Why is Coronation Street on tonight?
Coronation Street doesn’t usually air on a Thursday.
However, tonight, the soap will air from 9pm.
This is because the soap will not air on Friday.
On Friday, in Coronation Street’s place, a live football match of the FA Cup will air.
This will air from 7.30-10.15pm meaning that Coronation Street can’t air in its usual slot.
The match will see Manchester City v Arsenal go head-to-head in the fourth round of the Cup.
