The Chase and Emmerdale fans 'love' ITV's latest changes to show timings

Fans of ITV have praised the broadcaster for a change and begged for more of the same.

Tonight, on Bank Holiday Monday, ITV decided to have a bit of a schedule shake up. It moved The Chase from its usual time at 5pm to a 6.30pm start instead, with Emmerdale starting at 7.30pm.

But rather than being frustrated at the changes, fans actually quite enjoyed it and asked for more of the same.

Taking to Twitter, one user said: "I like this show timing better @ITV #Emmerdale." Matthew said: "Actually think prefer #TheChase at 6.30 lead into at 7.30 #emmerdale Hint hint @ITV maybe try #itvnews 5.30 weeknights."

A third added: "Time for #Emmerdale... straight after #TheChase."

The changes are a one-off for today only. As from tomorrow ITV will return to normal programming before switching it up once more on Friday, January 6.

Emmerdale will be shown at 7pm. This is to make way for the FA Cup Live match between Manchester United and Everton FC.
