With the shorter run for SITE & I believe for GYAT compared to splash & DOI what is planned for the end of feb?

Saturday Night Takeaway on the one night and I think Sunday Night at the Palladium is due back on the other. I'll let you work out which night each airs.

Clearly no big budget for Stars in Their Eyes, Most of the staff are already in the building done stuff.



What do you mean? Stars in Their Eyes is made by Initial (an Endemol company). It is also filmed at Elstree (if by 'building' you mean ITV's London Studios on the Southbank?...

Thank you brekkie. I'll ponder over that one. Razz

I thought Saturday's show was good, and that the further tweaking had improved it further.

I suspect filming each episode in the week leading up may also help, as I think contestants now know roughly what to expect, and seem more relaxed during the pre-transformation 'interviews' with Harry. I also wonder how far in advance the contestants are chosen, and whether some may have been selected after the first episode had been recorded.

The showing a clip from the classic series is quite a clever idea. As well as linking to the past it shows even back then not all transformations were as perfect as some may like to think. In my opinion the show has the potential to merit a second series, though preferably better scheduled so that it doesn't clash with The Voice (or Strictly).

I think its getting better every week, I do like harrys performence at the start of each show. For what its worth this could come back in the summer as a good filler.

Kill the stupid TV Burp style gags and it would improve further, viewers clearly aren't warming to this b*stardised version.

I agree. Somebody's clearly listening to the feedback and changing the show accordingly. I wouldn't have said this based on the opening "TV Burp in new clothes" episode, but after yesterday's episode, I'd like to see a second series to be honest, but not up against The Voice or Strictly or anything like that.

Latest ratings - 1.86m (9.2%) viewers at 6:30pm. But it won more viewers than Planet's Got Talent. Smile

The ratings are a disaster for a Saturday night. It's a total collapse. It should never see the light of day again.
