Coronation Street has been cancelled on Friday October 11, AND Monday October 14 to make way for Euro 2020 England matches.
England will be playing Czech Republic on the Friday and on the Monday they are up against Bulgaria in the competition's qualifying matches.
So between Wednesday, October 9 and Wednesday, 16, there will be no Coronation Street at all.
While Emmerdale is cancelled on both those days, there is the regularly scheduled hour-long episode on the Thursday beforehand, as well as a special hour long one on the Tuesday to make up for the missed episode.
However, ITV currently has no plans to make up for the lost Corrie episodes, so die-hard fans will just have to wait a week.

There’s still plenty of drama coming up on the cobbles though - so try to not be too disappointed.
Yesterday’s double bill saw Sinead Tinker (Katie McGlynn) get the devastating news that her cancer has stopped responding to treatment.
Along with husband, Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard), she was told that her life expectancy is now just a matter of weeks, leaving the young couple completely crushed.
It was also the day of Ken Barlow’s 80th birthday and so Sinead put on a brave face, assuring Daniel that they should still go.
Her husband then told her that he’d planned a surprise first birthday party for their son, Bertie, aware that Sinead won’t be there for the official day in January.
LATEST IN CORRIE
In the yard of the Rovers, Sinead told her friends and family her horrible news, leaving them all shocked and saddened.
Yesterday also saw Sophie Webster leave the cobbles as she headed off travelling with the money left from aunt Vi.
When we pick up with the Weatherfield residents again next Wednesday (October 16), there’s a shock for Shona Ramsey when Marion – evil Callum Logan’s mum – turns up on the cobbles with plans to apply for custody of Max.
Elsewhere, Sarah Platt gets a fright when baby Harry is knocked unconscious and Sinead’s health deteriorates even more, leaving her wheelchair-bound and weak.
