I miss their pre-titles sketch and a decent title sequence. Would like it to go on a break for a few years... the last break did it some good.
The running down the stairs is not the same since they moved to TVC, or they just have gotten older. I like Ant going into the audience and getting interactive with the audience but some of the 1st part skits miss their mark no matter how well intentioned they are. Ring my bell and ready my lips could do with being rested to allow them to try out some other fresh ideas.
The happiest "minute" could be made more special giving researched winners something more meaningful to them rather than a place on the plane.
The acting sketch should be dropped, yes it's nicely pre-recorded which probably makes it useful for logistical purposes.It also fills 30mins around Christmas. But its not memorable and its wasted time recapping the previous one.
Get out of my ear and undercover just seem meh recently. When done right, they are great but something new could freshen the middle of the show up.
They should try something new with win the ads, maybe work in an interactive game element a bit like grab the ads instead of a quiz. The wind kind of goes out the sails when they lose. something a little different might hold my attention, its become samey.
They need a better reason to go around the country. I'm not saying they should bring back the jiggy bank and that mouse and cheese maze but it needs better interactivity than they get a load of people to descend to light up a grid of people.
The end of the show show is mostly alright. The final show does not need to go abroad, it might be technically. impressive but just is a bit meh. With it being daylight, it feels like it's a disconnect with a Saturday night.
I wonder if it would have better energy if it was an hour rather than 90mins allowing it to cut out the filler or go 2 hours making giving the 2nd hour a different feel. Kind of like how Saturday morning Kids shows used to aim older as they went on.
It just feels too formulaic. Before when they had things like 'escape from takeaway prison' that lasted a single series, the following series at least tried to do different things
