Are Emmerdale in the middle of a big storyline though? It would work in theory but additional viewers will only watch and take an interest if something worthwhile is happening.

I don't think they can air an hour long Corrie at 10pm, as they would not have any advertising time left in their allowance. They may well not even have enough ads for a half hour Corrie at 10pm, especially on Saturday.
Eastenders has already bagged the Wednesday 19:30 slot next week and they have a big storyline next week too. Corrie could have a triple episode next Friday 7:30-9:00pm seeing as theres no EastEnders due to the football. ITV might just air a hour Sunday episode to catch up and then fit the final part of siege week somewhere monday |

Special permission can be granted though, as they got it for Eoghan on 2008's X Factor as whilst the results ran after 10pm he was still allowed on them, but he wasn't allowed on Xtra Factor afterwards.

BBC Press Office has now updated for Week 25. Obviously it's pretty much wall-to-wall World Cup and Wimbledon, but amidst that EastEnders has been shunted into 2 x 60 minute blocks (Monday 21st at 8-9pm & Wednesday 23rd at 7-8pm) while Holby City has been moved to Friday at 8pm.
EDIT: there's also a standard 30-minute EE at 7.30pm on Friday 25th, so effectively an extra episode (5 for the price of 4) that week. |

Harry Hill at 9pm again. They should have put Harry Hill at 7.30pm and ran BGT for two hours from 8pm, but the results should do better tonight anyway as they're only against a repeat of Would I Lie To You, which starts at the same time.

Problem with moving BGT around is that most people expect it to be on at the same time everyday, and only people on this forum will really be aware of changes, most ordinary people just check the TV guide to see when stuff is on, moving it around could potentially loose alot more viewers IMO.

What a mess. It won't be back until Monday now.
I still think they should have went ahead with a slightly edited, if needs be, episode tonight. But can see why they didn't. |

why is there 5 episodes of EE on week 25.
2 x 1 hour (4 episodes) & 1 x 30 minute (5 in total) I kinda like the novelty of having 2, 1 hour episode, see how it sits, but adding the 5th episode is strange. ITV pulling Corrie again? this has gone from bad to worse for them. |

If ITV keeps these episodes and doesn't 'start' again until Monday, they will have 3 episodes to catchup on. I forsee:
Monday 19:00 - Emmerdale 19:30 - Coronation Street (02/06 episode) 20:00 - Countrywise 20:30 - Coronation Street (03/06 episode) Tuesday Millionaire cancelled 19:00 - Emmerdale 20:00 - Harry Hill's TV Burp (R) 20:30 - Coronation Street (04/06 episode) Wednesday Florida: Paradise Lost moved to Friday, 21:00 where a Taggart repeat currently is 19:00 - Emmerdale 19:30 - Lion Country 20:00 - Coronation Street (07/06 - 2 episodes) They need a day break though between the Friday and Monday episodes, it'd look bizarre to have a burning factory before a break (Friday's episode) and then all clear for when it comes back from the break (Monday's episode). The above also would, coincidentally give Father and Son a Coronation Street lead-in for the four days that it is on. They can't really put the three siege episodes left after 9pm otherwise Father and Son would be on at 8pm, 8:30pm, 9pm, 9pm which is not feasible. What it would mean is that they'd be 8 episodes of Coronation Street next week, but that cannot be helped. |

![]() Its just ITV's luck that 'their' week is a complete disaster. To add to matters, the weather is now really hot. |

Mon 7pm-Corrie (2/06) 7.30pm-Corrie (3/06) 8pm-Countrywise 8.30pm-Corrie (4/06) Tues 7pm-Emmerdale (7/06) 7.30pm-Emmerdale (8/06 part one) 8pm-Corrie (7/06 double bill) Wed 7pm-Emmerdale (8/06 part two) 7.30pm-Emmerdale (9/06) I don't think the climax to the seige storyline should be dumped at 8.30pm on a Tuesday. I think airing it all on the Monday makes an event out of it, even though it's 90 minutes of Corrie in one night. The Monday eps of Corrie should go on Tuesday at 8 because they get the Emmerdale lead in and will provide a good lead in for F&S at 9pm. Emmerdale will clash with EE on Wed, but EE is out of its normal slot anyway and it should pose no threat to Emmerdale. Emmerdale is already 2 episodes short and needs to catch those up, as well as ones it will lose during the world cup. |

The right call by ITV. Their filler options, especially for a half-hour slot, are somewhat limited, but Harry Hill does the job well enough. The only other option is to move Emmerdale to 9pm, and perhaps extend the 6.30pm news to an hour.
The rescheduling though needs to cause as minimum disruption as possible - moving Emmerdale and other shows around the schedule to accommodate extra episodes isn't a good idea. I'd certainly put an hour next Wednesday at 8pm, and then I think find the third half-hour the following week. |

Couldn't they just shift the episodes along and air them in their normal places without moving or replacing other shows?

Kevin O'Sullivan (Mirror.co.uk TV Critic) says that ITV are moving the episodes to next week, with an official announcement tomorrow. I'm guessing they'll announce the schedule changes and stuff tomorrow as well.
