TV Guide This Week

Revision as of 20:36, 1 March 2007

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the seven days beginning 3 March 2007

Schedules are subject to change.

New and notable

Comic Relief Does Star Academy (BBC1, 5.55 Saturday)

Continues on Wednesday, then daily.

The Con Test (ITV, 8.55 Saturday; also TV3 at 8pm.)

The million pound final, and viewers in Ireland see the "live" programme an hour before the rest of the UK.

Comic Relief Does Car Booty (BBC1, 6.45 Sunday)

Celebrities sell the last part of their career in a car boot sale.

Going for Gold (Challenge, 9am weekdays)
Cash Cab (Challenge, 10am weekdays)
Headjam (G2, 5.40 weekdays)
Eggheads (BBC2, 6pm weekdays)

Four superior daytime quizzes. Television planners, you spoil us with your riches.

Stars in Their Eyes (Challenge, 7pm weekdays)
So You Think You Can Dance (Challenge, 8pm weekdays)

It's just a shame they're stuck away in daytime.

Fort Boyard (TV5, 5.35 Wednesday)

We don't know if this is a repeat of the 2003/4 episodes from last summer, or some new shows, but it's Fort Boyard. Of course it's good!

Beat the Boss (BBC1, 5pm Friday)

Designing a suit for Lenny Henry.
