EastEnders fans were left furious on Monday (July 3) as the soap was moved to BBC2 in a last minute schedule change.
The popular soap, which usually airs on BBC1, was switched over to the sister channel make room for the Wimbledon tennis coverage – causing confusion and anger amongst fans.
Taking to Twitter to moan about the move, one person wrote: “When you find out # EastEnders hasn’t been cancelled and has just been moved to BBC2,” posting a gif of a man hyperventilating through a paper bag.

A third griped: “Tennis was on bbc2 but they move it to bbc1 and move Eastenders to bbc2. Are there people who cannot receive bbc2 #DefundTheBBC #EastEnders.”
