The World Cup 2026 is set to begin on June 11, with coverage airing on ITV until July 19. As a result, the schedules for Coronation Street and Emmerdale will face significant disruption over the coming weeks.
This evening, both soaps will not air on ITV1, nor will they be available on ITVX or YouTube, as ITV broadcasts the England vs Ukraine Women’s World Cup Qualifier. Viewers should consult the updated schedule for the period from tomorrow until Monday, June 15.
In recent Emmerdale storylines, Doctor Caitlin Todd continued to pressure Charity Dingle over a £100,000 debt. Charity attempted to raise the money by robbing the Home Farm safe and stealing items from the depot, but only managed to give Todd £30,000. Todd then threatened to reveal a secret about baby Leyla’s parentage at Sarah Sugden’s 21st birthday party if the full amount was not paid within 24 hours.
On Sunday, harrowing scenes aired as Doctor Todd sexually assaulted Charity. The following day, Charity reported the attack to the police, and DS Reid informed her that Caitlin would soon be arrested for sexual assault.
Meanwhile, on Coronation Street, Tyrone Dobbs went to the police station to provide information about the night Theo Silverton was killed. He had previously lied about his whereabouts, but his guilt grew after learning that Summer Spellman had been imprisoned for murder. Tyrone came forward with his secret, hoping it would secure Summer’s release.
