We chose ‘The North’ as our Soap name because we wanted it to link with the place and be realistic to fit the Social Realism. We also wanted used Coronation Street to help and as they were named after the street it was filmed on we decided that as it was filmed in Manchester which is in the north of England we chose The North.

We used Itv2 because that is the channel that Coronation Street is shown on so we wanted to follow them as much as we could. The starting clip of the nail varnish and the shoes links in with the storyline of Cara the Flirt who is shown throughout the trailer.
