EASTENDERS and Hollyoaks fans hoping to get their soap fix may be disappointed tonight as they’re both cancelled.
But fans shouldn’t be too annoyed as the BBC will be streaming The Big Night In from 7pm.
Meanwhile, Hollyoaks fans can enjoy a Hollyoaks Favourites episode over on E4.
The soap originally planned to air Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights but later reduced their schedules to just Monday and Tuesday nights at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
They are currently spreading out each completed episodes to stay on air until the summer, but unless production resumes by June, it is unlikely they will remain on air.
Soap fans have been left devastated in recent weeks after their favourite shows have been forced to cancel.
One wrote on Twitter: “Really really missing #EastEnders on Thursdays and Fridays ! Feel bereft ! Literally nothing to watch …sigh @bbceastenders.”
A second said: “Pls can we move one of the soaps JUST ONE to a Thursday so that all days are catered for #EastEnders #Corrie #Hollyoaks #emmerdale.”
Production on EastEnders and Hollyoaks came to a halt last month amid the coronavirus pandemic.
