This week's ITV schedule has been given a shake-up as the channel gets set to air coverage of the Rugby World Cup, with Emmerdale and Coronation Street's usual time slots being changed. <\/p>\n
New schedules have been released for ITV1, showing that the first week of September has some one-off changes to regular timings with soap lovers having to tune in at different times throughout the week. <\/p>\n
Both Emmerdale and Coronation Street will air as usual on Monday 4 September, but on Tuesday Emmerdale will air at 7pm with an hour-long episode of the soap. <\/p>\n
ITV Evening News will therefore be airing in a shorter 30-minute time slot to make way for the long episode. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Soap fans are in for another treat on Tuesday, as the hour-long episode of Emmerdale will then be followed by this year's National Television Awards at 8pm. <\/p>\n
On Wednesday 5 September, ITV's usual schedule will be in place but on Thursday timings will change again, with Coronation Street airing from 9pm until 10pm. <\/p>\n
Both Emmerdale and Coronation Street will be off air on Friday 7 September, as ITV will be airing live coverage of the Rugby World Cup 2023 game between France and New Zealand. <\/p>\n
Despite the changes, both soaps will still air for the same amount of time as usual, thanks to Emmerdale's hour-long episode and Corrie's Thursday evening slot. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Both soaps have some huge storylines in the pipeline for autumn and winter, and it seems like over the coming weeks things are about to get much more dramatic. <\/p>\n
In Weatherfield, the Stephen Reid serial killer storyline is beginning to build up and it seems like it's only a matter of time before he's caught, which will no doubt shock Coronation Street residents. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile over in the Yorkshire Dales, the love triangle involving Mackenzie Boyd, Chloe Harris and Charity Dingle is just getting messier. <\/p>\n
Tensions and emotions are continuing to rise, and it seems drama is going to continue to build up until an explosive week of episodes in October. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Earlier this year, Emmerdale producer Jane Hudson teased a big storyline for Charity in October, as part of Super Soap Week.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think with that story, it\u2019s safe to say the viewers know we do Super Soap Week in October,\u201d Jane told Inside Soap. \u201cIf there is ever a plot to explode around that time, it\u2019s a love triangle that involves Charity. So, I would watch this space for another couple of months.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
