This evening's episode of Coronation Street has been pulled from the schedules out of respect for those who died during today's shooting tragedy in Cumbria.

More soon.

This evening's episode of Coronation Street has been pulled from the schedules out of respect for those who died during today's shooting tragedy in Cumbria.

All this week, Corrie has dominated the 9pm slot on ITV1 with its siege storyline, featuring Tony Gordon's escape from prison.

However, owing to today's tragedy, in which a gunman shot 12 people dead and injured 25, the commercial broadcaster has decided to shelve tonight's instalment.

More soon.


just a bit more,



would be insesitive to air it tonight.

I hope they put tommorows Emmerdale tonight, then put tonights Corrie in Emmerdale's slot

It'll get shown tommorow or Friday, it just means there'll be a double bill on one of those days. Fans won't have to worry about ITV not showing it at all.

I wish they'd have announced this a bit sooner

yeah that would be the most logical thing to do especially with BGT being on

Probably needed to get execs into a meeting, then inform ITV, then figure out what to do.....plus this story is still unfolding so dont go too bad on them.....

WTF, they've replaced it with TV Burp!? :s why? that means tommrows Emmerdale might be moved or we're gonna get the finale of Corrie on monday

Harry Hills best bits are on.

I would be annoyed if I was a Coronation Street viewer.
Maybe i'm insensitive but surely people can tell the difference between a soap storyline and reality, okay that storyline might be similar to the reality at the moment but that's just a very unfortunate coincidence. A warning before Coronation Street aired tonight that some people may find it upsetting would be better.
This very important week for ITV is turning into a bit of a disaster.

Oh now you can complain....surely theyll have to rearrange cause Seige week is there most expensive or something yeah?

Aye, I feel the same. Sorry, but a fictional storyline in a soap opera bares no relevance to real-life occurences, it's just coincidental.

What a ridiculous decision placing TV Burp in there too. Christ ITV are stupid.

Aye, its gonna be messed up, they'll probably bump Friday's Emmerdale

Now they're not even announcing when the next one will be shown! Thanks a lot ITV, we havent been looking forward to this weeks lot of episodes for months or anything

Yes Best Of Harry Hill is on.


Is the story line in this current bit
like todays news?

yeah or show it on saturday maybe, the siege week has to take priority

someone gets shot dead tonight IIRC

Fair enough.

Not really, its just because there is a gun involved, Tony's hardly driving around Weatherfield shooting people

Yeah but theyre playing the safe game, which they have to TV has become too PC in recent years with complaints about minor things....

I bet ITV get more complaints for not showing it that they would if they did. I can understand why ITV have done this but its still a bad decision. A warning before the episode would have been fine. I think they are insulting the viewers intelligence by pulling it.
There is talk that Corrie could go out on Saturday to wrap up the week.

True

I'm mostly pissed off about ITV not even telling us when the next one is on

It would make sense to have the finale on Saturday really.

It'd coincide with the BGT Final [though I haven't looked at schedules for that yet], and so it'd all fit together.

This was the first time id watched since xmas and now im annoyed, but becuase not a regular viewer it wont affect me, can see why you guys are though.
