Lol I never watched this show (not a sports fan), but even I knew this show was finished when they got rid of Sue Barker, Phil Tufnell, and Matt Dawson in one fell swoop. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I used to enjoy it back in the day. I haven't watched it in several years though.

Tbh I think the formula got a bit stale.

That happens to every Show in the end though, so there's no shame in it.

NO



Not every show
for example, Ch5HD Live 9:15AM Mon-Friday
started years ago by Matthew Wright
who got the then Prime Minister Tony Blair
on his show Live, then.
A lady in the Small Audience approached Blair
with a paper note.
Casing a Security Live Alert.

Still Going Strong
with 2 added Live shows now (Mon-Fri)
after Jeremy Vine Live.


They are Produced in the ITN building

It has been a lot worse since the changes. Shame though as it always had a nostalgic feel for me and was very easy watching on a Friday evening, I'm tired of all TV needing to be heavy hitting drama these days

It also gave a lot of exposure to smaller sports as well

Yes, your last line there is a very strong point about this programme.

I don’t think I watched a single episode since Paddy took over. An irritant. Ugo is boring and Sam is a complete dullard. It was one of the worst producer decisions going. Butchered it
