EastEnders fans spotted a blunder on DI Jack Branning’s (Scott Maslen) work computer during tonight’s episode – and it’s all down to the schedule changes.

Tonight’s episode of EastEnders picked up after last night’s cliff hanger, in which Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) was arrested by Jack Branning over possession with intent to supply. Today, we saw Ravi being questioned in the police station as Priya’s house was searched by the police.

However, Ravi wasn’t giving in to the officers as he offered “no comment” to all of their questions. Ravi’s solicitor then asked for a further private consultation with his client, as the officer in the room was forced to leave the room and suspend the interview. As he left the room, he told his solicitor he needed him to get a message to someone for him – but it was the next part that left fans scratching their heads.

The officer questioning Ravi joined Jack outside who was re watching the interview on his computer. “I reckon he’s sweating,” Jack said about Ravi. The date and time were pinned at the top of Jack’s computer, with some eagle-eyed fans noticing the date said 23/7 instead of today’s date, 22/7.

“This is very particular but did anyone notice Jack’s computer date said 23/7?” asked one fan on Reddit. “Defo done before schedule changes came into play.”

The soap has undergone a number of schedule changes over the summer as huge sporting events including Wimbledon and the UEFA Women’s Euros broadcast on the BBC.

This week, the soap is undergoing another huge schedule shake-up, as the soap will be taken off air tomorrow night (July 23).

This is due to the Women’s Euros second semi-final airing on the BBC from 7.30pm tomorrow night, which will see Germany take on Spain for a place in the all important final.

To make up for the soap being off air on Wednesday, a double bill aired on Monday, meaning tonight’s episode was originally meant to air on Wednesday, hence the date ‘blunder’.

EastEnders isn’t the only soap undergoing schedule changes this week. Emmerdale has been taken off air tonight as the first Women’s Euros semi-final, which will see England take on Italy in an attempt to secure their spot in the final.

Fans can relax again from next week, as EastEnders will be airing in its usual 7.30pm slot from Monday to Thursday, and as always, will be available to stream on iPlayer from 6am that morning.
