EastEnders pulled from BBC One in latest schedule shake-up kicking in next week
BBC One viewers will have to get accustomed to a huge change in schedule.
EastEnders faces new havoc next week as the World Cup begins.
Four years after France's victory, the football tournament will take place from November 20 to December 18.
This year, the World Cup will be controversially held in Qatar, with matches airing on both ITV and BBC One.
However, this means soap schedules will be all over the shop in upcoming weeks.
Starting next week, EastEnders viewers will have to tune in to BBC Two to catch up with their favourite soap.

Meanwhile on BBC One, France will face Australia on Tuesday before Belgium takes on Canada the following day.
Thursday will see Brazil take on Serbia.
The BBC previously chose to add the London-based drama on iPlayer at its usual time, preventing fans from missing out on the ups and downs in Albert Square.
