CORONATION Street will air a special episode on Sunday night after axing this week's Wednesday outing.

The ITV soap will not air this Wednesday but will instead broadcast a special Sunday night episode before the big changes kick in.

Matches from The FA Cup will see the soaps moved around all week with none airing on Tuesday night.

On Wednesday only Emmerdale will broadcast with the soap airing again the following day alongside EastEnders.

And on Friday night there will be hour-long episodes of all three of the main soaps.

Coronation Street will also air a special episode on Sunday to catch-up ahead of the schedule shake-up.

From next week all three soaps will begin airing at new times.

Emmerdale will move to a nightly 7.30pm slot – with an hour-long episode on Thursdays.

Corrie meanwhile will air Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings for an hour at 8pm

SOAPS CHAOS

HEARTBREAKING

The Friday episode has been dropped.

It will mean a permanent soap clash between Emmerdale and EastEnders.

It is likely to spell disaster for EastEnders in the overnight ratings – but BBC bosses insist the show will catch up in iPlayer streaming views.
