What time is Coronation Street on tonight? And what happens in Tuesday's hour-long episode?

The battle for Eva's baby begins...

David Brown

Coronation Street fans left reeling from the news that their favourite soap had been shifted out of the schedules on Monday can cheer up: there's an hour-long episode showing at 8.00pm this evening. Instead of putting Corrie on against the England match on BBC1, ITV instead chose to move the Weatherfield drama on a day. Hence the Street being given an unusual Tuesday-night slot.

As for what happens, it's fair to say that Eva's baby bombshell will have far-reaching repercussions. Peter and Toyah have already split up in the wake of the shock news about Susie's parentage being revealed. Now the stage is set for a custody battle as Johnny Connor vows to fight for the future of the granddaughter he never knew he had.
