After being given a fairly well advertised move to 8pm on Sundays it was moved to Saturday evening after a few weeks.
Suddenly, after a couple more weeks it was moved again, this time to ever changing mid afternoon times on Sundays.
Although some past familiar robots were missing and producer interference was rife, a lack of viewing figures were cited as the main reason for it's cancellation. No wonder given the way Channel 5 treated it.
Thankfully when it was rebooted in 2016 it was back on BBC Two, sadly it was just getting good again when it was axed after three series.
TV shows that moved channel?
I hope Eggheads gets better treatment than a previous BBC Two move to Channel 5, that being Robot Wars back in 2003.After being given a fairly well advertised move to 8pm on Sundays it was moved to Saturday evening after a few weeks.
