Overview

• ITV confirmed there are no plans to extend the three-part series beyond its initial run, though episodes remain available on ITVX.
• Noel Edmonds’ Kiwi Adventure averaged 1.1 million overnight viewers and failed to enter the top 50 most-watched shows during its June broadcast.
• ITV executives set a 1 to 1.5 million viewers-per-episode target for renewal, but the series fell short of that benchmark.
• Edmonds released a YouTube video denouncing reports of a recommission as “ridiculous posturing” and criticized the network’s public statements.
• Sources close to Edmonds say flooding at his River Haven estate in New Zealand disrupted production and contributed to the show’s suspension.
