Emmerdale fans thrilled as ITV takes soap back ‘to the good old days’ this week

EMMERDALE viewers were thrilled as the ITV soap returned to its original time slot - but only for a week.

The soaps schedule has been thrown into chaos as the Britain’s Got Talent’s live shows start tonight.

Emmerdale and Coronation Street will be booted out of their usual slots to make way for the nightly live episodes of the talent competition.

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.

However, fans took to social media to share that they prefer the 7pm time slot.

One said: "Yes! Back to Proper #Emmerdale Time 7pm."

Another wrote: "#Emmerdale at 7pm and #Corrie at 7.30 tonight and all this week on ITV1. (just like the good old days)"

A third penned: "The Good News: #Emmerdale is on at 7pm all week."

This week 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?
