Ed Balls Had A Great Time Last Night Dancing On The Set Of "Coronation Street"

    And just touring around the set of Corrie.

    So last night got a little weird. The Mirror hosts an annual party for politicos at Labour's party conference after the leader has given his speech. This year, everyone went to the old Coronation Street set.

    And everyone, whether or not they watched the soap, was pretty excited to be there. To get people in the spirit of things, the Mirror created fantasy headlines sure to please the Labour crowd.

    The set was pretty much what you expected it to be.

    And actually, Ed Balls dancing was the most important thing that happened.

    The day before, the shadow chancellor gave his speech to the conference audience, focusing on Labour's economic policies should the party get elected. While other members of the shadow cabinet were limited to 700-word speeches, Balls got to speak for much longer. Perhaps that's what he was celebrating.

    Balls made sure to be pictured on the set of the famous street itself with his team.

    It looked like he was genuinely excited to be there.

    He told BuzzFeed News that he watched Coronation Street twice a week when he was younger.

    Other members of the shadow cabinet were around too, such as shadow business secretary Chuka Umunna, who posed with this year's winner of The Voice, Jermain Jackman.

    So what else happened on the Corrie set? Well, there was a band.
