Soap fans, prepare for disappointment tonight (Monday November 21) as Coronation Street and Emmerdale have both been postponed so that ITV can screen tonight’s World Cup match between the USA and Wales.
The match kicks off at 7pm, which means that the usual visits to the Dales and to Weatherfield have been pushed back.
For Emmerdale fans, the next episode airs tomorrow, November 22 at 7pm, and it’s an hour long.
There promises to be high drama as Chloe (Jessie Elland) gets closer to discovering the truth about who Al (Michael Wildman) was having an affair with before he died – but she’s on a bit of a wrong track when she accuses Priya (Fiona Wade) of being the mystery woman with a child who Al bought a house for.
Meanwhile, Samson (Sam Hall) continues to be a total sulky brat about his new baby daughter, much to Sam (James Hooton) and Lydia (Karen Blick)’s dismay.
They do their best to make up for their son’s lack of enthusiasm about being a dad by trying to be involved in Esther’s life. And David (Matthew Wolfenden) is feeling guilty about his recent devious behaviour after he got a speeding fine.
There’ll also be Emmerdale episodes on Wednesday 23 at 7pm and Thursday 24 at 7pm, with both of these being an hour long. No soaps will air on ITV on Friday.
Corrie viewers have slightly longer to wait for their next visit to the cobbles, as the next episode airs on Wednesday 23 at 8pm.
It’s a huge episode for Sam (Jude Riordan) as he finally gets his wish and visits the prison to come face to face with his mother’s killer, Harvey Gaskell (Will Mellor).
Will Sam get the answers that he’s looking for?
Elsewhere, Hope (Isabella Flanagan) also has a killer on her mind. In her case it’s her late father John Stape, and Hope is making the most of having a notorious dead parent by selling copies of the book about him at a considerable profit.
And Mary (Patti Clare)’s over-the-top performance in the play leads Nigel (Richard Elis) to draft in an acting coach – who turns out to be a very familiar face from Ken (William Roache)’s past.
Corrie then continues on Thursday at 8pm, with no episode on Friday.
All is not lost though for those who are happy to binge-watch online. All episodes of both are up on ITV Hub for the week, and will drop each Monday while the World Cup continues.
