The interior sets for Barlow's Buys, the Prima Doner kebab shop and the Elliot & Son butchers are also filmed within the actual building like the previous set . The Underworld factory and Street Cars join them and can be filmed within the exterior . The Underworld factory was previously filmed within its building on the backlot at Granada Studios . Furthermore, for the first time in the show's history, The Rovers Return has a partial interior to allow camera shots looking into the exit to the rear yard and smoking area . </P> <P> On 25 August 2014 viewers saw Tyrone Dobb's bedroom at Number 9 for the first time . Previous to this one interior bedroom set was used for the entire Street . For the stunt which saw Tyrone fall through the ceiling from the attic (after Todd Grimshaw ordered 12mm chipboard instead of 14mm and blackmailed Gary Windass to use it, therefore failing to meet building regulations) the interior set was constructed over a period of four weeks and housed inside the empty shell of Roy's Rolls . A behind the scenes video was uploaded after the first instalment of the Bank Holiday episodes aired to the website of Coronation Street . </P> <P> On 29 November 2013 the new set was officially unveiled .
