It looks like there could be trouble ahead in 2020 as the Coronation Street cast have been spotted filming an accident involving a coach in Blackpool.

Cast including Rita Tanner, Jenny Connor, Mary Taylor, and Sally Metcalfe have been seen filming on location.

Fans of the show know Rita has never had any luck when it comes to transportation in Blackpool and it looks like next year will be no different.

Over the last few weeks, viewers have seen Rita struggling with loneliness this Christmas as all of her friends have plans with their family.

The post was captioned “Happy #SaturdaySneakPeek everyone! Any idea what Rita, Jenny, Sally and Mary are doing on a coach!? #Corrie #Exclusive #FirstLook.”

Fans of the show know this isn’t the first time Rita has had an accident in Blackpool.

An ambulance is called as Sean makes a dash to the paramedics who make their way to the injured.

Back in 1989, whilst running away from abusive partner Alan Bradley, Jenny’s father, she was almost hit by a tram.

She ran across the tramline and whilst she narrowly avoided being hit, Alan was struck and killed.

Will they all leave Blackpool unharmed this time?

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.
