| Updated:

Viewpoint on ITV has been enthralling viewers with its compelling crime story this week.

Following certain allegations about star Noel Clarke, the series finale not air on ITV tonight (Friday April 30)

So, to discover if schoolteacher Gemma Hillman is dead or alive, fans of the drama will have to pick it up on ITV Hub.

What’s on instead of Viewpoint on ITV tonight?

As Viewpoint has been dropped, ITV has had to add something into the schedule pretty damn quick, so let’s cut the network some slack.

Viewers are being served up a slice of It’ll Be Alright On The Night.

All’s not lost – Gogglebox is on over on Channel 4 and this rarely fails to deliver!

Mini-series Viewpoint has been stripped across the week up until now – and viewers love some ‘event’ TV.

But what’s on next week on ITV in its place?

However, as the story developed Gemma and Greg’s next-door neighbours, Carl and Kate Tuckman come under suspicion.

And now, as time is running out to find out what really happened to Gemma, Young must put all the pieces together.
