Coronation Street Launches Online Spin-Off

Coronation Street has launched a new online spin-off entitled Streetcar Stories. The four-part series is based around the late-night antics of cab drivers Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) and Lloyd Mullaney (Craig Charles). According to reports, the first episode is available on the show’s official website as of today while the next three will be scheduled out over the next two weeks. Fans need not fear though as the miniseries, which appears to be more comedy than drama, has been penned by the soap’s scriptwriter Chris Fewtrell. The online series is based around Steve and Lloyd's antics.
