Coronation Street is set for explosive scenes as one star announced ‘that’s a wrap’ as they shared behind-the-scenes filming snaps from a late night shoot
Coronation Street’s Channique Sterling-Brown, who plays Dee-Dee Bailey, has shared an exciting behind-the-scenes update from a late night shoot.
Soap fans will recall it’s been a tumultuous couple of days for the cobbles favourite after she rumbled fiancé Joel Deering’s reign of terror. Dee-Dee was all set to marry the Weatherfield solicitor before she discovered his dark secrets.
Joel, portrayed by Calum Lill, was the perpetrator behind the brutal attack on Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton). Joel manipulated Lauren into a relationship, showering her with gifts and money before becoming violent. When Lauren attempted to break things off, he assaulted her, leading her to go into hiding.
Dee-Dee was all set to marry the Weatherfield solicitor before she discovered his dark secrets.
Lauren was initially thought to be dead, but she made a dramatic comeback a few weeks ago, revealing not only that she was alive but also pregnant with Joel’s child. After being drugged by evil Joel, Lauren went into premature labour, with her baby son now in hospital as Joel threatens to apply for full custody.
Despite his actions, Joel has yet to face charges due to insufficient evidence, and he continues to torment Lauren and his ex, Dee-Dee, which resulted in her being forced to step down from her beloved solicitor job earlier this week.
Soap favourite Channique, 27, who plays Dee-Dee, has been teasing her fans with behind-the-scenes glimpses on Instagram, hinting at some intense upcoming drama, reports the Liverpool Echo. She recently wrapped up a night shoot, posting an early morning picture in her car with the cryptic caption: “That’s a wrap.” It remains to be seen whether these scenes will see Joel get his comeuppance but actor Calum was also involved in the filming.

Actor Calum also took to Instagram, revealing it was his birthday and marked the occasion with the night shoot. He shared a snap of Weatherfield at night with the caption: “Birthday B2B night shoot pt 1. Cheers Cozzar.” Amidst the dramatic scenes, Joel actor Calum recently cautioned fans that there’s more turbulence ahead for his character.
While on This Morning recently, he advised viewers: “I think one thing we’ve seen with Joel is he’s very selfish, driven and seems to lack empathy so I think the worst is yet to come from Joel, he’s only going to get worse.” When probed about potential further victims and if his character’s ex Dee-Dee is in harm’s way, Calum suggested: “Who knows? I think it could even get worse than you think!”
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and ITV X.
