The second lockdown seems to have placed more of us in front of the telly at around 5pm, and the majority are currently opting for Bradley Walsh and The Chase, on ITV. On Tuesday it averaged 4.98m viewers, compared with 2.85m for Pointless, which is on a run of repeats.
Other schedulers are clearly aware of the pulling power of The Chase and its various spin-offs - and not beyond a repeat or two themselves. Challenge TV, part of Sky/Comcast, offers ten repeats a day. A glance across schedules of ITV, ITV4 and Challenge produces 84 hours a week of tv. If you scan Digiguide over the past 12 months, 3,789 episodes of The Chase have been shown. They haven't yet made more than 2,000.
