Getting rid of You Bet!, especially via the back door, was a huge mistake IMHO.


I couldn't agree with you more Simon. You Bet was brilliant, especially with Matthew Kelly. I watched an old episode on challenge today from 1994, and it was great. I remember Saturday nights watching You Bet, and they were brilliant nights. I think that it should be brought back.


Are they repeating Series 8 (1995), as my copy of Ep 3 is incomplete.


No, last Saturday it was from 1993.

BTW is Blind Date still in production?


It got axed in 2003, it then morphed into Love on a Saturday Night, but that axed after one series, no replacement was shown otherwise, so simply No.


I thought Love on a Saturday Night managed a second series? From discussions on here I remember one or two changes in the second (shorter) series. It ran for 6 weeks, Ant and Dec for the next 6 weeks, then Love was rumoured to return for another 6 weeks, but it didn't. I don't know.

I think it was the same series, they just split it in half so Ant and Dec could have a 6 week slot in the middle.
