Tonight's episode of EastEnders has been cancelled with the BBC airing the England Women's World Cup football match instead.

It comes after fans of the long running soap were devastated after the show was cancelled last week to make space for the France v South Korea game.

However, the BBC made up for fan disappointment by treating loyal fans to a double-episode treat on Thursday night.

However, not to worry if soap viewers missed the announcement as the last episode of the week is already on BBC iPlayer.
