Emmerdale fans have been left fuming after the ITV soap was cancelled in a last minute schedule shake-up.

The serial drama was due to be shown at 8.30pm on Friday (July 5) but was taken off air. However, soap fans will still be able to watch Coronation Street at 9pm.

ITV extended their Evening News programme following the general election and fuming fans have since taken to social media to issue complaints as the tuned into the latest drama at Number 10 rather than Emmerdale village.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: “Sick of football messing up the soaps. #Emmerdale taken off last min and it’s not even on ITVX.” Another added: “They have just pulled #Emmerdale ffs.” A third person said: “Why has the schedule just suddenly changed? Now doesn’t show #Emmerdale at half 8?”

Fans had been expecting to see the fall-out from Nicky and Suni's departure

It comes after Suni Sharma (Brahmdeo Shannon Raman) and boyfriend Nicky Miligan (Lewis Cope) made a swift exit from the village during Thursday’s (July 5) hour-long episode.

Nicky had been wanting to move away for weeks after learning that mum Ruby Fox-Miligan (Beth Cordingly) was behind the hit and run on the late Ethan Anderson (Emile John).

But Suni wasn’t keen, as he wanted to stay close to half-brother Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson), who was also harbouring a huge secret. Both storylines collided on Thursday, as Jai’s wife Laurel Sharma (Charlotte Bellamy) recovered in hospital after her shocking heart attack.

The pair both had enough of their families
With the character said to be responding well to treatment, we soon saw Laurel telling Suni the truth – that Jai had conned him out of his inheritance after learning that their father Amit (Anil Goutam) was a murderer.

Suni was outraged, telling Jai that he would never forgive him and adding that Laurel deserved better. Suni immediately packed up his things, telling Nicky that he now hoped to get away with him after all. Nicky was blindsided, having tentatively began to make up with Ruby.

Meanwhile, grieving Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin) woke up after spending the night on Caleb Miligan’s (William Ash) sofa, and found some paperwork that incriminated Caleb in the hit and run. Charles drove Caleb out of the village and confronted him, prompting Caleb to cover for wife Ruby by admitting that he was behind the wheel.

Charles wanted revenge, or at the very least some justice for Ethan. But Caleb reminded the vicar that Ethan had died of natural causes, so there was no sense in placing blame for his untimely demise.

Ultimately, Caleb’s insistence at keeping the real truth hidden eventually led Nicky to agree to Suni’s plan, and the couple planned to make a fresh start together, with Nicky making peace with Charles before he left.

Just as Laurel ended her marriage and ordered Jai out of her life, Ruby shared an emotional farewell with Nicky and Suni, while Caleb could only stand back and watch as their son and his partner drove out of their lives.
