The new season of game shows doesn't properly start until next weekend, but some shows are getting in early. New episodes of Pointless (BBC1, 5.15 weekdays), a new run of Celebrity Masterchef (BBC2, 6.30 weekdays), and a new challenge of The Great British Bake Off (BBC2, 8pm Tuesday). There's also the final of Civilian Big Brother (C5, 9pm Monday) and the launch of Celebrity Big Brother (C5, 9pm Wednesday), and Peter Andre's Bad Boyfriend Club (ITV2, 9pm Wednesday), but we include those purely for completeness.
