I heard TX Media have bought the Planet 24 name and plan to produce magazine shows?
There wasn't much left of Planet 24 since it was assimilated into ITV plc via Carlton after The BIG Breakfast ended.
IIRC, the only major Planet 24 production since then was Survivor ... and look what happened there! Axed by ITV,
but the US version still goes on as a popular fixture on the CBS network over there.
I wonder what Sir Bob thinks of these alleged plans to resurrect his old production company?

DA
Didn't Survivor [UK] end before The Big Breakfast did? I'm pretty sure The Big Breakfast bigged it up by having an exclusive (i.e. no one else wanted it) interview with the evicted contestant each week.
Anyway, what was this thread about again? Oh yes, things that are never gong to happen. So, is it time for Watercolour Challenge to make a come back?

JA
They were also behind last months successful one-off Challenge Anneka special on ITV1.
It is amazing how many people don't even remember this despite it only being last month.
I didn't even know that was on at all. I thought the last Challenge Anneka revival was about 4 years ago!
Same here. I'd say the source David got his info from hasn't been updated since then.

Big Breakfast finished on 29 March 2002. Survivor finished on 29 May 2002. So DJGM is correct.
