ITV1 Schedule: Tuesday 11 August 2026 (Full Listings)

Here is the complete ITV1 schedule for Tuesday 11 August 2026, on Freeview 3.

What’s on ITV1 today — the daytime schedule

Teleshopping fills the small hours until 3am, then a repeat of The Staircase carries Michael Peterson’s trial to its verdict following an unexpected homecoming. The calming strand Unwind with ITV follows at 4:10am, before Dickinson’s Real Deal returns at 5:10am from Blackburn, where Matt Taylor comes across an unlikely duet, Alys Dobbie sizes up a vintage dress and Tim Hogarth comes away well ahead.

Good Morning Britain runs from 6am, then This Morning takes the late-morning slot from 10am through to the lunchtime and regional news. Dickinson’s Real Deal returns at 2pm, this time from Peterborough, where James Layte gets stung by a bargain and Tracey Thackery misses her chance. The afternoon quiz run kicks off with Deal or No Deal at 3pm, where Stephen Mulhern watches Angela take on the Banker. Tipping Point follows at 4pm with Ben Shephard, then The Chase closes out the afternoon at 5pm, with Taven, Sharron, Rumun and Sally teaming up against one of the Chasers ahead of the evening news.

ITV1 tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the ITV1 primetime line-up for tonight, Tuesday 11 August 2026.

ITV News London — ITV1, 6pm

The regional bulletin covers the day’s local stories and weather for London and the South East, ahead of the national news at 6:30pm.

ITV Evening News — ITV1, 6:30pm

ITV’s national bulletin runs through the day’s top stories with reports from its correspondents in the UK and abroad, setting up the evening’s factual and drama run.

Inside The Langham: Britain’s First Grand Hotel — ITV1, 7:30pm

A new episode of the fly-on-the-wall series returns to one of London’s grandest hotels. Michel Roux challenges The Langham’s kitchen to hit Michelin standards, while the hotel’s managing director flies out to inspect a smart new opening in the Italian city.

Emmerdale — ITV1, 8pm

Caleb’s patience is wearing thin, Billy and Dawn start plotting their exit from the village, and Jacob gets a shock he isn’t expecting.

Coronation Street — ITV1, 8:30pm

One episode tonight rather than the usual midweek pair. Richie’s murder charge casts a long shadow over Tim and Sally, Kit finds himself the object of Jodie’s affections, and Alya gives a prospective buyer a look round the restaurant while Idris watches on.

Cold Case Forensics: In the Blood — ITV1, 9pm

A new episode of the true-crime series follows forensic scientist Angela Gallop as she explains how bloodstain evidence helped crack two notorious cases, including the investigation into Damilola Taylor’s murder; he was only ten when he died in 2000.

ITV News at Ten — ITV1, 10pm

The day’s headlines with analysis from ITV’s correspondents, followed by a further regional update at 10:30pm.

ITV News London — ITV1, 10:30pm

A final look at the day’s local stories before the night’s film.

The Spy Who Loved Me — ITV1, 10:45pm

Roger Moore’s Bond investigates the disappearance of a British submarine carrying nuclear warheads, in this 1977 outing also starring Barbara Bach as a KGB agent chasing the same case.

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 Saturday-night 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. Weekend episodes happen occasionally.

What’s on ITV1 tonight?

Back to the usual weeknight line-up. Emmerdale is at 8pm and Coronation Street follows at 8:30pm, with a new episode of Inside The Langham opening the evening at 7:30pm and Cold Case Forensics: In the Blood bringing a new case at 9pm. After the ten o’clock news it’s the Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me at 10:45pm. 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

Tuesday 11 August keeps ITV1’s evening in familiar hands, with Emmerdale and Coronation Street running back to back as usual. Inside The Langham returns with a new episode at 7:30pm, taking viewers back inside one of London’s grand hotels as Michel Roux puts its kitchen through its paces.

After the news, Cold Case Forensics: In the Blood gives Angela Gallop one of her more sobering cases, tracing bloodstain evidence back to the killing of Damilola Taylor. The Spy Who Loved Me, Roger Moore’s fifth outing as Bond, carries the night through to its late finish.
