Fans of The Chase were confused as the show started 30 minutes earlier today.
Normally the ITV quiz show starts at 5pm each weekday. But today, host Bradley Walsh welcomed four new players - Mark, Lin, Nathan and Cat - to take on chaser Paul Sinha half an hour earlier than expected.
Many weren't impressed with the impromptu schedule change and they took to Twitter to complain. Victoria said: "It’s weird having chase on at 4.30 #TheChase."

Another user said: "What in the space / time continuum is going on , it's not 5 o'clock yet #TheChase" A third added: "#TheChase is on at the wrong time."
It comes as the FIFA World Cup is taking priority across ITV and the BBC. Since the football competition kicked off both broadcasters have made several schedule changes to their programming to ensure that no one misses any of the all important matches.
As a result, The Chase was forced to air at an earlier time on December 1. ITV soap Emmerdale has also been taken off air for the night as Japan go head to head with Spain in Qatar.
