MediaGuardian reports that the Star Wars movies will be replacing ITV1's Celebrity Wrestling on Saturday nights from May 21st:

The show will appear in the 6.30pm slot for the last time this Saturday. It will then be replaced by repeats of the Star Wars movies, which ITV executives hope can dent Doctor Who's ratings.

Nigel Pickard, the ITV director of programmes, said: "It was a good idea and we gave it a shot. We will go with the billing this week then move it. The Star Wars film that replaces it will co-incide with the launch of the new Star Wars so it's good timing."

"Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" will air May 21st on ITV1. Click on the link above to read the full article. Thanks to Tony for the alert.
