BBC axe Never Mind The Buzzcocks

The BBC have chosen to axe popular music panel show Never Mind The Buzzcocks after 19 years on screen.

The show, hosted by numerous personalities including Mark Lamarr, Simon Amstell and most recently Rhod Gilbert, was famous for its anarchic approach to the panel show format but after years of falling ratings, the BBC have made the decision to cancel the show.

"After 28 series we've decided not to bring Never Mind the Buzzcocks back to the BBC," said a spokesperson. "This will create space for new entertainment formats in the future".

As a lasting legacy, we thought we'd revisit our favourite moment from the show. And what other time than when Preston of The Ordinary Boys stormed off. Enjoy.
