Look out for repeats

With the World Cup starting on TV tomorrow (ITV 7pm), look out for repeats of programmes over the next few weeks.
Programmes like Mrs Brown's Boys, Benidorm, You've been framed and New Tricks will be shown again and again when there is not a football match on.
Also, BBC/ITV will have to rearrange episodes of Eastenders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Holby City and Casualty.
At present, it is probably better for BBC1/ITV to start a new programme (Masterchef aside) during the World Cup as it may not be on every week.
For example, ITV could show a new programme at 9:30 on Friday night after Coronation Street but they are showing the Switzerland v France game on June 20th so the new programme's second episode will be delayed for a week.
Or do you think that during the World Cup, it is a chance for broadcasters to show 'classics'? (e.g. Fawlty Towers etc)

There's so many of 'em already, you can hardly miss 'em!
No need to look out for ITV's, they've got a whole new channel for them!
ITV Encore.
or ITV +(1 ≤ x ≤ ∞) as mathematicians like to call it.
