Coronation Street is back on tonight (Thursday, July 16), in music to fans’ ears.
Footie, rugby and other special shows can cause ITV to tamper with the usual soap schedule to accommodate them. And, these schedule changes have been happening a lot recently! But we’ve got you covered with all the up-to-date schedule changes right here!
What time is Coronation Street on tonight?
Coronation Street will air tonight, Thursday, July 16, at the usual time of 7.30pm-8pm.
ITV has been airing coverage of the World Cup throughout the month. This has meant that the Corrie schedule has had to become more flexible recently. But, the soap will air at its usual time tonight.
Today’s episode of Corrie is also available on ITVX and YouTube from 7am in the morning for those who wish for more flexibility.
What happens in Coronation Street tonight?
Tonight, Lisa refuses to let Dylan off the hook after Betsy’s collapse and shocks Sean by publicly blaming him before heading to the police station to report a crime.
Meanwhile, Kit urges Sarah to get hold of Gary’s phone to erase anything that could incriminate her. Tracy’s romance with Ross hits a bump after Cassie’s revelation, while Mary takes revenge on Christina with a flash sale.
Elsewhere, Chesney considers a loan to cover Joseph’s school fees, leaving Bernie deeply concerned.
Soap power hour in 2026
In October 2024, Corrie started streaming daily episodes of the soap from 7am.
This change was actually welcomed by many fans. Stats for the first quarter of 2025 confirm that ITVX achieved a ‘record-breaking’ billion streams in a quarter for the ‘first time ever.’ Coronation Street and Emmerdale have raked up 124 million streams on ITVX so far this year. Soap viewing is up 35 percent in comparison to the first quarter of 2024.
And then from January 2026, more changes came in. After the huge Corriedale episode, instead of airing just three days a week, Corrie now airs every weekday but for only half an hour.
Emmerdale begins the ‘soap power hour’ at 8pm and is followed by Corrie at 8.30pm. Both episodes are usually on Monday-Friday and new episodes also drop on ITVX every morning at 7am as usual.
