EastEnders fans tuning into BBC iPlayer today were met with disappointment as the latest episode was nowhere to be found. The beloved soap opera, which usually drops early on the streaming platform, was conspicuously absent, leaving viewers questioning the reason behind the delay.
What Happened to EastEnders on BBC iPlayer?
The BBC has confirmed that today's episode of EastEnders was postponed due to a scheduling conflict. Instead of the usual early release, the episode will air at its regular broadcast time on BBC One later this evening.
Why the Change in Schedule?
While the BBC hasn't provided a detailed explanation, insiders suggest the delay may be linked to last-minute editorial adjustments or technical issues. The broadcaster has assured fans that the episode will still be available for catch-up shortly after its TV premiere.
Fan Reactions on Social Media
Dedicated viewers took to social media to express their frustration, with many questioning why the show wasn't uploaded as usual. Some fans rely on the early iPlayer release to watch before the evening broadcast, making the delay particularly inconvenient.
When Can You Watch the Latest Episode?
For those eager to catch up with Albert Square's latest drama:
- The episode will air on BBC One at its usual time (7:30 pm GMT)
- It will be available on iPlayer shortly after broadcast
- Normal early releases are expected to resume with future episodes
The BBC has apologised for any inconvenience caused and thanked fans for their patience while the schedule returns to normal.
