A guide to game shows broadcast in the UK and Ireland for the week beginning 10 July 2010
Schedules are subject to change.
What have we got for you this week? 101 Ways to Leave a Gameshow (sic) (BBC1, 6.30 Saturday) is the corporation's new Saturday evening entertainment. The end of the football means that interesting shows can go out on weeknights again - Shooting Stars (BBC2, 9.30 Tuesday) and Dragons' Den (BBC2, 9pm Wednesday) return for new runs, as does CBBC's science show Blast Lab (5.15 Wednesday). Channel 4 has an extended interview with Wilnelia Merced, the wife of Bruce Forsyth (Living with Brucie, 9pm Wednesday).
