From tonight (Monday May 29) Emmerdale will air one episode each weeknight at 7pm.

That will be followed by one 30 minute episode of Corrie at 7.30pm.

Both soaps will be followed by two-hour-long live broadcasts of Britain’s Got Talent’s semi-finals.

EastEnders is not affected by the schedule changes but will go head to head with Coronation Street rather than Emmerdale.

Coronation Street will tackle two huge storylines this week.

Daisy Midgeley will face her stalker Justin in court for the trauma he has put her through.

Ryan Connor will make his way to court to face down the man who permanently disfigured him in the acid attack.

However, in more a upbeat storyline, quad mum Gemma Winter will finally walk down the aisle to kebab-making Chesney Brown.

The pair’s hodge-podged wedding is bound to be a memorable one with Gemma throwing anything and everything together on a shoe-string budget.

Her wedding dress is set to be one remembered by Corrie viewers for years to come.

However with Gemma’s brother Paul hiding the fact he has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease and likely only has a few years to live - will the big secret be exposed?

Meanwhile, on Emmerdale, Mackenzie Boyd promises to commit to his newborn son Reuben after he is given the all clear.

Caught up in a tender moment, the mother of his child Chloe Harris goes in for a kiss.

Despite Mack's rejection, she begins to fall for him again all over again.

Will Chloe get her dream family life she always wanted? Or does Mack only have eyes for Charity?
