Those hoping to tune into ITV's The Chase and Tipping Point will have to wait a little longer than usual on Monday, May 8 as the game shows have been moved from their original slots. The broadcaster has revealed that both beloved afternoon programmes will air later on bank holiday Monday.
It comes after a weekend of schedule shake-ups to make way for the King's coronation ceremony, with other broadcasters either changing or axing programmes, including BBC's The One Show, in order to televise coverage.
Those wanting to get their daily fix of Tipping Point with presenter Ben Shephard can tune in at the slightly later time of 5pm as the host welcomes three new players to the game. Meanwhile, in what will no doubt feel unusual to regular watchers, The Chase won't air until 6:30pm, which is after the evening news.

Tipping Point and The Chase will then be followed by the soaps with Emmerdale kicking off at 7:30pm and Coronation Street at 8pm. I'm A Celebrity South Africa will continue at 9pm.
Meanwhile, over on BBC One, The One Show has again been cancelled to make way for Eurovision Welcomes the World at 6:30pm. EastEnders will air at 7:30pm and Masterchef continues at 8pm.
It comes after The One Show, which is fronted by Alex Jones, was axed on Friday, May 5 and replaced with HM The King's Coronation: The Eve of the Coronation, a documentary hosted by Kirsty Young about King Charles III. For the rest of the week The One Show at Eurovision will air at 7pm as the countdown to this year's Song Contest begins. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
