Coronation Street fans tuning in for their usual Wednesday night fix of drama from Weatherfield are in for a disappointment. ITV has pulled the beloved soap from its scheduled slot in a major schedule shake-up.
The channel has been forced to make changes to its regular programming due to extensive coverage of the UEFA Euro 2024 football tournament. Tonight's planned double-bill of episodes has been officially scrapped.
What's Replacing Corrie?
Instead of the goings-on on the cobbles, ITV1 will broadcast live coverage of Slovakia vs Romania in Group E of the European Championship. The match kicks off at 5 pm, significantly altering the evening's lineup.
This scheduling conflict means both Emmerdale and Coronation Street have been bumped from their prime-time positions to make way for the beautiful game.
When Will Coronation Street Be Back On?
Fear not, soap lovers. The schedule will return to normal soon. Coronation Street is set to make its comeback on Friday, June 28th, at 8 pm on ITV1 and the ITV Hub.
In the meantime, fans can get their fix by catching up on any missed episodes via the ITVX streaming service, where all recent dramas from the Street are available to watch on demand.
