Why isn't Tipping Point or The Chase on ITV and when are they back on the schedule?

Popular TV game shows Tipping Point and The Chase will not be airing on ITV on Tuesday, June, 14. The shows, which normally air every weeknight, are missing from the TV schedule.

This is because ITV is airing ITV Racing Live: Royal Ascot from 1.30pm to 6pm instead. Normally Tipping Point airs at 4pm every weekday evening and The Chase at 5pm every weeknight.

There is more bad news for Tipping Point and The Chase fans as the shows will not be returning until Monday, June, 20. ITV will be showing the Royal Ascot coverage every day from Tuesday to Friday, June, 17.

ITV has enlisted a whole host of presenters to help them with their Royal Ascot coverage including analysis from Jason Weaver, reports by Rishi Persad, Oli Bell, Matt Chapman, Luke Harvey, and Sally Ann Grassick, betting news with Brian Gleeson, lifestyle with Mark Heyes and Charlotte Hawkins, Social Stable with Chris Hughes, and commentary by Richard Hoiles and Mark Johnson. Many fans of the Royal Ascot are also wondering if the Queen will make an appearance after she missed some events celebrating her Platinum Jubilee.

After Monday, June, 20, when the two shows will return, they are set to remain in their normal time slots of 4pm and 5pm. Recently a Tipping Point contestant made 'history' by breaking a show record. The show has also changed its rules in the past month so that a blind Welsh contestant could take part. Lisa, a payroll administrator from south Wales, had her mum Karen on hand to select where she dropped her counters in the machine. Tipping Point and The Chase will return on Monday, June, 20 on ITV. Tipping Point will begin at 4pm and The Chase at 5pm.
