Emmerdale will not be on ITV on Monday 25 March to make way for the channel's live coverage of Montenegro V England at the Podgorica City Stadium from 7pm as part of the Euro 2020 qualifiers, with kick-off at 7.45pm.

Elsewhere, Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) gets a shock when dad Rishi Sharma (Bhasker Patel) admits he tied the knot with girlfriend Manpreet Jutla (Rebecca Sarker) on holiday in Las Vegas – and the new Mrs Sharma is visited by a face from the past who makes an unexpected visit…
