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 daily show would be axed as part of a revamp of the channel's daytime schedule.[3] Hunniford continued to present occasional celebrity specials until November 2003.[4]
