Or at least advise the production team to make the 'sequel hook' - to use a TV Trope - more generic. "Join us next time on The Weakest Link when we'll be trying to look behind us in a Panto Dames special ... (clips from the episode play) ... Goodbye". Something that specifically mentions there being a sequence in which the episodes air and in which order but having enough leeway to be flexible in reruns, to use the American vernacular.

It used to be standard for the continuity announcer to make that kind of announcement over the end credits.
Does programme paperwork include a warning to pres that a programme includes a promo for the next episode so that somebody can review and decide how to proceed?

Has anyone heard anything concrete about Deal Or No Deal?
A user posted here that it was set to air from Monday 2nd October based on a reference to this date on Wikipedia.
I see the same article has now been revised to suggest the series will begin a week earlier, from Monday 25th September.
Given Wikipedia isn't the most reliable of sources, does anyone here know anything?

At the recordings they said it was looking like September but they didn't have a definite date.

I'd be surprised if it ends up being the 25th. The Chase/Tipping Point only started new episodes last Monday and Tennable starts them this coming Monday - so seems a bit soon to stop any of them.

It's not automation that's the problem, automation had been around for decades. It's just less sh*ts being given, and less money/time for reversioning

You get very little old school continuity like this anymore
Emmerdale was half an hour earlier on Tuesday, was it mentioned over the credits of Monday’s episode, of course it wasn’t
And then on the BBC, when Wimbledon over runs and a programme gets dropped, does the announcer mop that up telling viewers when it will now be aired, no they don’t, they just proceed with the next programme

The recent trend of filming Australian shows here continue with Wheel of Fortune now auditioning for Aussie ex-pats.

Interesting that the same as Jeopardy, it’s not just the show being filed here - but Australia managing to retain the same host as the UK episodes?

Norton's probably well known there because of his chat show?
