Revision as of 17:33, 23 October 2008

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the seven days beginning 25 October 2008

Schedules are subject to change.

Highlights this week:

Celebrity Scissorhands (BBC3, 9pm Sunday)

Another series of the completely bizarre show where D-list celebrities (Steadman Pearson from Five Star?) are taught to cut hair. CAUTION: Contains George Lamb, so should not be watched by anyone under any circumstances, ever.

School for Cooks (ITV, 4pm weekdays)

A daily competition amongst amateur chefs.

Golden Balls (ITV, 5pm weekdays)

Jasper Carrot, a shiny set, and a show that's still as dull as ditchwater.

Argumental (UKTV Dave, 9.40 Monday)

A comedy panel game, in which Marcus Brigstocke and Rufus Hound lead their invited guests into passionate arguments. John Sergeant tries to keep order.

Dead Set (E4, 10pm weekdays)

In which the Big Brother competition is interrupted by an outbreak of the brain-dead. See, this is what happens when they employ George Lamb. Charlie Booker wrote this fictional fiction that's completely made up.
