Tonight only Emmerdale will broadcast with the soap airing again the following day alongside EastEnders.
And on Friday night there will be hour-long episodes of all three of the main soaps.
Coronation Street will also air a special episode on Sunday to catch-up ahead of the schedule shake-up.
From next week all three soaps will begin airing at new times.
Emmerdale will move to a nightly 7.30pm slot – with an hour-long episode on Thursdays.
Corrie meanwhile will air Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings for an hour at 8pm
