Revision as of 17:31, 14 August 2008

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the seven days beginning 16 August 2008

Schedules are subject to change, and BBC daytimes still have major alterations from the Olympic coverage.

Highlights this week:

The X Factor (ITV, 7.30 Saturday)

Oh no not again.

Who Wants to be a Millionaire (ITV, 8.30 Saturday)

A Coronation Street special

Who Wants to be a Superhero? (Sci-Fi, midnight Monday morning)

The final episode is relegated from 8pm to midnight. Foolish.

Sport Mastermind (BBC2, 7pm Wednesday)

And if you don't want to watch Olympic Grandstand with Young Gabby, look away now.

0 Ond 1 (S4C, 8.25 Friday)

Sixteen people compete for £5000 and an unforgettable experience; one expat gets a trip home. Morgan Jones and Nia Parry host.
