Sharon Marshall spilled the ground breaking news on This Morning telling Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, “It’s the first time it’s ever been done. In November, we’re going to be having the world’s first soap crossover. Now for the first time, all five British soaps – and our continuing dramas – they’re all going to come together and tell the same story at the same time. That story is going to be climate change.”
Look for Casualty, Coronation Street, Doctors, EastEnders, Emmerdale, Holby City and Hollyoaks all to come together to tell a story for the ages.

She went on to say, “All of these people have been talking about it in secret for months and months to make this work and what they’re each going to do is film a scene, have a reference that is going to cover a different aspect of climate change and – this is the fun bit – a soap first.”
“You’re going to see all the programs do a nod to the other and characters will start popping up from one soap in another soap on screen. That has never been done before.”

We don’t want to give all the details away just yet but we do have some specular dish to gnaw on in the meantime. According to the Mirror, “A social media video featuring two of Emmerdale’s residents will also be shown to Corrie characters, while one of Doctors stars will be shown to Corrie characters. Meanwhile, Casualty will be discussed in The Woolpack and a social media clip from Weatherfield will be talked about in The Queen Vic.”
Emmerdale Executive Producer Jane Hudson is the exec with the genius idea and took the proposition to her rivals. She said, “Never before have all five soaps and both continuing dramas come together and united in telling one story. And we certainly haven’t seen characters pop up in other shows before. This is a real treat for our audience, whilst also allowing us to get across a very important message.”
Hollyoaks exec Lucy Allan said of the epic confluence, “We know how important climate change and environmental issues are to our youthful audience, and to all soap viewers. It has been great to work together on an engaging way to, hopefully, inspire conversations about issues that are so important.”
