I can’t see how Ring my Bell is now seen as something that needs to be dropped when it only started last year and they’ve probably done it about 5 times? Similar shows to Takeaway both currently and in the past run a feature much more than 5 times!

The other bits like Read My Lips literally appear twice a year. How would people have coped when Noel Edmonds would run the same items every week for about 22 weeks, and then often they’d come back again another year for another 22 goes.

The murder mystery sketch is so Ant and Dec can do a bit of acting, which they like to keep dipping their toe into.

In regards to What’s Next? Wasn’t it pretty much the same as Ant vs Dec, just that they didn’t know what it was, and there was no series long scoring? It was generally some sort of challenge or game they had to play against each other?

I agree about the opening pre titles sketch and the longer titles, that short sting that just bursts in and then we are straight in just seems too abrupt

I’m not sure what unplanned chaos in the past that doesn’t happen now people are referring to? You still get bits now like Cynthia on Ring my Bell, or an audience member doing something wrong in one of the games, one of them slightly tripping up on the autocue which they would make fun of, the fun they have with Stephen when they try and trip him up, or Jordan almost turning the golf buggy over in episode 1. What more are you wanting?
