ITV1 tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the ITV1 primetime line-up for tonight, Saturday 24 October 2026.

The Chase Celebrity Special — ITV1, 6:30pm

Bradley Walsh hosts a fancy-dress edition (series 13, episode 12) with Lucy Porter, Colin Murray, Tommy Blaize and Asim Chaudhry among the celebrities taking part. It follows the ITV Evening News at 6pm and the London bulletin at 6:15pm.

Win Win with Postcode Lottery — ITV1, 7:30pm

Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins front this interactive quiz (series 2, episode 5), where viewers at home can win the prizes the studio contestants play for. Billed as new, but it is a routine weekly edition.

The Voice UK — ITV1, 8:35pm

The night’s big show, and a returning series (series 14, episode 9). The listing describes it as the semi-final, with Emma Willis presenting and each coach allowed to put through only one act from their team. It runs for two hours. Our Voice UK guide has the contest so far.

Romesh Ranganathan’s Parents’ Evening — ITV1, 10:45pm

A comedy game show (series 1, episode 2) in which Mel B, Jonathan Ross and Richard Madeley each compete alongside their daughter. ITV News is at 10:35pm.

English Football League Highlights — ITV1, 11:45pm

A late round-up of the day’s English Football League matches, including Lincoln City v Burnley and West Ham v Southampton.

Popular shows on ITV1

Soaps

Coronation Street is the world’s longest-running soap opera, first broadcast in December 1960 and set in fictional Weatherfield in Greater Manchester. Sixty-five years on it’s still one of ITV’s most-watched programmes. The 2026 move to nightly half-hour episodes cut the wandering subplots and the show is better for it. Emmerdale, set in a Yorkshire Dales village, has run since 1972 and leans on long slow-burn storylines, with the odd plane crash or storm when the ratings need a jolt.

Quizzes and game shows

The Chase is the strongest quiz ITV1 has. Bradley Walsh hosts it, and the six Chasers each have their own following: Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha, Mark Labbett, Shaun Wallace, Jenny Ryan and Darragh Ennis. Mine’s Hegerty, for the record. The format has also spawned foreign versions and a celebrity edition.

Tipping Point, ITV1’s other daily quiz, is the simpler of the pair: get a question right, drop a counter into the machine, hope it shoves some money off the shelf. Ben Shephard fronts it.

Entertainment

Britain’s Got Talent returns each spring for its auditions, with Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli on the panel. The live shows pull some of the biggest weekend audiences on linear TV.

I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! has aired every autumn since 2002. The premise is thin: recognisable faces stuck in a remote camp with nothing to do but bicker and eat insects. It still pulls millions, which says something, though I’m not sure what.

How to watch ITV1 live and on demand

Channel numbers

ITV1 is free-to-air on all of these. The regional version you get is set by the postcode on your account or box setup.

ITVX

ITV1 streams live and free on ITVX at itv.com/watch, and through the ITVX app on smart TVs, iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, the Sky boxes, Virgin Media TV360 and most streaming sticks. You need a free ITVX account, just an email and password, no card details.

Most programmes stay on demand for 30 days after broadcast. Emmerdale and Coronation Street go up at 7am on broadcast day, hours before they air on TV.

To watch the live stream you need a TV Licence, the same as watching any live channel online in the UK. On-demand catch-up doesn’t. ITVX is funded by advertising like the channel itself; an optional ITVX Premium subscription strips the ads from on-demand viewing.

ITV1 regions, STV and UTV

ITV1 isn’t one channel but a network of regional licence holders sharing the national schedule and producing their own local news. The bulletins around the ITV Evening News come from whichever licence holder covers your area: ITV London, Granada, ITV Central, Meridian, Yorkshire, Anglia, Border, Tyne Tees, Wales and West Country.

Scotland is the exception. In the centre and north, STV (Scottish Television) holds the channel-3 licence as an independent broadcaster. It runs most of the ITV1 schedule, including Coronation Street, Emmerdale, The Chase and Britain’s Got Talent. But it makes its own news and some of its own drama and factual output, and runs a separate streaming service, STV Player. STV isn’t owned by ITV.

In Northern Ireland the channel-3 licence belongs to UTV (Ulster Television), which carries the network schedule alongside its own local news. UTV is owned by ITV plc. Both STV and UTV sit on channel 3 on Freeview in their regions.

Frequently asked questions

What time are Emmerdale and Coronation Street on ITV1?

Both soaps keep to their weeknight run, Emmerdale at 8pm and Coronation Street straight after at 8:30pm, Monday to Friday, landing on ITVX from 7am the same morning. Neither is on tonight, Saturday 24 October.

What’s on ITV1 tonight?

Saturday 24 October 2026 has The Chase Celebrity Special at 6:30pm, Win Win with Postcode Lottery at 7:30pm and The Voice UK at 8:35pm. ITV News is at 10:35pm, Romesh Ranganathan’s Parents’ Evening at 10:45pm and English Football League Highlights at 11:45pm. Full listings are in the schedule table above.

Is ITV1 the same as STV in Scotland?

No. Across most of Scotland the channel-3 slot is STV, and in Northern Ireland it is UTV.

Verdict

Tonight is The Voice UK from 8:35pm, with quiz shows before it and a comedy game show and football highlights after the late news. For the weekly pattern, see when the soaps and big shows are on. Daytime is Good Morning Britain, This Morning, Loose Women, Dickinson’s Real Deal and The Chase.
