This was presumably the channel's get out clause, and why Ofcom stated they had "no issue with this programme's editorial format in principle".Well yes there is no issue with the format, and it's something that other broadcasters have done in the lead up to other elections.
But... it's never a case of 'we might do another at some point in the future', they're always planned as a series of programmes and promoted as such.
Also of course it's all very well saying that they would do another episode with Kier Starmer, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily going to be fair and something that they'd agree to . Also there's more than two parties, why just two?
FWIW the programme seemed to me to be more of a set up for Sunack, if the aim was to help then it failed. Seemed to me like it did better business for Reform.
