Albion Market was a British soap opera, set in a covered market in Salford, in the northwest of England. It was intended as a companion to fellow ITV soap Coronation Street, starting at 7:00 pm on Fridays and Sundays. However, due to continued troubles and ratings competition from the BBC's Open All Hours, the series was only broadcast for one year, before being replaced with additional episodes of Coronation Street.
