When is Emmerdale on tonight?

Emmerdale usually airs for an hour on a Thursday from 7.30pm on ITV. However tonight, Thursday February 13, it will move to the earlier slot of 7pm.

The good news is, the soap will still be on for it’s hour-long episode tonight, so we’re not losing anything. And as usual, for anyone who wants to watch it even earlier (or later) the episode is already available on ITVX.

Usually this is because of football or rugby, but tonight the schedule looks different. In fact, Emmerdale is shifting for something else entirely. An hour-long episode of The Martin Lewis Money Show Live is on at 8pm, followed by Beat The Chasers at 9pm.
