Coronation Street and Emmerdale to move timeslots permanently in big ITV schedule shake-up

Coronation Street and Emmerdale will have a new permanent schedule from March as ITV announces that the evening news programme will be extended to an hour, with even more focus on reporting from outside of London feeding into the programme, to reflect the whole of the UK.

The action from the cobbles will be moving to hour-long episodes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm, and Emmerdale will have a consistent 7.30pm slot.

Coronation Street and Emmerdale continue to be the nation’s most popular continuing dramas, averaging consolidated audiences of more than five million viewers in 2021, including catch up viewing on ITV Hub.
