Elsewhere, Iain spoke out about how the show is managing to continue despite new social distancing rules.
The boss said he was “proud” to have done the recent socially-distanced stunt, which fans will remember saw Gary Windass (Mikey North) run over.
He remarked: “I think the fact that we did the world’s first socially-distanced stunt was quite an achievement.
“We did it in the first week, we were back filming, but we just thought, ‘Actually, let’s give it a go.’
“We’re confident in our protocols and competent in our staff. And I think we can make it happen. And I personally was really proud of it,” Iain added.
