EastEnders announces schedule changes as Friday episode cancelled

Many tuning into BBC One tonight will be wondering what time EastEnders is on after a major scheduling shake-up.

Earlier this week the broadcaster confirmed changes to the soap's schedule, including a double episode and a cancellation. The schedule shake-up is to make way for the UEFA Euros 2020, which kick off this week.

EastEnders shared the news on its social media platforms to make sure fans didn't miss an episode. It wrote: "Due to the UEFA Euros 2020 kicking off this week, there will be no episode of #EastEnders on Friday 11th June. Here are the fixtures for this week's episodes."

The schedule is as follows:

Monday, June 7 - 8:05pm

Tuesday, June 8 - 7:35pm and 7:55pm

Thursday, June 10 - 7:35pm

Friday, June 11 - Cancelled

And it's safe to say not everyone was happy about the change. "I hate sport," wrote one, while another simply added: "Unacceptable."

A third suggested: "You might as well of uploaded the episodes on BBC iPlayer!" While a fourth said: "I find it so annoying when sport messes around with ours soap schedule."
