The right decision by ITV if only to show respect to the victims and their families.
I am wondering how long they will postpone it for. It could well be the rest of the week???

I always find these sort of situations odd....I have every sympathy but I'm quite sure the victims families wouldn't be sitting down watching TV anyway so are not going to be watching Corrie

Very unfortunate for Corrie that these episodes were scheduled for this time - Corrie isnt even normally on a Wednesday. Also they would probabaly get lots of complaints had they shown it.

I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled them for the week. All this weeks episodes are geared up around the factory siege.
I think ITV will be criticized what ever they do.

I read somewhere that ITV will be showing the remaining episodes on Saturday night. I`m with you Sooty...dammed if they do and dammed if they don`t. Personally I think it shows a great mark of respect. It`s unfortunate that the most talked about and anticipated week of Corrie should be about guns and murder. My heart and prayers really go out to the victims friends and family....especially since our very own member Val lives in that area.

I expect it wont return until Monday now. I guess they will just add a few eps into the schedules over the coming weeks until they are back in sync with when the eps are meant to air.

We've just got back from Butlins, and I haven't seen a tv, or a newspaper, or heard any news whatsoever since Monday. Someone had left a Metro on the train to Victoria and it was full of the horrible massacre story. I was shocked - I'd had no idea that this terrible thing had happened. How awful. I was looking forward to catching up with a load of telly this weekend, including the soaps. Corrie was on at funny times anyway this week to accommodate Britain's Got Talent - so gawd knows what, if anything, my Sky+ box has made of it all. Will need to check it out when I get a minute.

That's what I heard too, which I guess means we'll be exactly a week behind?
