WHEN IS EASTENDERS ON BBC? FANS OF THE SHOW CALLED THE DECISION TO MOVE IT 'ANNOYING' SAM COOK Multimedia Lifestyle Journalist 09:42, 16 Jan 2024 Soap opera fans will be left
scratching their heads on Tuesday, January 16 as BBC's EastEnders is missing from the TV listings. The programme usually airs on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm, but has been replaced this
week. Viewers shouldn’t be too worried though as EastEnders is occasionally affected by schedule shakeups - and there’s a simple explanation for it not being on. This week, the FA Cup has
forced EastEnders out of its usual Tuesday slot. BBC One will be showing the Bristol City vs West Ham United match (third-round replay) instead, due to kick off at 7.45pm live from Ashton
Gate. The next episodes of Silent Witness and Waterloo Road have also been affected by the schedule shake-up and will now air next week on Monday and Tuesday night. READ MORE: Love Island

confirmed the news on X and said episodes will air on BBC iPlayer on Monday and Wednesday to Friday. Replying to the post on social media, one person said: “Yep. Here we go again. FA Cup

Typical!” “Of course BBC don’t want to use BBC Sport to put the annoying football on,” another person said. A third commented: “Stop moving the schedule, people are just going to forget
about Friday otherwise. Just gets annoying.” But when is EastEnders on later this week? Here’s everything you need to know. Article continues below WHEN IS EASTENDERS ON THIS WEEK? *
