Coronation Street<\/a> and Emmerdale<\/a> spoilers follow.<\/p>\n

Soap fans may be confused that Coronation Street and Emmerdale aren’t on ITV1 and ITVX today. But don’t fret, as both shows will be back very soon.<\/p>\n

Amid recent chaotic schedule changes<\/a> due the sports fixtures and other reasons, tonight’s episodes are off-air due to the England v Uruguay international friendly game on ITV1, coverage of which begins at 7pm.<\/p>\n

However, to make up for the loss the shows will instead air rare Sunday episodes this weekend<\/a>, Emmerdale beginning at 7pm followed by Corrie at 7.30pm.<\/p>\n

Events will take a potentially pivotal turn in Weatherfield<\/a> in Sunday’s episode, with villain Theo set to be caught out by Gary over his abuse of Todd. As the scales fall from his eyes after Sarah points to what’s going on, Gary accompanies Todd into the flat, where Theo shouts abuse only to realise his mask has slipped.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in the Dales<\/a> Joe orders workmen to demolish everything in a Butlers Farm field, including Holly’s memorial, while Tracy hopes Cain will make it in time to say goodbye to his granddaughter before departing the village.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, both shows are set to air next Easter Sunday as well<\/a>, which follows a week of chaotic schedule changes due to sports fixtures and Vera repeats. However, the following week things appear to be returning to normal schedule-wise.<\/p>\n

Corrie and Emmerdale were given a shake-up earlier this year with the introduction of half-hour episodes as part of a “soap power hour”<\/a> between 8pm and 9pm, five days a week.<\/p>\n

ITV’s Managing Director of Media and Entertainment Kevin Lygo explained that the changes are “viewer-led”, with the broadcaster aiming to present the shows in the “most digestible way”.<\/p>\n

“In a world where there is so much competition for viewers’ time and attention, and viewing habits continue to change, we believe this is the right amount of episodes that fans can fit into their viewing schedule, to keep up to date with the shows,” he added.<\/p>\n
