The first time they effectively go head to head, although next week BBC1 goes back to it's regular schedule and airs Gladiators against the Six Nations, which I'm not sure is wise.
ITV did originally plan to move their Saturday schedule half an hour later a few weeks ago (it was even announced on air that Limitless Win would move to 9pm) but abandoned that. I think they probably expected the BBC to play Gladiators at 6.30pm.
Are ITV airing the news between the rugby and Masked Singer next week or have they just having excessive build up. With Michael McIntyre starting at 6.50pm and the rugby likely to finish between 6.30-6.45pm it seems questionable to hold back The Masked Singer an extra 15 minutes.
