Bullseye Christmas Special Draws 3.3 Million Viewers

The reboot of the classic darts game show 'Bullseye', hosted by former cricketer Freddie Flintoff, became ITV's most-watched program over the weekend, with 3.3 million viewers tuning in for the Christmas special. Fans and critics have praised Flintoff's performance as host, with many urging ITV to commission a full series. Viewers appreciated the show's adherence to the original format, though some expressed disappointment over modern changes, such as the opening credits and added audience reactions. The show featured teenage darts sensation Luke Littler and outperformed other ITV programs, sparking further calls for it to become a regular fixture. Despite some criticism over minor changes, the revival has been largely welcomed, evoking nostalgia and excitement among its audience. ITV bosses are now under pressure to continue the series in response to the positive reception.
