Quiz shows are actually much cheaper than regular scripted shows. For the BBC specifically, they released [this document](http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/commissioning/site/tariff_prices_for_independents.pdf) covering how much certain types of shows cost. Quiz shows are in the “low-cost entertainment” category. Almost 20 times cheaper to produce than premium dramas.
So the answer to your question is really just “The same way other shows get their money.”
For the BBC that’s mostly the TV license, but for ITV where both of the shows you listed air it’s mostly advertising.
