Emmerdale hit by schedule shake-up tonight amid major sporting tournament

by

ITV’s schedule has a slight change tonight, Tuesday, December 23rd, because of the ongoing Carabao Cup games.

Due to the football cup final, Emmerdale will air at 7pm tonight instead of its regular time of 7:30pm.

Okay, so instead of my usual dose of rural drama with Emmerdale tonight, it’s football time! Arsenal and Crystal Palace are facing off in the Carabao Cup quarter finals. Guess I’ll be cheering on a different kind of drama!

The event will be covered from 7:30 PM to 10:25 PM. The winner will advance to the semi-finals and play against Chelsea.

Over at the Dales, the drama is hotting up ahead of what’s sure to be an explosive Christmas.

After a turbulent year, Robert (Ryan Hawley) and Aaron (Danny Miller) were looking forward to a quiet Christmas, but their hopes are dashed by a series of threatening actions.

Everyone suspected Robert’s former prison boyfriend, Ross, was causing trouble, but it seems he’s not involved after all. So, who is responsible for these odd events?
