Coronation Street Schedule Shake-Up: Friday's Episode Ditched

What's Happening?

Coronation Street fans are in for a surprise this week as Friday's episode has been unexpectedly ditched from the schedule. The long-running ITV soap usually airs on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but this week will see a change due to extended coverage of the Rugby Six Nations Championship.

Why the Change?

ITV has decided to axe an episode of Coronation Street in favor of airing the Rugby Six Nations Championship. This means only two editions of the beloved soap will be broadcast this week, leaving fans longing for their regular dose of Weatherfield drama.

Viewers' Reactions

Fans took to social media to express their disappointment at the schedule change, with one fan on Reddit posting, "Blah. Give me my Corrie!!" Others bemoaned the lack of communication from ITV about the alteration in programming.

What's Next?

According to ITV's schedule, there is no Coronation Street episode scheduled for Sunday. The next episode is set to air on Monday night at 8 pm, where viewers can catch up on the latest drama involving characters like Leanne, Daisy, and Lauren.

Coronation Street continues to captivate audiences on ITV1 and is also available for streaming on ITVX for those who can't get enough of the iconic soap opera.
