'Big Headache' for ITV
Coronation Street, the long-running beloved soap opera, is reportedly facing chaos as ITV struggles to fill the position of executive producer after the departure of current boss Iain MacLeod. This has left the show without a leader, causing turmoil behind the scenes.
'MacLeod Sandwich' Deters Potential Candidates
Sources have revealed that finding a replacement for Iain MacLeod has been challenging, with potential candidates hesitant to take on the role. The prospect of answering to Iain while working alongside his deputy and wife, Verity MacLeod, has been described as a 'MacLeod sandwich' that many are reluctant to be a part of.
Fans Express Frustration
Following Iain MacLeod's departure to take up a new role at ITV overseeing both Coronation Street and Emmerdale, fans of the show expressed their dissatisfaction with his tenure as boss. Some have called for a return to the show's roots, urging bosses to bring it 'back to basics.'
HOAR has reached out to ITV for comment on the current situation.
