Maybe just wrong time of year? As in, it might be fine if it was on an hour earlier, and not up against Takeaway (which seems to have been the reason for the late timeslot, they were trying to avoid that clash)?

Yes but depending on the time of year an earlier Saturday slot it’d be up against either The Masked Singer, Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, Takeaway, BGT, Strictly or dumped in the middle of summer

Pretty poor treatment of a show to be honest, talent will be wondering why work with Channel 5 when they are so ruthless. Other channels like ITV stick with flops like Next Level Chef all the way to the end

Production companies can't afford to be picky and TBH Channel 5 aren't the only ones who pull underperforming shows, Channel 4 do it from time to time. In the case of ITV, they want to be the business of Ramsay and it was a fairly lengthy series at 8 episodes. ITV can suck up a failing series, Channel 5 can't.

CA lost half its audience week on week, that suggests the trajectory was only going one way.
