The Chase and Tipping Point in ANOTHER schedule shake-up as ITV game shows pushed out of regular slots
FANS of The Chase and Tipping Point will have to wait for their favourite programmes as ITV confirms they are losing their regular time slots.
After a weekend of Coronation fun and festivities, Bank Holiday Monday’s TV schedule will see the two game shows move to later on in the evening.
ITV has revealed that both of the beloved afternoon shows will be aired at different times to the their usual slots on Monday 8 May.
Tipping Point will begin at the later time of 5pm as Ben Shephard introduces three brand new players.
Meanwhile, viewers will have to wait much longer for their daily fix of The Chase.
The show, which is presented by Bradley Walsh, won’t start until 6:30pm, after the evening news.
ITV1 are airing the movie Goosebumps, starring Jack Black, earlier in the day, which is to blame for the shake-up.
Earlier this week, Chaser Shaun Wallace showed one player exactly why he’s called the Dark Destroyer by barking at them to “jog on!”.
The show, hosted by Bradley Walsh, 62, was left in chaos when one contestant decided to brand the Chaser as the “worst”.
Shaun Wallace, 62, is one of The Chase’s most infamous task masters, with very few having beaten him in a war of intellect.
However, that wasn’t enough to put off one of the new contenders, Romzan, who was joined by Mapaseka, Sophie and Martin to work together to win as much money as possible.
As he was introduced to the audience, cocky Romzan told host Bradley that he wanted to face Shaun because he thought he was the “worst Chaser”.
After a strong start answering five questions correctly in the cashbuilder, Romzan soon got his wish to meet the Dark Destroyer.
Teasing his prey, Shaun told him before they began the round: “It’s your worst nightmare to play the worst player.”
And it didn’t take long for the contestant’s confidence to be crushed.
