Antiques Roadshow fans have big complaint about latest episode after BBC One schedule shake-up
ANTIQUES Roadshow fans had a big complaint about the latest episode after a BBC One schedule shake-up.
The show usually airs at 8pm on Sunday evenings on BBC One.
However, the latest episode was pushed back an hour to 9pm after BBC One featured a number of films during the day.
Finding Dory had aired at 3.15pm before Maleficent: Mistress of Evil was shown at 6.10pm.
Countryfile then took the 8pm slot before Antiques Roadshow an hour later.
But fans of the show who hadn’t checked the schedules were not impressed to see the programme on at a later time.
Taking to Twitter, one wrote: “Why change the time of #Antiquesroadshow ? C/F same length why not have put A/R on at 8 ?”
Another added: “Since when has Antiques Roadshow been on at 9pm? How are old people staying awake this late?”
A third tweeted: “I can see why this episode of #AntiquesRoadshow is after the watershed, between the ventriloquist dummies and the creepy nodding cats I won’t sleep for a week.”
Meanwhile a fourth joked: “Why was #antiquesroadshow on after 9 tonight.
“Was it a post watershed version. “Roadshow Nights”. Or did someone do a big swear, like:
“’In this condition, you should be looking to insure a piece like this for somewhere in the region or 8-10 thousand pounds’. ‘**** me.'”
Antiques Roadshow airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
