Warning to ITV1 Scotland (STV) viewers!

Saturday Night Takeaway won't be until 10.15pm in your region this Saturday. This is because they are showing Scotland v Italy in the RWC.

It is still on at 7.15pm everywhere else with the Scotland game on ITV4.

I find it pathetic how YET AGAIN they have managed to 'run out of time' to only have one caller for the grab the ads!

It would take another 15 seconds to get another winner?

Presumably viewers in Scotland will be warned that they can't phone in to play along... otherwise you're looking at another golden OFCOM moment coming up.

Incidentally, what are Border Scotland doing? Going with STV or sticking with the network? The use of the stv.tv dog at the top right suggests the former.

The lines for the following/next week's 'Grab the Ads' open after the evening's game has been played. Thus it is (hopefully) clear to callers that they are not phoning/registering for a chance to take part this week, but for the following week. It also allows for various regions (well STV and possibly UTV) shifting the programme to a different part of the evening.

At least those in Scotland might have had a chance at the gamble question, as it was connected to Scotland.

Ant & Dec didn't sound too impressed that they were on so early when they said that. I can only assume there is a rugby match on something as that is very early, and I doubt ratings will be as good as a result.

Oh dear, too much Rugby Smile I sincerely hope it doesn't start at 5.28pm however, as it is published as starting at 5.30pm, and starting more than 1 minute early is a contrvenance of licence with OFCOM ISTR... Smile

Is it just my imagination or are the gamble questions a lot harder this series than previous series?

It's a Rugby World Cup Quarter Final followed by Big Fight live next Saturday from 7.45pm meaning there's only Takeaway and The X Factor from the usual Saturday lineup
