Tipping Point, The Chase and In For a Penny taken off air in ITV shake up

ITV have had a scheduling shake up this weekend.

Saturday's normally air Tipping Point: Lucky stars at 4pm, The Chase Celebrity Special right after at 5pm, Stephen Mulhern's In For a Penny at 6.30pm and Romeo and Duet after that at 7pm. But this weekend, all of these shows will be taken off air.

This is so that ITV can make way for an all important football match. Mark Pougatch will be providing all of the coverage of the Emirates FA Cup Final live from Wembley. It will see a tense final as Chelsea go head to head with Liverpool FC.

Liverpool are aiming to become the first English club to win the quadruple. The last time these two sides met in the FA Cup final was in 2012.

The football coverage will last from 3.45pm up until 7.30pm. Mark Pougatch will be joined by usual suspects Ian Wright & Roy Keane whilst Joe Cole and Robbie Fowler will also cast their thoughts on the final. There will also be an appearance from Liverpudlian actor Stephen Graham and a feature looking back at 150 years of the famous competition.

Britain's Got Talent and The 1% Club will still air at their normal times. You can see the latest talent auditions at 8pm and join in with Lee Mack's quiz of logic from 9.20pm.

Tipping Point airs weekdays from 4pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
