[Amber Avenger]

Haven't enjoyed this series as much as previous ones but there have been some highlights in there such as What's Next and a couple of other bits celebrating the history of the show. Have never been a huge fan of Stephen but the Ant vs Dec In for a Penny was a lot of fun too.

Agree I think this is probably it for Takeaway after this week, but I think they want to avoid saying it's done completely because why not keep the door open. They have definitely been a bit vaguer on it being the "last series for now" than they were when it was announced

The "get out me ears" seemed like the sort of thing that should have run over two weeks - seemed a bit overkill to have both in one ep. I agree Simon and Amanda just didn't have the good natured spirit Dermot and Alison did - although in the end both couples were just reading off a script for a lot of - I presume Ant and Dec do have a few prompts too but are better improvisers on the spot. Simon especially was terrible and I noticed Amanda was driving most of it.

On Little Ant and Dec, I agree they have cast a bit too young. I wonder if they have rethought that as the series goes on - there is no mention of them that I can see doing an interview for the last show, so it'll have been a lot of effort for them to have just done two interview packages.

Hopefully there will be a couple of other surprises in there on Saturday too - a return to the pre-titles sketch would be nice. Roll the titles!
