Red or Black hosts Ant and Dec have admitted that the show could well be axed after flopping on ITV1 last week. What was billed as a huge TV event failed to attract viewers, with just over 4 million viewers tuning to some episodes.
Costing a reported £15 million to produce, the weeklong show failed to attract the 9 or so million viewers ITV were apparently expecting.
But while the future of the show in uncertain, Dec said the programme could still work with some tweaking.
He explained: “It was our first series and we all learned a lot from it. I think we can improve the show.
“We’ll just see what ITV says — they’re the ones who sign the cheques.”
And the Geordie telly presenter added: “Simon texted on Sunday morning when the viewing figures came in. It did well on Saturday and finished on a high.”
Simon Cowell last week insisted: “I’d change a few things but the response from the public is that they like it.”
