to be glad Ant n Dec will no longer be on our screens!

[quickname]

I have never understood what anyone liked about them and they were on absolutely everything for so long!

Looking forward to fresh faces and no longer seeing theirs!

Enjoy it while you can. I suspect they'll be back

I hope I'm A Celebrity isn't affected. I like that.

I agree with you op but I don't think we've seen the last of them on our TVs unfortunately.

Ohh look! Someone else who hasn't got a remote control to pick one of the other 147 channels on offer!

A bit nasty I think.

I feel really sorry for Dec to be honest. His career may be scuppered and it wasn’t even his fault!

No chance. Itv will bend over backwards to get them up and running again.

I'm sick to death of Holly and Phill so I hope they're not asked to fill in

Fairlea I'm not being unreasonable here but what makes it not his fault when he blew over the limit,have I missed something during the past few days. ?

I would love to see something new and fresh on Saturday night tv so YANBU.

They'll be back. This is a blip. Dec wasn't over the limit. Do keep up.

@abigailsnan - it's Ant who was drink driving, not Dec!

Anyway to alert MN Towers that Ant and Dec need their own forum?

Totally agree, they're like a couple unfunny, overgrown, hyper children.

It was Ant not Dec! Dec hasn’t done anything wrong and suddenly he’s thrown in the predicament of effectively having his tv career ruined.

I think Fairylea is pointing out that Ant and Dec's success is that they are a duo package. Ant has royally fucked up meaning that his actions (Ant) will invariably negatively impact Dec's career.

I think it's time for fresh faces but unless someone has stapled you to the couch and thrown your remote control into the ocean then there's nothing stopping you from avoiding them.

I know what you mean about fresh talent and the same old faces which have been around for 20+ years. That said, I loved Bruce F on Strictly, as well as other experienced tv and radio presenters like Zoe Ball, Alexander Armstrong, Mary Berry, Rhod Gilbert, Jeff Stelling, Gary Lineker, Claudia Winkelman, Graham Norton, Rob Brydon, Jo Whiley, Kirsty Wark - and I think that election night wouldn't be the sane without Dimbleby, so I can't really complain! I also wouldn't want a scenario where presenters routinely were put out to pasture at 40.

On a personal note, I wish Ant the very best.

I don't imagine they're particularly in love with you either, op.

Never could stand either of them and HATE I'm a Celebrity - absolute rubbish.

I have a remote control. Get one.
I live pretty much oblivious to Chelsea/Towie/Geordie etc

Have I missed an announcement?

You do realise OP that you’ve never needed to watch them so whether they’re on tv or not doesn’t actually affect you.

They're not my cup of tea. I watch very little on ITV because I really don't like the stuff they churn out, all a bit downmarket and mindless. (Quite like the dramas like Endeavour or Vera, but on catchup.)

I do feel sorry for Dec though. His career has been ended/halted through no fault of his own as he is one half of a double act and always has been.

I do think though that it's a fair point that ITV develops new talent - it appears that they have Ant, Dec, Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield on pretty much everything.

Totally talentless pair, how they have got on like they have done is beyond me. I think it was because they are very bland and safe.
Time for a change, theres nothing to stop either of them from going to college and retraining or just looking for other work. Thats what everyone elce has to do when they lose their jobs.
They have made their money both of them and could just live off that for the rest of their lives.

But they would have been no longer on your screen for years if you had just changed the channel.

Do you really think it means they’ll no longer be on TV?

And do you usually relish in the misfortune of others?
