In the Coronation crossover, viewers can expect a 150-minute long episode from the show's set in Manchester on May 4th. Alison will be joined by her co-host Dermot O'Leary to present the show at Weatherfield, for a right royal knees up.

Joined by Corrie stars Jodie Pregner and Sally Ann Matthews, Alison posed for a super smiley photo outside of the iconic Rovers Return Inn pub.

Martin Frizell, Executive Producer, This Morning said, "We've had this idea for a while now and I'm thrilled it's coming to life. Whilst we have taken This Morning to various locations throughout the years, I think to have two of ITV's biggest and longest running shows coming together like this for a unique event to celebrate and mark such a momentous moment in history will be a huge treat for viewers and fans alike."
