Emmerdale fans will be left scratching their heads this week.
The soap usually airs weeknights on ITV1 at 7.30pm until 8pm, with an hour-long episode usually airing until 8.30pm on Thursday evenings.
However, the channel’s schedule has been given a shake-up this week to make way for Women’s International Football.

England take on Brazil on Thursday (April 6) which means that Emmerdale will air at an earlier time of 7pm for just 30 minutes.
The hour-long episode will air instead on Good Friday (April 7) from 7pm until 8pm and will be followed by Coronation Street at 8pm until 9pm.
In upcoming scenes set to air this week, Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) is left gobsmacked as her ex Gus arrives in the village to share some news.
As Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) rushes to make his lunch date with his wife Rhona, they’re interrupted by the surprise arrival of Rhona’ ex-husband.
Rhona plans to have a proper catch-up with Gus but it soon becomes clear he’s bumped into Rhona for a specific reason.
Gus unburdens to an uncomfortable Rhona and she’s left stunned and confused when Gus reveals he wants to use one of their frozen embryos that Rhona thought had been destroyed.
Rhona’s in shock at Gus’ request to use the frozen embryos, and she’s horrified to learn what he’s been doing behind her back.
Learning that he’s been in touch with the clinic, and has been acting on her behalf, Rhona feels she’s been left with an impossible choice.

Elsewhere in the village, Rhona’s mum Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson) and Faye (Jane Gurentt) open up to each other and become more comfortable.
Mary impulsively moves in for a kiss to Faye’s delight.
However, both Mary and Faye worry about their upcoming date with each other.
Faye thinks Mary has stood her up when in fact she’d fallen asleep.
Soon as the date is in full swing, smitten Mary summons all her courage and invites Faye up to the bedroom.
Emmerdale continues tonight on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
