A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 29 August 2009
Schedules are subject to change.
Highlight of the week is, of course, the Only Connect final (BBC4, Monday 8.30). The supporting acts include the Total Wipeout Championship of Champions (BBC1, Saturday 6.30). There's a return for Scrapheap Challenge (C4, Sunday 5.25), more Celebrity Millionaire (ITV, Tuesday 8pm), and Paris Hilton finds another Best Friend (ITV2, Thursday 8pm). We'll prefer Swots (Radio Scotland, Friday 6.10).
