Liddiment was keen to modernise the programme, feeling that it risked falling behind its rivals. He began by abandoning the use of film when shooting on location and instead recording everything on videotape using new lightweight OB cameras. The change occurred with Episode 2807 (22nd February 1988). He also arranged for the Street to be given more studio space, allowing more sets in each episode. However, Bill Podmore remained the main creative force behind the programme throughout the year, and Liddiment and Watson did not take full charge of the programme until the beginning of 1989.

New Rovers cleaner Sandra Stubbs, played by Sally Watts, was the only main character introduced, while Dawn Acton replaced Holly Chamarette as Tracy Barlow, becoming the third actress to play the role. This time, Tracy was absent for a mere nine months between heads. Meanwhile, Peter Baldwin joined the main cast after 12 years playing Derek Wilton on an occasional basis, Nigel Pivaro returned as Terry Duckworth for five months before leaving again at the end of the year, Amanda Barrie returned after six years for another short stint as Alma Sedgewick, and Helene Palmer left after ten years playing factory worker Ida Clough. The Granada Studios Tour launched, giving fans an opportunity to visit the real sets used on some Granada productions. Its most popular feature was Coronation Street's outdoor set. The tour lasted until 1999.
