Coronation Street’s Catherine Tyldesley has shared a series of funny behind-the-scenes snaps with her soap co-stars Samia Longchambon and Shayne Ward.

Now Catherine, 34, has given fans a glimpse at her filming the scenes of her and Aidan’s disastrous wedding day with Samia and Shayne.

In one photo Cath and Shayne can be seen practising a stunt hinting there could be a huge stunt about to happen in this weeks’ episodes of the soap.

The star captioned the shot: “#behindthescenes stunt rehearsal for @shaynetward and I … assuming that window ledge would be a breeze … 🙈🙈🙈#corrie #wedding.”

Catherine then uploaded several snaps of her and Samia’s massive fountain fight.

In the first the pair can seen in fits of laughter as Catherine struggled to climb out of the fountain.

The mum-of-one wrote: “#behindthescenes … bloody love this shot. @samia_longchambon laughing her head off because my dress was so heavy I couldn’t get out … cheers mate 😂😂 #loveyoureally xxx #finalcountdown #wedding #corrie.”

In another Catherine is seen with a towel wrapped around her shoulders suggesting the fountain water was freezing.

The explosive storyline has been entertaining viewers this week after the highly-anticipated wedding day has been approaching for weeks.

Eva has been taking Aidan for everything he’s got for the past few months after discovering his affair with Maria.

The barmaid finally decided to expose Aidan in front of all their guests just before exchanging their vows.

As Eva revealed the news Maria took the opportunity to drop the bombshell that Eva had lied about being pregnant leaving Aidan devastated.

As both Maria and Aidan left the ceremony, Eva followed Maria outside.

This led to a massive cat fight resulting in Eva pushing Maria into the fountain as the guests watched on.

Catherine previously revealed the scenes took two-and-a-half-hours to film.

She told The Sun Online: “It’s the most action-packed wedding ever and the stunts were incredible – we had some big burly guys on standby.

“Samia and I were shattered by the end as we were constantly trying to drown each other. I had six wedding dresses in total and they were so heavy!”

In the latest episode of the soap viewers saw Eva begging Aidan to forgive her for faking the pregnancy.

But it seems in the next few episodes the drama continues to unfold as Catherine hinted things will be occurring at “great heights” suggesting there could be another huge stunt on the way.

Even though the pair seemed to be considering putting all the drama behind them in the recent episode it appears this could be very short-lived.

Last night the show ended with Johnny Connor carrying his new wife Jenny into the Underworld factor only to find that the ceiling had been demolished.

And it was all part of Eva’s scheme to ruin Aidan’s life.

Talking about how things could starting taking a turn for the worse Catherine recently said: “Aidan and Eva really do love each other. Is there a way of them making up in the future? I want to say yes.

“When Aidan sees Underworld for him, at that moment, it’s game over. She’s already done so much to him but when it affects his family, and he’s a strong family guy, it’s a step too far.”
