TV Guide This Week

Contents

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

Schedules are subject to change.

The big one this week is Antan Dec's new show, Push the Button (ITV, 7.45 Saturday), and House Guest leaves these shores for somewhere warmer (ITV, 2pm weekdays). The annual festival of song Can i Gymru goes out on Sunday (S4C, 8pm), and Feirm Factor is a Welsh original remade in Irish (TG4, Thursday). We're looking forward to re-runs of Winning Lines (Challenge, 7pm weekdays) if only for the soundtrack.
