'''[[University Challenge]]''' has its two annual finals: the quiz finishes on Monday (BBC2, 8pm), and is preceded by the Boat Race (BBC1 and Eurosport, from 3.15 Saturday), back on terrestrial television for the first time since 2004. BBC marks the Easter break with '''[[Total Wipeout|All New Total Wipeout]]''' (BBC1, 5.20 Saturday; also CBBC 10am Sat and Sun, BBC3 7.10 Monday), featuring all-new water, all-new obstacles, and an all-new hosting duo. What? It's still Hammond and Byram? Not exactly All New, is it? See also: '''''West End Story''''' (BBC1, 4.10 Easter Monday), following the winners of three recent BBC / Lloyd Webber singing contests. ITV finishes off '''[[The Door]]''' (8.25 Saturday), and launches into a new run of '''[[Divided]]''' (5pm from Tues, not STV). '''[[Masterchef]]''''s finals week is condensed into three days (BBC1, Mon - Wed), but there's always '''[[Great British Menu]]''' to tickle the taste buds (BBC2, 6pm Tuesday, then 6.30 weeknights).
+
Voting begins on Monday for the UKGameshows.com Third All-Time Poll, and the '''[[Bamzooki]]''' team (BBC2, 11am Saturday) are already staking out the BBC's virtual studio, ready to defend the honour of CGI. There's another chance to see '''[[Raven|Raven The Dragons' Eye]]''' (BBC2, 7.30am weekdays), and after the '''''Masterchef Australia''''' final (UKTV Watch, 7pm Sunday), there's '''[[School for Cooks]]''' (7pm weekdays). '''''Out of the Frying Pan''''' (BBC2, 9pm Monday) follows two contestants from [[The Restaurant]]. Up-to-the-minute comedy on '''[[You Have Been Watching]]''' (C4, 10pm Thursday), with archive material on '''[[The News Quiz]]''' (Radio 4, 6.30 Friday) and '''''Fort Boyard''''' (TV5, 5.30 Friday). '''[[Young Musician of the Year|BBC Young Musician of the Year]]''' 2008 is repeated on late-night BBC4, ahead of the 2010 competition (7.30 Friday). And did we mention the grand final of '''[[Only Connect (2)|Only Connect]]''' (BBC4, 8.30 Monday)? No? Grand final of ''Only Connect'' this week, too.

Revision as of 17:30, 8 April 2010

Contents

A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 10 April 2010

Schedules are subject to change.

Voting begins on Monday for the UKGameshows.com Third All-Time Poll, and the Bamzooki team (BBC2, 11am Saturday) are already staking out the BBC's virtual studio, ready to defend the honour of CGI. There's another chance to see Raven The Dragons' Eye (BBC2, 7.30am weekdays), and after the Masterchef Australia final (UKTV Watch, 7pm Sunday), there's School for Cooks (7pm weekdays). Out of the Frying Pan (BBC2, 9pm Monday) follows two contestants from The Restaurant. Up-to-the-minute comedy on You Have Been Watching (C4, 10pm Thursday), with archive material on The News Quiz (Radio 4, 6.30 Friday) and Fort Boyard (TV5, 5.30 Friday). BBC Young Musician of the Year 2008 is repeated on late-night BBC4, ahead of the 2010 competition (7.30 Friday). And did we mention the grand final of Only Connect (BBC4, 8.30 Monday)? No? Grand final of Only Connect this week, too.
