Fan favourite documentary series pulled from screens in latest TV schedule shake-up
A FAN favourite documentary series has been pulled from screens in the latest TV schedule shake-up.
Natural History Museum: World of Wonder has been pulled from Channel 5‘s schedules.
The show was meant to bring viewers behind the scenes of the museum, which is located in London.
During the series the numerous teams that work at the iconic building were to give a glimpse into their work.
However, in a move that will leave fans devastated, the show won’t be going ahead as planned.
Its scheduled broadcasts on Friday, May 24 and the following week, May 31, have been pulled.
Instead the show has been replaced by repeats of Ambulance Code Red.
The Sun Online has contacted Channel 5.
The first two episodes of the new series were aired as planned, with the latest being shown last night.
It comes after episodes of 90s reboot Challenge Anneka were dropped from the schedule in March.
In a statement released to The Sun, the broadcaster said: “The first episode of Challenge Anneka was enjoyed by 1.25 million / 10% viewers, but Saturday evenings are always highly competitive, especially at this time of year.
“The public and critical reaction to Challenge Anneka’s return has been amazing and we have decided to preserve the remaining two shows and reschedule them soon.”
One of the remaining episodes was broadcast on Monday evening which delighted fans.
