It was a blatant attempt to extend what they naively call their prime time entertainment slot. Why ITV consider David Walliams to be prime time value is way betond me. His antics may keep an X-Factor audience amused but he is actually only another camp comedian - something that is, thankfully, past its sell by date. I find his toilet humour and puerile remarks that hint at anal sex tiresome in the extreme. On top of that ITV threaten us with Gordon Ramsay, whose only talent is swearing a lot, John Bishop, the man with the most annoying accent on television, and Mel and Sue, who are little better than children's entertainers, as hosts for future episodes.
It is also quite amusing that Twitter users were complaining about following Broadchurch with something as awful as The Nightly Show. But they seem to have glossed over the fact that ITV happily followed the series of Endeavour with a new series of Broadchurch. We only had four episodes of Endeavour but we are now expected to swallow eight whole episodes of indecipherable and tedious growling.
