TV Guide Last Week

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 27 March 2010

Schedules are subject to change.

The week's big promo is The Door (ITV, 9pm Friday), in which ITV celebrities are given painful things to do, with Chris Tarrant laughing at them. Daily Cooks Challenge appears on ITV (3pm weekdays), there's a new run of The Unbelievable Truth (Radio 4, 6.30 Monday), and another chance to miss Heads or Tails (C5, 7.30 Wednesday). Have I Got News for You returns in an unorthodox Thursday night slot (BBC1, 9pm Thursday) - but the Saturday repeat's still on Saturday. Radio 4 marks Easter with a Counterpoint special (12.04 Friday). Wales completes its digital switch-over at the end of March, so the analogue rebroadcasts of Channel 4 programmes on S4C come to an end. S4C becomes an entirely Welsh-language channel, and S4C Digidol becomes the only variant. Channel 4 will be available across Wales, channel 8 on DTTV sets.
