If you think Coronation Street is just pub drama and sidewalk drama, Corriedale will slap you in the face: this is a true disaster.

A multi-car crash, occurring in chaotic conditions, drags a host of characters into a life-or-death situation.

There’s no room for “making up after a fight,” because here, only two things matter: who’s still alive and who’s not.

The scene is depicted as a dark, smoke-filled painting, filled with screams, the clanging of metal, and the piercing sound of ambulance sirens.

Cars are mangled. Injured people lie motionless. Those still conscious frantically call out the names of loved ones, trying to crawl out of the wreckage. This is the kind of accident where a split-second delay in decision can cost you your loved one.

At the scene, characters accustomed to everyday drama now face real trauma: blood, broken bones, suffocation, the fear of death. Some try to remain calm to help others. Some scream hysterically because they can’t find their loved ones. Some are trapped and can only pray.
