Moving to Salford Quays...

Would be good if the old set is taken over by MOSI. People get to see it once more and money could be raised to pump into the museum facilities.

I think it was because they are going HD and that viewers would be able to see the joins.

And they're building it bigger for HD filming

The new set, on a 7.7 acre site, will replicate the appearance of the original Weatherfield but will be built on a larger scale to cater for the demands of high definition TV.
