ITV

It's terrible that so many people are going to lose their jobs at ITV, but do they really think that cutting the drama programming and having more reality shows is going to save them? How can they not realise that part of the reason they're in so much trouble is the amount of absolute rubbish like this that they've been broadcasting over the last 5 years?
The awful reality shows (Celebrity Love Island to name just one) and badly made rip-offs of programmes that have already been done (and better) usually by the BBC - as much as I love Schofe, what else is Dancing on Ice except a poor imitation of Strictly Come Dancing?
I won't be sorry to see Heartbeat and the like go, but things like Wire in the Blood are the only reason we've bothered to turn over to their channel for quite some time (apart from F1 which they thankfully don't have any more anyway). 
I fear the final demise of ITV is definitely on the cards, and that will be a shame.
