ITV have confirmed a return date for Emmerdale as the network had a schedule shake up following the news of the Queen’s death.
Her Majesty died peacefully on Thursday September 8 at the age of 96, after an incredible 70 year reign. TV schedules were altered significantly following her death, with soaps like Emmerdale being pulled off air.
The soap was pulled from Monday nights line up in favour of more news coverage as network gave updates on the Queen's final journey. However after a few days off air Emmerdale will return tonight with an hour long special.
