Broadcasts
In the United Kingdom, as of January 2008, Coronation Street is broadcast at 19:30 and 20:30 on Mondays and Fridays, and at 19:30 Wednesdays on terrestrial / digital network ITV. There have been a few late night Coronation Street episodes starting at 10pm, because of the watershed. Repeat episodes and specials can be seen on ITV and ITV2, with an omnibus edition shown on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. ITV has offered this sort of catchup since the channel began broadcasting Coronation Street in December 1998. Since January 2008, the omnibus has moved back to the main ITV channel where it currently broadcasts every Sunday morning.
In Ireland, Coronation Street is simulcast on TV3.
In Canada, Coronation Street is broadcast nightly on CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) at 19:00 local time Monday-Friday, with an omnibus on Sundays usually starting at 07:30. During NHL Playoffs, it is broadcast at 15:30 each weekday afternoon. The Sunday omnibus is broadcast except during the Olympics. Canada is currently 9 months behind Britain. In the US, it airs in border markets where CBC can be reached.
In New Zealand, Coronation Street is broadcast nearly every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday on TV One, (TVNZ), at 19:30. New Zealand is currently 14 months behind Britain.
In Australia the show is broadcast on Cable networks Foxtel and Austar 6 days a week and is currently 15 months behind Britain.
