What time is Emmerdale on tonight? Soap on earlier as hour-long episode moves days

Emmerdale is on at an earlier time tonight as it airs a rare hour-long Monday special of the soap onto our screens. What a treat!

Usually airing for just half an hour on a Monday, tonight will be an exception as the soap gears up to find out what really happened to April.

Here’s when you can catch tonight’s episode of the village drama so you don’t miss out!

Emmerdale on at earlier time tonight in schedule change

We all know by now that Emmerdale usually airs at 7.30pm for half an hour on a Monday, with hour-long episodes only airing on Thursdays.

However, this week sees a rare schedule change where the soap will actually air on ITV for one whole hour tonight (February 3). Sounds like the perfect way to start off the working week!

This evening, Emmerdale will air from 7pm-8pm tonight in preparation for tomorrow night’s special April episode.

Viewers are now closer than ever before to finding out exactly what happened to April during the time she was missing…

What to expect from Emmerdale tonight

In tonight’s special instalment of Emmerdale, Caleb confronts Cain and asks him whether he slept with Ruby. Gasp.

Cain covers and tells him that Anthony must’ve made the whole thing up… But, will Caleb believe his brother’s lies?

Elsewhere, Marlon agrees to put his family at home first as both Ross and Paddy give him some words of wisdom. But, things soon chance when PC Swirling arrives at their house and tells them that April has been found. But, in which state have the police found her in?

And, Kim starts becoming suss of Joe and Dawn (nothing goes amiss where Kim is concerned), and starts questioning them.

Trying to keep their affair a secret, Joe then tells Kim about his painkiller withdrawal and she actually seems to buy it (surely not?)

There’s definitely a lot of drama to play out tonight – no wonder an hour episode is needed!
