Coronation Street cancelled again

Coronation Street will not be airing tonight (Friday, October 6) due to the Rugby World Cup being shown from 7:30pm to 10:25pm. This takes the soap’s usual Friday slot of 8pm on ITV1.

ITV1 announced the schedule changes in an Instagram post earlier this week, revealing that the soap would instead be airing on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Emmerdale will still be shown, however, and is on from 7:00-7:30pm.

“Whyyyyy. I keep missing Corrie and watching half of the next episode without realising which ruins it for me because I expect it to be on during its time slots,” complained one irate fan.

“Put the rugby on a sports channel,” said another.

“Getting fed up with this rugby!” exclaimed a third fan.

“When is the rugby going to end?” asked another.
