Where did you hear the Steel River Blues has been axed?

An ITV statement.


From 12 February until Easter looks like it will be,

6.00 Ant and Dec's Takeaway
7.00 Stars
8.00 Millionaire

That should boost the ratings.

I thought Scream was a decent enough series for a Saturday night, shame it ended. I dont like Ant and Dec's Takeaway or Millionaire, I find them really boring, the only decent thing at the moment on a Saturday is Stars in their eyes. Is Davina's Love on a Saturday night returning or has that been axed?

How do you know about that? They've only got one more show of the series to show. Surely they aren't axing with only 1 more programme to screen?

ITV do seem a bit desperate on Saturdays right now. Rolling Eyes

I thought ITV were crazy to launch Scream, a new six week series on the evening of January 1.In addition, changing the time slot in week three did not help, i wish they would stop doing that.You never know from week to week when a show is being transmitted on a Saturday.
I wouldn't say Love will never return, in the meantime a new reality dating show will air this year.

It MAY be because of the current situation in Chechnya, where the final episode was set. I am sure it will be shown at some poiint.

Yes it is annoying when they move stuff around the schedule on a Saturday, although Saturday is the ONLY night we have no soaps so thats good as its nice to have a break from them. The X Factor had to be moved from its 7pm to about 6.10pm during the middle of its series to make way for Ant and Dec, and only returned to around 7 ish when Takeaway finnished, I thought that was unfair.

Im not sure about Love on a Saturday Night, one source says it will return, another says it wont.
