Are Emmerdale and Coronation Street set to air tonight?
Soap fans should prepare themselves for weeks of disruption due to sport.
The Instagram account for Emmerdale shared a post 13 hours ago which read: “Chas really is furious at what Charity has done.” Fans have reacted to the post and one wrote: “Emma Atkins smashing the hell outta this storyline 👏 My queen 😍 x,” whilst another said: “Ok this storyline is now like a comedy sketch its not only ridiculous but so far fetched its funny 😂😂😂😂.”
In February of this year the ITV soap Emmerdale dominated at the TV Choice Awards 2026 and took home the award for Best Soap. Best Soap Performance went to Danny Miller who plays Aaron Dingle in Emmerdale and Bradley Riches won Best Soap Newcomer for this portrayal of Lewis Barton.
Three days ago the Instagram for Coronation Street wrote: “There may be a little disruption to your soap schedule over the next few weeks ⚽, but don't worry, we'll keep you informed on when and where to find us. Here is this week's schedule! (Remember, you can watch each episode from 7am on ITVX & YouTube!).”
In response one fan wrote: “I was away all last week on holiday in Tenerife which means that I have missed all last week’s episodes. I am planning to binge watch all last week’s episodes with a cup of tea and some biscuits before I watch all this week’s episodes so I am up to date on what’s been happening ❤️.”
