Revision as of 17:19, 18 September 2008

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the seven days beginning 20 September 2008

Schedules are subject to change.

Highlights this week:

Hole in the Wall (BBC1, 5.40 Saturday)

Minor celebs try to fit through a titular hole in a titular wall. Hosted by Dale Winton.

Top Brain (Radio 4, 1.30 Monday)

The single best competitor in Brain of Britain between 1999 and 2007.

Strictly Come Dancing - It Takes Two (BBC2, 6.30 weeknights)

Claudia Winkleman and chums.

Gaisce Gnó (BBC2 Northern Ireland, 7.30 Monday)

Sounds like an Irish-language version of Beat the Boss.

One Versus One Hundred (Challemge, 9pm weeknights)

Now, is this Dermot O'Leary, or someone completely different?

Keith Lemon's Celebrity Juice (ITV2, 10pm Wednesday)

Leigh Francis hosts a comedy game about celebrities. Team captains are Fearne Cotton and Holly Willoughby, and guests are set to include Dermot O'Leary. Or someone completely different.

The Underdog Show (Living, 8pm Thursday)

Another run for the show so bad that BBC2 didn't want it any more. TPT and MDS host.
