Tipping Point and The Chase return amid scheduling chaos – but there’s a catch

THE Chase and Tipping Point have both returned to the TV schedule – but there’s a catch.

The beloved ITV quiz shows have either been axed or moved around the schedule recently.

It’s due to the broadcaster making room for their coverage of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Tipping Point usually airs weekday afternoons from 4pm.

It’s presented by Good Morning Britain‘s Ben Shephard and sees four players take on an ‘extraordinary’ machine to win a cash jackpot.

While The Chase – which is fronted by Bradley Walsh – follows directly after at 5pm.

It also sees four contestants take part, as they answer general knowledge questions while trying to beat a professional quizzer known as a ‘Chaser’.

Fans have recently been left furious over their temporary new timeslots – and ITV have revealed they’ve been changed once again.

The broadcaster’s schedule for Monday, December 5 shows Tipping Point will begin at the much earlier time of 3:15pm.

Fans of The Chase don’t need to panic as the show will be on air an hour later at 4:15pm.

Over on the BBC Strictly Come Dancing has also been affected by World Cup coverage.

Last weekend’s instalment saw the show broadcast hours earlier – and on a different day.

The quarter final aired on Friday evening at 5.40pm as the remaining celebrities once again took to the dance floor.

And fans didn’t have long to wait as the results show aired on Saturday instead of its traditional Sunday night slot.
