TV Guide This Week

==A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 14 August 2010==
+
New shows this week include '''[[The X Factor]]''' (ITV, 7.30 Saturday), the first of a million heats. Last year's "stars" John and Edward Grimes get their own flea-on-the-wall show (ITV2, 8pm Tuesday; also TV3). Not that the target audience will be watching that rubbish, not when they could be watching Josie's inevitable victory on '''[[Big Brother]]''' (C4, 8pm Tuesday) and progression into '''''Ultimate Big Brother''''' (C4, immediately after) alongside some former stars of the show. Which brings us to a discussion of how much food goes to waste in the social action programme '''[[Great British Menu|Great British Waste Menu]]''' (BBC1, 8.30 Wednesday).
-
 
+
-
Two new shows for Saturday mornings: [[Escape from Scorpion Island]] (BBC2, 8am) and [[Fighting Talk]] (Radio 5, 11am). Cookery fans are also well-catered for: [[Masterchef Goes Large|Celebrity Masterchef]] comes to an end (BBC1, from Wed) and [[The Great British Bake Off]] (BBC2, 8pm Tuesday) has Mel and Sue seeking a great baker. What's wrong with Richard? Two long shows begin: [[The X Factor]] reviews its last search for the Christmas number 2 (ITV2, all week), and [[Mastermind]] starts looking for its next champ (BBC2, 8pm Friday).

Revision as of 17:24, 19 August 2010

New shows this week include The X Factor (ITV, 7.30 Saturday), the first of a million heats. Last year's "stars" John and Edward Grimes get their own flea-on-the-wall show (ITV2, 8pm Tuesday; also TV3). Not that the target audience will be watching that rubbish, not when they could be watching Josie's inevitable victory on Big Brother (C4, 8pm Tuesday) and progression into Ultimate Big Brother (C4, immediately after) alongside some former stars of the show. Which brings us to a discussion of how much food goes to waste in the social action programme Great British Waste Menu (BBC1, 8.30 Wednesday).
