The Chase to air only once throughout World Cup coverage

ITV's The Chase will only air once throughout the World Cup coverage.

Long-time fans of Bradley and The Chasers will have to do without their daily dose of daytime trivia as, for the foreseeable future, the Qatar World Cup will be dominating the airwaves.

The tournament kicked off on Sunday and has already replaced multiple television staples, including bumping Strictly Come Dancing to a Friday for the first time in the show's history.

The Chase is not the only casualty as the ITV News at 6pm will see a later starts or face being pulled entirely like Tipping Point and Ridiculous. I'm A Celebrity also made the call to launch in October instead of November in order to pull viewer focus.

Though The Chase will be missing from ITV's schedule for the foreseeable future, it will return tomorrow to give fans one final dose of entertainment. Bradley will welcome another four players ready to take on The Chaser but it is unclear when we will see him after that.
