ITV makes Coronation Street and Emmerdale blunder - viewers have a lot to say

Soap fans know their stuff.

On Friday night, ITV made an Coronation Street and Emmerdale blunder - and telly fans were on it in a flash.

Corrie fans were beside themselves when the announcer accidentally said that there'd be an hour of Emmerdale instead - after half an hour in the 'Dales had already aired.

Now, it's an easy mistake and we'd be the first to admit that our minds have gone to mush by the time Friday night calls.

But viewers had A LOT to say about it.

"Scuse me voice over laydeh. Steve and Leanne don’t live in emmerdale #itv #corrie," one tweeted.

Another said: "She just said Emmerdale. Nearly wrecked my Friday night."

"Steve and Leanne have moved to Emmerdale (according to @itv). What must Nick and Tracy think?" joked a third.

A fourth added: "The continuity announcer had one job and one job only, and she got her soap operas mixed up."

"#ITV wo wo wo, voice over lady, since when did Leanne and Steve live in the dales #Emmerdale #Corrie @itv," another comment read.

Of course, it didn't matter in the end as Corrie did air as usual so there was no need for fans to panic.
