Why has the schedule changed?

On Thursday, Live International Football will start at 7.15pm, after Emmerdale.

The new schedule ensures all episodes air this week and there will still be an episode every weeknight.

The Live International Football will see England v San Marino with a 7.45pm kickoff.

What will happen in this week’s episodes?

There’s still plenty of drama to come in this week’s episodes.

This week, Vinny returns from hospital. When Liv arrives at the Dingles’, Vinny is wary to be left alone with her.

Before a suspicious Liv can probe any further, Paul returns and tells Vinny to get Liv off their backs, or else.

Fearing for Liv’s safety, Vinny breaks up with her leaving her heartbroken. But her distress soon turns into determination to find Connor and find out what he knows.

Meanwhile Aaron reluctantly accepts Mack’s help to find Connor.

The next day, it soon becomes clear that Mack has dragged Aaron into one of his dodgy deals when he convinces him that they should ‘borrow’ one of Jimmy’s vans and meet a client in a layby.

Aaron is reluctant to help Mack load up the dodgy TVs but eventually agrees. When the police arrive on the scene, Mack scarpers leaving Aaron to face the music.

Emmerdale usually airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
