Revision as of 17:36, 29 May 2008

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the seven days beginning 31 May 2008

Schedules are subject to change.

Highlights this week:

I'd Do Anything (BBC1, Saturday 6pm and 8.45) Britain's Got Talent (ITV, Saturday 6.50 and 9.30)

Two talent shows reach their conclusions...

Big Brother Launch Show (Channel 4, 9pm Thursday)

...and one lack-of-talent show begins.

Bwlletin (Radio Cymru, 6pm Friday)

Which makes this our favourite new series of the week. Even though we can't understand a word of it.
