Here's when you can watch Emmerdale this week

In yet another a huge schedule shake-up this week, Emmerdale won’t be airing tonight (Tuesday, June 25). But, when can you catch the ITV soap this week?

This week sees the continuation of The UEFA European Football Championship 2024, which will air on ITV1 from 6.45pm – 10.45pm. This means Emmerdale won’t air in its usual 7.30pm slot.

But, when will Emmerdale be on this week?

Emmerdale is not on tonight, so when’s it back?

Emmerdale won’t be airing at all on Tuesday, June 25 or Wednesday, June 26. However, soap fans needn’t worry, as Emmerdale will return to screens later in the week.

The soap’s usual hour-long episode will air on Thursday, June 27 and it will then air again in its usual Friday evening slot at 7.30pm on June 28.

Tuesday and Wednesday will be soap-less days for ITV fans, as Coronation Street won’t be airing either due to the football.
