Two huge quiz shows pulled off air all week – as Loose Women is also given the boot by ITV

TWO huge quiz shows have been pulled from ITV's schedules all week.
Fans hoping to get their daily teatime fix of quizzes have been left sorely disappointed and will continue to be, with no plans for either show to make a return this week.

Both Tipping Point and The Chase have been shelved from airing all week.
Fronted by Ben Shephard, Tipping Point usually screens for one hour at 4pm to see if anyone can win the jackpot prize.
ITV then continues its quizzing line-up with award-winning hit The Chase at 5pm.
Bradley Walsh hosts as a team of contestants take on one of the Chasers in hopes of taking home a huge sum of money if they can beat them in the final chase.
But neither show will air as a result of live coverage of Royal Ascot.
ITV has been forced to revamp their afternoon schedule entirely in order to accommodate broadcasting the horse racing event.
It has even seen daytime show Loose Women axed all week.
In order to air the racing, This Morning has been extended by 30 minutes each day until 1pm.
This is followed by a 30 minute edition of ITV News airing at the earlier timeslot as opposed to its usual 1:30pm posiiton.
Royal Ascot coverage then takes over right up until 6pm.
The Chase embroiled in 'fix' row as viewers say ITV should be ashamed of 'ridiculously easy' questions - but would you get them-
ITV News then airs its evening updates between 6pm and 7:30pm as usual followed by the day's soaps.
It comes as Loose Women bosses are also reportedly axing a huge part of the show amid ITV budget cuts.
Producers have decided to drop the live studio audience next year as part of a series of cost-cutting changes to its daytime programming.
The show will return in 2026 with a reduced run of just 30 episodes - and without the 100-capacity crowd.
It follows broader budget reductions across the channel, which also include halving Lorraine's airtime to 30 minutes and airing it only during school term times.
Producers' decision to drop the audience is understood to be a cost-saving measure, as it is managed by an external company that provides security and a warm-up act.
ITV's daytime TV schedule changes in full
Good Morning Britain will be extended by 30 minutes to run from 6am to 9.30am daily.
Lorraine will run from 9.30am-10am, on a seasonal basis for 30 weeks of the year.
During the weeks Lorraine is not on air, Good Morning Britain will run from 6am to 10am.
This Morning will remain in its 10am-12.30pm slot on weekdays throughout the year.
Loose Women will be in the 12.30-1.30pm slot, again on a seasonal basis for 30 weeks of the year.
The changes will take effect from January 2026.

Toni was also seen talking about Emily to Shakira, who agreed with Toni's views. Following their row, an exasperated Emily said she thought Toni was "just trying to cause a problem," and "she's f****g nuts." But viewers watching at home accused the Islanders of bullying due to the many instances of gossiping about Emily without her knowledge.

Their chat might lead to a rekindling of their relationship with a preview of Sunday's episode showing the pair snogging enthusiastically. Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
