Last-minute changes announced by Emmerdale star Mark Charnock, who plays Marlon Dingle in the long-running ITV show, have left fans "fuming". The actor took to social media to keep fans up-to-date, but news of a schedule change appears to have left them very disappointed.
Emmerdale has been off-air due to a scheduling re-shuffle caused by World Cup coverage. A similar rejig of programming times befell other must-see shows such as Strictly Come Dancing, as well as fellow soap, Coronation Street.
Both Emmerdale and Corrie are set to return tonight (December 7). An extended hour-long episode of Emmerdale will air at 7pm, followed by Corrie in its usual 8pm slot. The same arrangement will follow on Thursday and Friday, meaning fans of both soaps will be fully up to speed by Friday.
