There’s a separate Christmas special which Joel referenced, which will air on Christmas Day. The promo and announcement referred to the new series, which hasn’t got a confirmed airdate yet.

Corrie and Emmerdale both half an hour each, which is a surprise. The rest of the night a good alternative to the drama heavy BBC1.

Kind of surprised they haven't used Masked Singer & 1% Club on the Saturday 23rd instead?
But that is a nice line up from ITV1.

Probably the most varied ITV1 Christmas Day for a long time especially with the shorter soap episodes. Hope it works out for them.

Yeah, Christmas is a Monday, so you'd expect Corrie at least to be it's usual hour long. Is the missing half hour on Boxing Day maybe?

Corrie is also having an episode on New Year's Eve (Sunday). But it's a long time since they last only had 30 mins on Christmas Day.

Really surprising both soaps are half an hour - must be 20 odd years since that happened.
I did think 1% Club would be good crashed out on the sofa Christmas night TV, though 9pm perhaps a bit early. A nice line up - and to be fair it is ITV rather than the BBC who now offer something different on the big day each year.

Wow - a decent ITV Christmas Day schedule. I don’t think anyone had that on the cards.
