Why is Emmerdale not on TV today? ITV schedule change explained and when it is back

ITV replaced Emmerdale with live coverage of England's World Cup qualifier against Latvia, continuing a recent pattern of schedule changes affecting the soap's regular broadcast times.

  • On October 14, Emmerdale was pulled from ITV's schedule as live coverage of England's World Cup qualifier against Latvia aired from 7pm, leaving fans fuming.
  • ITV reshuffled its schedule for live football, pulling Emmerdale last week to show an England vs Wales friendly and forcing the soap off air again.
  • Emmerdale will be back on Wednesday, October 15, airing 7:30-8pm Wednesday, 7:30-8:30pm Thursday, and 7:30-8pm Friday on ITV1 and STV, with early release from 7am on ITVX, STV Player and YouTube.
  • Fans must wait an extra 24 hours for the next Emmerdale episode and took to X to say they felt `punished` or that the show was being `shelved` for football.
  • Emmerdale normally airs weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX, and despite tonight's cancellation, spoilers for next week teased Cain's arrest fallout and Kev's link to Robert.
