That slot will be quite disrupted in May by BGT anyway which will need 2 or 3 Sunday episodes this year as it started later and there’s a Women’s England match during the live week so they’ll probably need a Sunday semi final.
Personally think it would be more useful on Sundays and they could probably pad out a week with something off ITVX or some factual content. That said the civilian version often is stripped so they know it works at 9pm.
Talking of Jeopardy the Aussie version has now launched and it's getting pretty much the sane reaction as the UK one did. The fact Chanbel 9 have scheduled it on Saturday nights, considered a graveyard slot in Australia, says it all really.

That’s except for viewers in Wales, which considering Deal’s success, is rather baffling (as much as more peak-time local output is a welcome thing)

Viewers expecting to see Stephen "same time, same place tomorrow" may be slightly confused when they tune into the news instead!
Be interesting to see if they edit out the competition references from Episode 3 but they probably won't, cheekily itv.com/deal now redirects to itv.com/win!

Did they really not edit out the reference to “tomorrow”?

You would think now shows are almost all destined for repeats or streaming they would make an alternative edit of the ending as a matter of course, although most shows get around it by referring to "next time" rather than anything more specific.

Back in the day it was customary to say something like "Join us for the Krypton Factor grand final next Monday at 7", as anything that disposed of it in that slot would have been known about well in advance like covering some football or something - or it was something unforeseen in the news that happened that warranted kicking it out, though that itself was very rare IIRC.
These days though? I think it said in one of the producer handbooks floating around that the networks discourage the whole "next Monday at 7" thing as there's no guarantee it'll go out in that slot. So "Next time" seems to be the next best thing, now we have the likes of iPlayer where you can burn through a whole series in one go.

Of course the one show that has retained the time advertisement is Britain’s Got Talent, which still has the ‘Britain’s Got Talent returns next Saturday at 7.30pm’ text over the preview of future episodes, although it seems to be super rare for pre recorded shows other than that.

If I remember correctly Ant & Dec on Limitless Win made reference to 'next Saturday' rather than 'next time' and made reference to being back in a week or two with Saturday Night Takeaway at the end of the series.

Which you’d expect from a show that is a load of random links and contestant runs stitched together.

Ant and Dec formats don't tend to get repeated. I'm not sure any of their previous gameshows have aired at all since their original run.
