Schedules subject to change.
-
We have to pretend to be a grown-up listings magazine this week, and offer Schedule A and Schedule B for much of this week. Showing our Midlands sensibilities, we decree that Schedule A is for matches going out on ATV (or whatever the independent network is calling itself), and Schedule B is for matches going out on the BBC.  
+
The good news is that Schedules A and B are known for Saturday, and don't affect Tuesday and Wednesday either way. We should also note Schedule W, in case of British success at Wimbledon, but this simply exchanges BBC1 for BBC2 in the early evening, and doesn't affect any game shows.

Revision as of 17:18, 29 June 2006

Contents

A guide to game shows for the nine days commencing Saturday 1 July 2006

Schedules subject to change.

The good news is that Schedules A and B are known for Saturday, and don't affect Tuesday and Wednesday either way. We should also note Schedule W, in case of British success at Wimbledon, but this simply exchanges BBC1 for BBC2 in the early evening, and doesn't affect any game shows.
