The Wheel has spun itself a riddle with bizarre scheduling.Last Saturday, the latest episode of Michael McIntyre's gameshow was shelved by the BBC and a repeat was shown in its place.Viewers were disappointed when they tuned in and realised it was an old episode.One said: "Absolutely p*** poor from the #bbc to show a repeat of #thewheel at half eight on a Saturday night."This is not good enough and not what we expect from the licence fee."Another moaned: "Sod off BBC.

The Masked Singer have been trying to figure out the identity of Traffic Cone for weeks - but an expert may have finally cracked the code.That's because body language buff Inbaal Honigman thinks it could be famous comedian Michael McIntyre who is hiding behind the hefty orange outfit.The hit ITV show, hosted by comedian Joel Dommett, sees judges Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan try to work out which celebrities are hiding behind their quirky costumes.Each week, the disguised stars take to the stage and sing famous songs - and the public are given new clues about the stars behind the mask.Traffic Cone has sent fans wild with theories of who it could be, ranging from singer Rick Astley to Neighbours legend Jason Donovan.However, body language expert Inbaal Honigman took a closer look at the cone-shaped character's behaviour, and she unearthed some juicy insights about their personality.Speaking exclusively to Daily Star, Inbaal revealed that the celebrity is an "open book".She said: "His hands work in unison with one another - most of the time, he'll point with both hands, clasp both hands to his heart, flex both hands into fists at the same time. "This shows someone who's quite upfront - what's in his heart is what's outside, he's an open book and doesn't have skeletons in his closet."Inbaal reckoned the star lacks a dancing background due to their "clumsy" dance moves and "dad dancing" tendencies, but they do seem to know their way around a stage."His few dance moves, however dorky, also show how he works in coordination between his logic and his emotion.
