    Emmerdale confirms schedule change for New Year – here’s when it’s on

    Christmas may be over, but with New Year there comes a whole new schedule shakeup. Here’s when you can catch Emmerdale this week.

    As is usually the case, Emmerdale will be on every day this week, but not always at its usual time. With the search for April continuing and Jacob’s special A&E episode set to air, fans won’t want to miss any of the action.

    So here’s what time Emmerdale will be hitting your TV screens this week.

    New Year schedule for Emmerdale

    The schedule for Emmerdale this week will see the soap air in its regular 7.30pm slot for half hour on Monday, December 30. On New Year’s Eve it will start slightly later, at 7.45pm, finishing at 8.15pm.

    On New Year’s Day, just like Christmas Day, Emmerdale will air at the earlier time of 6.30pm for half hour. There will then be an hour long episode of the soap on Thursday, January 2. This will air between 7pm and 8pm.

    On Friday, January 3, Emmerdale returns to the 7.30pm slot, where it will air for half hour.

    What is happening in Emmerdale this week?

    In Emmerdale this week, the search for April continues and the police search her home looking for clues as to her whereabouts. One thing they find is contraceptive pills, which neither Marlon nor Rhona knew she was taking.

    As April’s disappearance takes its toll, Marlon and Rhona are soon at each other’s throats.

    Elsewhere, Emmerdale will air a special standalone episode for Jacob Gallagher‘s first day in A&E. However, things don’t quite go to plan and Jacob soon feels under pressure.

    When a stab victim is admitted to the hospital, Jacob recognises the purse as belonging to April and he decides to call Marlon. His boss is furious with his conduct, but this doesn’t prevent Marlon and Rhona from turning up at the hospital and begging for news. Has April been found?

    Also this week, we will see five flash forwards which hint at what’s to come in 2025…

    Emmerdale hit with fresh schedule change tonight – here’s when you can catch it

    Emmerdale will air at a slightly earlier time tonight as the ITV soap is hit with a new schedule change (surprise, surprise).

    Schedule changes are becoming quite a regular occurrence if recent weeks are anything to go by. Tonight (Thursday, October 31) sees the soap air at a different time to usual.

    Here’s when the soap will air tonight so you don’t miss out on all of the spooky goings on in the Dales this Halloween!

    Emmerdale schedule change: Soap to air at 7pm

    Emmerdale usually airs at 7.30pm-8.30pm on Thursday, but tonight, the soap will air from 7pm-8pm.

    In what feels like quite the Halloween trick, the usual soap schedule will be temporarily altered to make room for… wait for it… no, not the football this time! It’s the Martin Lewis Money Show Budget Special!

    The King of Finance will be airing a special ep from 8pm-9pm, meaning that Emmerdale needs to air at a slightly earlier time. Where Martin Lewis is concerned, we’ll forgive him for this one.

    For those fans who want to watch today’s Emmerdale even earlier, the episode is now available on ITVX.

    What to expect from tonight’s Emmerdale

    This evening’s Emmerdale is set to get rather spooky as Chas invites Liam and Ella to Halloween at the pub.

    Chas and Liam end up sharing a kiss though as Liam realises that he must break up with Ella…

    Elsewhere, Tom’s starting to sweat as Nicola and Jimmy clash over their differing views regarding their nephew.

    The couple’s relationship is put under strain as Nicola continues to share her concerns over Tom’s behaviour after his recent treatment of Carl.

    Perhaps it won’t be quite a Happy Halloween for everyone in the village this year…
