Emmerdale and Coronation Street to air extra episodes TONIGHT after soap schedule chaos

ITV has announced they will air THREE episodes of Emmerdale tonight in a change to schedules.

The broadcaster and other channels have been continuously revising their published schedules following the death of Her Majesty The Queen.

Both Emmerdale and Coronation Street were axed from their usual timeslots to allow for extended news coverage.

However, in a bid to catch back up, ITV will screen three episodes of Emmerdale tonight.

This means fans will be caught up on the latest happenings in the countryside village of the Yorkshire Dales.

The triple bill will begin from 7:30pm and an hour of Coronation Street will follow at 9pm.

ITV reintroduced Emmerdale back into the schedule on Tuesday, while Coronation Street aired on Monday night at its usual time of 8pm.

TV disruption will continue into next week, with the National Television Awards being postponed until Thursday October 13.

Meanwhile, the BBC has announced that Strictly Come Dancing's launch will also not ago ahead as planned.

It's now expected to air on Saturday September 24.

Celebrity MasterChef's highly anticipated final has now been delayed by a week and will broadcast on Thursday September 22
