The TV Gameshow Thread

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.
