The ongoing Paris 2024 Olympic Games have caused significant schedule disruptions for popular UK soaps, EastEnders, Coronation Street, and Emmerdale. EastEnders will air on BBC Two instead of its usual BBC One slot, while episodes will also be available early on BBC iPlayer. Similarly, ITV will upload episodes of Coronation Street and Emmerdale to ITVX at 7am on the day they are broadcast, but they will still air as scheduled in the evenings. Fans have praised the early uploads and called for this to become a permanent feature. Meanwhile, EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy is taking a short break to host a new Channel 4 series. The disruptions are expected to continue for at least the next two weeks due to the Olympics.
