Despite some concerns that it meant the soap was in trouble, coupled with lots of cast exits, it has been revealed that actually it was a great move by ITV. Stats for the first quarter of 2025 revealed that ITVX has 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. So it seems fans are really enjoying the 7am uploads. It’ll soon be all change once again for ITV and Emmerdale in 2026 however. The soap has announced a new schedule. The soap ‘power hour’ will start from next January. Emmerdale will continue to air five nights a week. New episodes will also drop on ITVX every morning at 7am as usual. However, there is a big change coming as the soap will move to a new time slot of 8pm. The Thursday double bill will also be cut to half an hour to make way for additional episodes of Coronation Street. This ensures faster-paced, digestible episodes – a 30-minute format which has already proven popular with viewers. Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
