Christmas is getting closer ? and now's your chance to plan your soap viewing in advance. ITV has released its full festive schedules today, so we've unpacked all of the details you need on Coronation Street and Emmerdale timings.
Both ITV soaps are airing huge storylines over the Yuletide season. Returning character Eva Price has been tipped as one to watch on Corrie, as the Driscoll family's first Christmas together on the cobbles turns into a dramatic affair, while Becky Swain's scheming escalates and there's even a video cameo from Gail Platt.
Meanwhile, Kim Tate, April Windsor and villainous Ray Walters are among those in the spotlight on Emmerdale. Both soaps are also building up to the epic Corriedale crossover episode, which airs in January, so you won't want to miss a moment...
ITV's festive schedules have confirmed that Emmerdale and Coronation Street both get hour-long Christmas Day episodes this year, airing at 6.15pm and 7.15pm respectively.
This is good news for Emmerdale fans, as the show had been cut back to 30 minutes on Christmas Day in 2023 and 2024. Corrie also aired a shorter 30-minute Christmas episode in 2023, but was back to an hour last year for Gail's exit.
Additionally, both soaps are airing on Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, putting them right at the heart of the festive schedules.
The full rundown for the festive fortnight follows below:
Monday 22 December
7.30pm: Emmerdale (30 mins)
8.00pm: Coronation Street (60 mins)
Tuesday 23 December
7.00pm: Emmerdale (30 mins) ? earlier slot due to ITV football coverage
