'Coronation Street' filming halted by torrential rain

Rain has been interrupting Coronation Street's filming over the past week, a report has claimed.

Cast members are working overtime to ensure scenes are completed on schedule, according to The Sun.



Outdoor shots are being consistently delayed due to storms and torrential showers.

A supposed source said: "We're not afraid of rain in Weatherfield but this is getting ridiculous."

Michelle Keegan, who plays Tina McIntyre, wrote on Twitter yesterday morning: "Just filmed the 1st scene on the street n it's taken 2 hours because of the rain!!"

She added in the message: "I think I'm in for a loooooooong day!"

Coronation Street regularly airs five half-hour episodes per week on ITV1.
