Was Coronation Street on Last Night
Oh, so the big news is Coronation Street got cancelled last night. Cancelled because of the National Television Awards (NTAs), which is honestly the kind of thing you’d think only happens once in a blue moon, but no, apparently it’s a “thing.” Can't say I was expecting that when I stared at the telly guide, cup of tea in hand, totally ready for all the drama on the cobbles.
You know that feeling when you come home, sink into the sofa, and realize the usual comfort food—street bickering, oddly dramatic pub conversations, maybe a bit of Sally giving someone stick—is just straight-up missing? It’s weirdly disorienting. Proper unsettling.
When is Coronation Street on this Week?
After the break, Corrie returns with a new swathe of drama. The episode on Friday 12th September kicks off the next string, and if spoilers are anything to go by: Becky Swain comes face to face with Carla, fan theories swirl about possible shock deaths, and the Abi pregnancy saga continues to unravel. Monday 15th and Wednesday 17th promise to push things further, so if you’ve been speculating (or emotionally invested to an unhealthy degree), your patience will be rewarded soon.
- Friday 12 September: 8 PM, new episode
Don’t be surprised if ITV tacks on a recap or preview—sometimes those help catch up if you’ve missed a night or two to chaos or distractions. (Once missed the Friday episode after a dog-related incident; caught up over cereal. Gripping stuff.)
How Do Fans Cope When Corrie Isn’t On?
If you’re having Corrie withdrawal—don’t worry, you’re in the majority. Ever had that moment where the street’s off air and suddenly, mundane Thursday feels eerily quiet? Some turn to omnibus repeats, available on ITV2 or catch-up platforms (yes, classic episodes do still air for nostalgia buffs). Others speculate wildly online about what’s coming next or resurrect their favourite plotlines in epic, borderline-incoherent chat threads. Chippy tea, sofa gathering, and a faint hope that Norris will be resurrected—these coping mechanisms are real.
Viewing Options
For those unable to watch the live broadcast, episodes of Coronation Street are available to stream on ITVX. New episodes are typically uploaded to the platform by 7:00 AM on the day of airing, allowing viewers to catch up at their convenience.
Note on Scheduling Changes
It's important to be aware that ITV occasionally adjusts the Coronation Street schedule to accommodate special events or programming. For instance, during the UEFA Women's European Championship in July 2025, several episodes were rescheduled due to live sports coverage. While no such changes have been announced for this week, viewers should stay informed by checking the ITV schedule regularly.
