The programme was one of Channel 5's earliest shows, attracting relatively strong ratings for Channel 5, with a regular audience of 900,000. However, despite its favourable ratings, it was announced in September 2002 that the show would be axed as part of a revamp of the channel's daytime schedule.[2] Although it continues to run newer episodes until it completely came to an end with an celebrity special in November 2003.[3]
