The Chase moves to new time slot in TV listings shakeup

The Chase will change its air times later this week, in a schedule shakeup that will also see Tipping Point moved.

A number of special events and programmes will be broadcast on the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 over the upcoming bank holiday weekend as Queen Elizabeth II celebrates her historic milestone of 70 years on the throne.

A four-day weekend has been formed thanks to the late spring bank holiday being moved to Thursday, June 2, while a new Jubilee bank holiday will take place on Friday, June 3. The long weekend will be host to a selection of celebrations across the UK in recognition of the Queen's 70th anniversary as the head of the British monarchy.

Bank holidays usually see channels show more films and programmes that are more family-orientated. This means some existing programmes will be moved or cancelled.

The Chase will return to its usual airtime of 5pm on ITV and the ITV Hub from Monday (June 6).
