ITV Shake-Up Alters Coronation Street Schedule This Week
Viewers have been alerted to a temporary change in the ITV schedule this week. Filmogaz.com can confirm one weekday episode of Coronation Street will move to the weekend.
ITV Shake-Up Alters Coronation Street Schedule This Week, prompting a rework of the usual broadcast slots. The change is driven by live sports coverage on ITV1.
Why the change
ITV is showing England vs Uruguay on Friday, March 27. Coverage starts at 7pm, with a 7.45pm kick-off.
The match occupies the channel’s prime evening hours. As a result, regular soap slots will be displaced.
Which shows are affected
Both Coronation Street and Emmerdale are impacted by the schedule shift. Their usual Friday showings will not air in the standard slots.
Broadcasters have added an extra episode on Sunday to compensate. Fans will not lose a week of storylines.
New broadcast times
Emmerdale will air earlier on Sunday at 7pm. Coronation Street will follow at 7.30pm on the same night.
| Day | Date | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | March 23 | 8.30pm |
| Tuesday | March 24 | 8.30pm |
| Wednesday | March 25 | 8.30pm |
| Thursday | March 26 | 8.30pm |
| Friday | March 27 | No episode |
| Sunday | March 29 | Coronation Street 7.30pm |
What viewers should do
Set reminders for the adjusted Sunday times if you usually watch on Friday. Check listings before tuning in on match night.
Filmogaz.com will monitor any further schedule updates from ITV. Fans can expect normal weekday broadcasts to resume next week.
