The changes to ITV’s soap scheduling, which launched with Corriedale on 6th January, saw both shows switch to a consistent half-hour slot at the same time every weekday, with Emmerdale moving to an 8pm slot permanently, followed by Corrie at 8.30pm.
Instead, ITV1 will be showing the Carabao Cup semi final between Newcastle United and Manchester City from 7.30pm to 10.25pm.
However, fans needn’t worry too much: both Corrie and Emmerdale will make their comeback in their usual slots on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week.
"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: "No more moaning that they are shifting Corrie around because of the football and nobody knows when it is on – all that kind of stuff. We all know where we are up to now – 8pm to 9pm everyday of the week."
