Emmerdale was pulled from its 8pm start for coverage of Westminster Hall.
For the last week, ITV has rescheduled or pulled its regular programming in favour of rolling coverage following the Queen's death. Multiple shows including The Chase and Coronation Street have had staggered starts ranging from a few hours to back-to-back episodes in order to compensate for the shift.
In their daily statements, ITV promised viewers Emmerdale would return at an 8pm time slot. Last night viewers got to enjoy a 90-minute marathon as the previously pulled episodes aired back to back.
