I have a feeling she might not want to do it again anyway, she didn't look at all comfortable during some of the trials and she is pretty squeamish, will be interesting to see if she would do it again, personally I would rather she didn't given she has loads of other shows and it is Ant and Dec's show, it would be like inserting her between the Chuckle Brothers or Morcambe and Wise, its a double act not a triple act, if anyone was going to do it I would like to see Stephen Mulhern he wouldn't take the trials as seriously as Holly

It's I'm A Celeb, not Saturday Night Takeaway, who cares about a few jokes made during a link before the ad breaks?
Half the audience! Ant & Dec’s links are the only good thing about this show, and without them it wouldn’t be half as popular because the actual format is tired. Why do you think they splashed the cash on a big name line up? To account for Ant’s departure, and to their credit it worked

The only reason I still watch is for their links, and I’d be willing to bet that without them both the show would lose about 4-5m viewers, such is their pulling power

Not sure I agree with that, they go way back. Like in the early years of 04/05/06 when they had the pet koala/kangaroo in the studio, they did loads of links with them, or Ant’s Eric Bristow impression in 2012, even stuff like “evening Prime Minister” and “I’ll smash your face in” which have become catchphrases in their own right. There’s not one every year, but certainly most

The last great one of course is the Celebrity MasterChef gag, which culminated in the best link of all time (and still goes viral every year)

Little Dennis Wise was brilliant too

Jarrod 11-12-2018 12:11 PM
Yup, give Holly the job full time. I get tired of seeing Ant and Dec on the TV half the time anyway, what with SNT and BGT. I like the dynamic between Holly and Dec for this series and I think it came through in the ratings.

and tbf as far as I can remember that gag was pretty much all Dec anyway

last years show, i really only watched it for ant and decs banter and them taking the piss out of the celebs, with Holly, it just wasn't the same. Ant and Dec can carry a series even if the celebs are crap

Well she's been such a hit that ITV Bosses want her to Return with Ant and Dec Next Year. That would be the perfect Scenario imo

I thought that too, But she's been such a Massive Hit and Has received a Positive Reception and Hugh Praise from Viewers, she'd be Crazy to turn down a chance to return. Seeing as how she had massive shoes to fill and with many people doubting her, she managed to prove them wrong and stepped up to the plate.

All the Positive feedback should give her enough confidence to return.

Most of her doubters were haters before they'd even seen how she'd even been on screen ...

This tbh.

I think we all know Dec is the star. Ant is the interchangeable drunk straight man.

Exactly they had to pull it out of the bag this year to get viewers and they did...

Yes and I never thought I would say it as I have been an Ant and Dec fan for as long as I can remember. Ants life has been a train wreck this year and while I wish him the best I think its time to do something else.

Thats what finished me with having sympathy with him. He had presented the takeaway the night before then drove the car the following day knowing full well he was over the limit

Not gonna happen. But I wish it would, Ant and Dec as an act is tired and boring in 2018. Holly was just what Dec needed to shine.

They're so predictable nowadays that they could just use old footage of them in the next show and nobody would notice

Pretty much. Holly was a hit because her reaction was most the viewers at home.

Elliot 12-12-2018 02:21 PM
she made me realise how tired the whole ant and dec thing got. Holly gave the show a much needed revitalisation to the dynamic

zrc 12-12-2018 03:06 PM
And when Ants back next year watch the ratings tank.

Bring Ant back!
