Why isn't EastEnders on iPlayer today? BBC soap fans left hanging on huge cliffhanger

Soap fans will be left disappointed once again tonight - as EastEnders has been taken off air yet again.

The BBC soap has undergone a number of schedule changes over the last few weeks due to sporting events - and the same applies tonight. Last night, fans were left ecstatic when the Lionesses beat Italy in a nail biting semi-final, taking them all the way to the final.

Tonight,Germany and Spain will battle it out to see who will be joining them in the final on Sunday. Coverage starts on BBC One at 7.30pm and runs all the way up until the BBC News at Ten which will be starting at the slightly later time of 10.10pm.

But when will EastEnders fans get their next episode? Fear not, as fans will be getting their regular Thursday visit to Albert Square tomorrow. The soap will air in its usual BBC One slot at 7.30 - and on iPlayer from 6am for those who are too eager to wait.

Fans were left hanging on a huge cliffhanger on Tuesday night, as 16-year-old Avani Nandra-Hart told her grandmother Suki Panesar that she was pregnant. Avani also told her grandmother that Joel was the father, and she didn't want him to know.

"You think I'm keeping it? I'm not keeping it," she told her grandmother. "I am not pushing a pram around the Square like some loser. Do you know how much stick Lily got in school?" she asked.

However, Suki was adamant Avani sat down with her mum and dad to speak about the matter, informing her there were other options, such as adoption. However, Avani revealed she couldn't speak to them about it, adamant she wasn't having the baby.

Avani then demanded Suki couldn't ever tell anyone, as she stormed off, with a worried Suki looking into the distance before the doof doof. Avani's father Ravi had just been arrested for possession with intent to supply - and knowing his character, how will he react if and when he finds out?

Elsewhere, Linda Carter left the Queen Vic for the final timeas it's time for Kat Slater to take over as landlady. Linda took a break from the Square and headed off on a cruise, as she said an emotional goodbye to her mum Elaine, barmaid Tracey and the pub.

Fear not though, as Linda will be back after a break from the show, and fans are sure they'll be a surprise waiting for her in the shape of Max Branning (Jake Wood). It was announced a couple of weeks ago that Max would be making his return to the Square, and last night Linda told Max's son Oscar that Annie was his half sister, as her father was Max.

Oscar promised not to tell but as we know Max is on his way back to the soap - will he stick to his word?

EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
