Baffled Corrie fans flock to Twitter after noticing same thing about the Underworld factory

Coronation Street fans have taken to Twitter to air their confusion after noticing the same thing about Underworld. The iconic knicker factory, which was built in 1990 bought by Mike Baldwin back in 1997, was on its knees just a few years ago when it was forced to close after being ransacked.

Then in 2019 the roof collapsed, killing bride-to-be Rana Habeeb who was trapped inside, after owner Carla Barlow was warned that the structure was in dire need of repair. And later that year it was set on fire by arsonist Hope Stape.

As well as being a death trap, Underworld is a big source of employment for the residents of Coronation Street. And soap viewers are baffled that the previously struggling Underworld currently appears to be flourishing with an 'endless moneypot' and jobs aplenty.
