There is an Hour Doctors on Thursday 5th June 1:45pm-2:45pm

Emmerdale on Friday 13th seems to be airing from 19:10 now so 5 minutes earlier than planned.

For Friday 13th, ITV could have had the following:
7:10 ITV NEws
7:30 Emmerdale
8:30 Coronation Street

And BBC could have EE on Wednesday or Thurday at a later time to avoid loss of viewers with a 7pm start.

Soaps are going to be down in ratings for sure these next few weeks

I said that over in the TV forums. It makes sense to me however it seems that the BBC (and ITV) are trying to avoid clashing against Football as much as possible.
There is no Wednesday Football so i'd have gone like this

Monday
Soaps as normal

Tuesday
Emmerdale 7:00pm-8:00pm
EastEnders 8:00pm-8:30pm

Wednesday
Emmerdale 7:00pm-7:30pm
Corrie 7:30pm 8:30pm
EastEnders-8:30pm- 9:00pm
Holby City 9:00pm- 10:00pm

Thursday

EastEnders 7:00pm-8:00pm

Friday

EastEnders 7:00pm-7:30pm
Emmerdale 7:30pm-8:30pm
Corrie 8:30pm-9:30pm

Extra episode of EastEnders could be one less to fit in in the coming weeks.
Emmerdale will avoid EastEnders on Friday instead of starting 10 minutes later.
No clash on Tuesday and EastEnders and Holby Helping Wednesday out.

Good idea and suggestion.

If anybody can do this, with any changes as they may be announced - this would be much appreciated by many, who do like to have these updates and channel information to be made available to them as advanced as is possible, generally.

Thanks for this thread, Dan. It's really helpful for me.

I wonder how many people will moan about the programme being shown at an earlier time, e.g. Eastenders is on at 7pm on Friday 13th June.

This week, Coronation Street has been on at 9pm and got more viewers (whether to do with the story or BGT I don't know)

An earlier time may mean less viewers.

As my nan said to me yesterday, she had to watch Coronation Street on ITV2 yesterday lunchtime (Tuesday's episode) as she didn't know it was on, plus she was watching Happy Valley on BBC1. She has no recording devices (including ITV on demand etc).

I've gave her a list of the confirmed times for Corrie over the next fortnight so she doesn't miss the out of normal schedule episodes.

Although she isn't bothered about the football/BGT as she watches both, but by missing an episode or two of a drama may lose your focus on the story.

7pm-7.30pm Eastenders

Not sure from where. ITV press office and DS have confirmed them.

There is a football match on ITV at 5:00pm so the news needs to fit in somewhere and then there will be a Football Match at 11:00pm so they will need to allow some more news and highlights/build up.

Series Link on SKY+HD Box, and on Freeview HD PVR's works a treat ...

I normally watch Corrie off PVR, so Series Link is a fantastic innovation.

Even if you watch live, if SL is set up, a daily reminder of transmission times for any programme.

Not everyone has Sky+ or Virgin +

Problem is even with having + service if the soap is in a different slot it still might end up clashing with other recordings.

You could always record the omnibus on a weekend, and watch it in one fell swoop

As you all have internet obviously, there is iPlayer or ITV player, most people have access to some kinda listings, so I don't no why the need of a thread.

The amount of times, threads have to be made for changes to the epsiode times, maybe there should be a constant sticky thread, and the times posted on it.

Stupid World Cup

Why can't they have it once every 10 years instead of 4

Outrageous
