Actors Worried About Their Future On the ITV Soap

Corrie actors are furious over changes this summer. Usually, they enjoy a lavish mid-year party. But now, trouble is brewing because show bosses are cutting back. Moreover, all the perks backstage have been axed. According to insider sources, Helen Worth and Bill Roache will now have to cover the costs of their own summer party.

There has been considerable discontent among the cast. The source revealed, “It’s one the biggest shows in the UK, and the stars think a few free drinks is the least they should be getting.” The decision to scale back on expenses has affected various aspects of the soap, including the annual party.

The party was traditionally held at a prestigious venue in the northern city. The source stated, “Everyone will still go, but they are not happy about it.” Additionally, it’s been noted previously that the soap has adjusted its filming approach, such as reducing the number of scenes for the cast.

Moreover, show bosses have reduced the amount of extras used and have implemented more continuous filming schedules. The insider revealed, “Many of them are panicking about what these cuts mean for their futures.” With over 50 cast members in total, some have not had filming opportunities for weeks.

Behind the scenes, there is a growing sense of unease as people openly express their concerns. The makers’ efforts to reduce additional costs respond to industry-wide pressures. Reducing the number of cast members in scenes has, it’s believed, freed up the budget for expenses like hair and lighting.

Additionally, there’s been a shift towards utilising more in-house staff rather than freelancers for various roles. Will things turn back to normal in the near future?
