Fans of the show usually expect it to air in its usual slot at 9pm on Mondays and Tuesdays. This week, however, the show has undergone a schedule shake-up ahead of its finale.
Instead of being split over two days, the penultimate episode and the finale will air back-to-back on Channel 4 tonight at 9pm and 10pm.
What to Read Next
With no Virgin Island set to air tomorrow, the slot has been filled by the anticipated Channel 4 drama Falling, which will air at 9pm.
Written by Adolescence's Jack Thorne, the upcoming series stars Keeley Hawes as a devout nun named Anna, who falls in love with a Catholic priest named David, played by Paapa Essiedu.
The official synopsis reads: "Jack Thorne’s first love story. When devout nun Anna and Catholic priest David fall for each other, they must wrestle with what it means for their relationship with God."

Joining Hawes and Essiedu on the cast are Jason Watkins, Niamh Cusack, Rakie Ayola, Adrian Scarborough and David Dawson.
Speaking about the show, Hawes said: "I’m thrilled to be taking on the role of Anna and so looking forward to working alongside the brilliant Paapa Essiedu to bring Jack Thorne’s beautiful scripts to life."
Essiedu added: "Falling is a story that has Jack Thorne’s singular talent of mining the sublime out of the ordinary running all the way through."
The Virgin Island finale airs tonight on Channel 4 tonight at 9pm and 10pm.
