If you’re craving a Tuesday night that stays on the edge of your seat, ITV Quiz has you covered. From the familiar stakes of Deal or No Deal to the rapid-fire riddles of Riddiculous, the channel’s lineup offers a smorgasbord of brain‑twisting entertainment. Below, we break down each show, note the times in London (BST), and give you our candid verdict on which ones deserve the most of your attention.
Deal or No Deal – 09:00–10:00
Stephen Mulhern returns to the iconic set, pitting a new contestant against the infamous Banker. The tension is palpable, and the format remains a reliable source of intrigue. While it’s a classic, the pacing can feel a touch predictable for those who’ve seen it many times.
Tipping Point – 10:00–11:00, 11:00–12:00, 12:00–13:00, 13:00–14:00, 14:00–15:00, 15:00–16:00, 16:00–17:00, 17:00–18:00, 18:00–19:00, 19:00–20:00, 20:00–21:00, 21:00–22:00, 22:00–23:00, 23:00–00:00, 00:00–00:55
Ben Shephard’s entertaining host keeps the energy high as contestants battle a giant mechanical contraption for cash. The show’s repetitive nature can be a double‑edged sword: it’s comforting for casual viewers but may tire those seeking novelty. Still, the suspense keeps many glued to the screen.
Lingo – 13:00–14:00, 14:00–15:00, 15:00–16:00, 16:00–17:00, 17:00–18:00, 18:00–19:00, 19:00–20:00
Word‑play lovers will find Lingo a delightful challenge. The format’s simplicity is its strength, but the repetitive play‑style can feel a bit stale after several episodes. If you enjoy light, quick quizzing, Lingo remains a solid pick.
Tenable – 14:00–15:00, 23:55–00:50
Amateur dramatics meet trivia in Tenable. The quirky premise adds a fresh twist, but the format leans heavily on performance rather than pure knowledge, which may not appeal to purist quiz fans.
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? – 15:00–16:00
Six contestants face a one‑million‑pound challenge. The stakes are high and the format is proven. For viewers craving heart‑pounding tension, this is a must‑watch.
Riddiculous – 16:00–17:00, 00:50–01:45
Ranvir Singh’s rapid‑fire riddles test wits and reflexes. The fast pace can be exhilarating, but the rapid questioning may overwhelm casual viewers. Still, it’s a refreshing change from slower formats.
Millionaire Hot Seat – 20:00–21:30, 21:30–22:00
Jeremy Clarkson’s hot‑seat spins the classic Millionaire format into a race‑against‑time spectacle. The dynamic pacing keeps the energy high, and the presence of a familiar host adds an extra layer of fun.
Bottom line: ITV Quiz delivers a diverse mix of quiz formats that cater to both casual viewers and hardcore trivia enthusiasts. While some shows lean on familiar structures, the overall lineup promises plenty of moments that hold your attention.
