Won't be watching - but then I don't think I watch anything on ITV apart possibly from Lewis if I bump into it in the schedules. Used to love TV Burp.
Absolutely terrible decision to allow Wonga (loans with representative APRs of 4124% - which some would describe as 'legal loan shark' territory) to sponsor a show based around a gambling theme. Seriously terrible.
Amazed Ant and Dec and their people allow them to be associated with this.
Watched one episode of the first series to see if it was as bad as people said - and it confirmed it was. Sure they'll have re-engineered it - but don't want to give Wonga a second of my viewing.

You may be equally unimpressed to learn that STV allowed Screws replacement, The Sunday Sun, to sponsor an entire day of programming then - right in the middle of the enquiry into ethics in the press, when the stories of foul practice at News International was at its worst.

You've got to assume it's some fear of turning Cowell's work down.

I can't see anyone coming out of that deal well. I fully expect to see headlines such as "Simon Cowell company quizzed by MPs" or "Red or Black rapped for exploiting the gullible".

Actually, they were recorded in June/early July, I was a Stand In contestant on the programme. Also I don't think they're going live this series judging by the way it was recorded.
