“When the fire is finally put out, the Rovers will stand in ruins,” an insider claimed. “Next thing, the pub bursts into flames.”
It is the first time news of the fire has been confirmed by Coronation Street following last month’s newspaper reports.
The Rovers will be rebuilt on a bigger scale after it is destroyed by the fire.
