Coronation Street, EastEnders and Emmerdale clash tonight in huge shake-up

All the soaps are on tonight - what to watch and when

Coronation Street is airing a double episode tonight and Emmerdale is on for an hour, causing a huge clash of the soap titans as they go up against EastEnders.

The extra half hour of Emmerdale will mean fans will have to choose between watching that and EastEnders.

And Corrie will go head-to-head with Holby City when it airs its episodes starting from 8pm.

Here’s what to watch and when it watch it on Tuesday, November 9, 2021.

Emmerdale airs in its usual 7pm slot, however it is on for an hour instead of its usual half hour.

That means it’ll clash with EastEnders, which airs as normal at 7.30pm.

Holby City begins at 7.50pm on BBC, so that will overlap with Emmerdale by 10 minutes. It will then go up against Coronation Street, who are airing an hour-long episode on ITV at 8pm.

Why have the soaps changed their schedule this week?

On Friday, November 12 at 7pm ITV are airing an England international football match. The team will go up against Albania in a World Cup Qualifier.

That means both Emmerdale and Coronation Street won’t be airing on Friday.

However, EastEnders is unchanged and will go out at 8.05pm as usual.
