Two soap favourites are finally sharing the screen, and honestly, it feels like one of those moments fans never thought would actually happen. Coronation Street’s DS Lisa Swain and Emmerdale’s Aaron Dingle are coming together, and both Vicky Myers and Danny Miller have been opening up about what this Corriedale crossover really means to them and why viewers should pay close attention.
Vicky Myers Says This Crossover Felt Huge From the Start
Vicky Myers has stepped into this crossover as Lisa Swain felt like something really special. She said being part of such a bold, history-making episode, especially during Coronation Street’s 65th year, was amazing. Even while filming, she knew this wasn’t just another episode. She admitted the script got her excited straight away. Once she saw how the two soap worlds collide, who ends up involved, and how the characters bounce off each other, she thought, “Wow.”
She also hinted that what happens that night doesn’t just end there, it has real consequences, which is exactly what soap fans love. Vicky also shared how keen she was to get started once everything was confirmed. This crossover had been planned for a long time, and she made a point of praising both the Corrie and Emmerdale teams for working so hard to make it happen. She said meeting new cast members and crew was exciting, and the atmosphere on set was genuinely lovely.
Danny Miller Calls It A Dream Moment for Corriedale Fans
Danny Miller was just as excited to be involved as Emmerdale’s Aaron Dingle. He said he was “made up” that Aaron is part of the Corriedale episode. He admitted it felt extra special for him. Being from Manchester, Danny explained that Coronation Street has always been a big deal in his house, just like Emmerdale. So seeing the two shows come together felt like a brilliant idea.
He was honest about the filming too. The night shoots were tiring, especially with young kids at home. But he said they were also a lot of fun. Working with the Coronation Street team was a highlight for him. And he said he couldn’t wait to see how the episode plays out, especially with both shows’ storylines running side by side. In the episode, Lisa Swain and Aaron Dingle are thrown together during a dark and stormy night after a crash.
With both Vicky Myers and Danny Miller clearly buzzing about this crossover, it doesn’t feel like a gimmick at all. Instead, it feels like a proper soap moment. Two strong characters meeting under intense circumstances could ripple through both Coronation Street and Emmerdale long after the episode ends.
