ITV cancelled last night’s Emmerdale minutes before it was supposed to air.
A double bill was due to air on Friday night from 8pm, as the channel tries to catch up on itself.
However before the first episode was set to be broadcast an announcement was made that the second had been cancelled.
Instead news coverage continued and the one episode aired at 8.30pm.
Viewers were left furious by the last-minute change.
One said: “I started my dinner to have it with #Emmerdale and it’s been pushed back again and only 1 episode, news has been on since 6pm!”
A second said: “#emmerdale I’m sick and [expletive] tired of this crap and there’s no [expletive] way I’m watching any channels on Monday.
“This is absolutely [expletive] [expletive].”
Emmerdale viewers furious at cancellation
A third said: “Bad enough we have to wait for #Emmerdale now delaying for more of the same.”
Another added: “They’ve only gone and dropped tonight’s double helping of #Emmerdale.”
The move means that ITV has had to schedule the episode over the weekend instead.
Now, as it stands, the edition will air on Sunday September 18 at 6.30pm.
It will replace a previously scheduled episode of Gino’s Italy: Like Mama Used to Make.
It has also been revealed that Coronation Street will air a special episode on Sunday night.
With the schedule changes the soap is behind an episode, and so will air Friday night’s two days later instead.
It comes as all of the soaps have been cancelled on Monday for on-going coverage of the Queen’s funeral.
As of now, Emmerdale is set to return on Tuesday (September 20) night at 7pm.
Coronation Street will then follow at 8pm as the channel attempts to catch up ahead of its big week of episodes.
