stunts and say they 'don't look good anymore' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Coronation Street (@coronationstreet) Taking to the Coronation Street Reddit , one fan made a "request to Corrie". They told ITV bosses: "The recent budget cuts aren't Kate Brooks's fault, the recent exits and cuts started way before her. "It's not really fair, but please corrie, learn that you no longer have the funding from ITV you once had.
"You cannot do these stunts and make them look good anymore. Know your limitations." Other users were quick to agree with another person penning: "Plus they’re so overdone now.
"These set-pieces lose all impact when the show so routinely relies on them. Putting more focus on the character-driven would aid the show and the budget!"
