Will there be appetite for the show to return? Almost certainly, particularly if another similar live show doesn’t appear anywhere. People generally call for popular shows to come back all the time from the minute they are no longer shown

I wonder if they might be tempted to host a "Sunday night live at the palladium" type show, where they're hosting several guests acts.

I think it's reasonable to suggest Ant & Dec have learnt from the mistakes of Noel's House Party. Firstly, resting the series (temporarily/permanently) when it's still a relative high, rather than letting it significantly deteriorate. Secondly, being seen to be the ones ending it, rather than the channel 'axing' the show, even if it's not quite as simple behind the scenes. Thirdly, not throwing a massive tantrum and refusing to host the show for a week until problems are resolved.
