Channel 4 said on Friday it has scrapped next year's "Celebrity Big Brother", one of its most popular shows, in sweeping changes to its primetime schedule.
Director of Television Kevin Lygo said all but one of the programmes currently shown at 9 p.m. will disappear from the 2008 line-up to clear the decks for new shows.
"It is time to be brutal with some much-loved shows in order, once again, to make way for the new," he said in a statement.
"Our ratings will almost certainly continue to fall, but the alternative is more of the same and that is not what the channel is about."
No more Z listers having brakedowns on TV for us to laugh at.
