Highlight of the week is, of course, the '''[[Only Connect]]''' final (BBC4, Monday 8.30). The supporting acts include the '''[[Total Wipeout|Total Wipeout Championship of Champions]]''' (BBC1, Saturday 6.30). There's a return for '''[[Scrapheap Challenge]]''' (C4, Sunday 5.25), more '''[[Who Wants to be a Millionaire?|Celebrity Millionaire]]''' (ITV, Tuesday 8pm), and Paris Hilton finds another '''Best Friend''' (ITV2, Thursday 8pm). We'll prefer '''[[Swots]]''' (Radio Scotland, Friday 6.10).
+
If it's the start of September, it's the return of '''[[Fighting Talk]]''' (Radio 5, 11am Saturday). '''[[Britain's Best Dish]]''' (ITV, 5pm weekdays) is back, and '''[[Clever Versus Stupid]]''' (BBC3, 8.30 Monday) is the replacement for ''The OC''. 9pm Monday is the home of food ('''[[The Restaurant]]''' on BBC2, '''[[Hell's Kitchen]]''' on ITV2), but Channel 4 replies at 10pm Tuesday ('''[[The Big Food Fight]]'''). '''[[Mastermind|Mastermind Plant Cymru]]''' begins its new series (S4C, 8.25 Thursday). Bet they're not lining up in the titles.

Revision as of 17:27, 3 September 2009

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 5 September 2009

Schedules are subject to change.

If it's the start of September, it's the return of Fighting Talk (Radio 5, 11am Saturday). Britain's Best Dish (ITV, 5pm weekdays) is back, and Clever Versus Stupid (BBC3, 8.30 Monday) is the replacement for The OC. 9pm Monday is the home of food (The Restaurant on BBC2, Hell's Kitchen on ITV2), but Channel 4 replies at 10pm Tuesday (The Big Food Fight). Mastermind Plant Cymru begins its new series (S4C, 8.25 Thursday). Bet they're not lining up in the titles.
