In a change to the previously advertised schedule on RTÉ One the Eastenders The Flashback episode will now be shown at 9.25pm tonight followed by Prime Time’s live studio interview with An Taoiseach Enda Kenny T.D. at 10.00pm.
An hour long Eastenders episode will also been shown at 7.30pm as scheduled.
The Flashback episode was initially scheduled for tomorrow night at 7.30pm. Due to the confidential nature of the ‘Who Killed Lucy?’ EastEnders storylines the BBC was not in a position to give international broadcast partners detailed programme information ahead of each episode. Once we were made aware by the BBC of the significance of this episode RTÉ made a decision to simulcast the episode with the BBC rather than disappoint Eastenders fans.
