What has replaced Loose Women on ITV?

As mentioned, the Cheltenham Races will instead air on ITV.

The Festival starts on Tuesday, March 16, and finishes on Friday March 19, with the first race getting underway at 1.20pm each day.

Horse racing fans you can watch it from 1pm until 4.30pm.

The lunchtime news has also been moved to accommodate the races, and will be on at 12.30pm.

The Festival was much criticised in March 2020 for allowing crowds of up to 250,000 people to attend, despite the coronavirus outbreak forcing many other sporting events to cancel just days earlier.

However in 2021 fans will unfortunately not be in attendance at the racecourse, with strict coronavirus protocols in place.

The highlight of the fixture - the Cheltenham Gold Cup - can be watched on ITV during the programme on Friday, March 19, with the race starting at 3.05pm.

When will Loose Women be back?

Fear not, Loose Women will return on Monday, March 22, 2021.

You can watch the panel from 12.30pm.

As always, you can catch up with past episodes on the .
