In order to get some order to this article, would it be ideal to create separate pages for each series? Obviously it'll be difficult creating sufficiently filled pages for the series from 14 years ago, but we could work backwards from the current series. Eventually there could be a proper, standardised template for each series that would be devoted to this article only - allowing it to be clearer. It'd take a lot of work but I'm sure something could be figured...either way this page is - to put it bluntly - pretty messy. There just doesn't seem to be a sufficient amount of editors for this show here. TheMysteriousEditor (talk) 13:35, 5 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

I've made Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway (series 15). Obviously this page needs major work, and a consistent infobox must be developed asap. This show is the most popular of the year so far in the UK, and it needs decent Wikipedia articles. TheMysteriousEditor (talk) 22:56, 6 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
The only true way to sort this out is to do the following:
  • Redo the Lead to a better standard.
  • Clear out any information about segments, especially anything that is unreferenced - giving out results for Ant vs. Dec, for example, might be notable, but without any citations, this will be practically [[WP:OR|original research.
  • Retain info on ratings, guest announcers and the short summary of the series at the beginning of each Series sub-section.
  • Create a Series Overview section, containing a table for the Series Averages of each series.
Making separate articles for each series, in my opinion, would be completely pointless, since it would be too time-consuming, and there's hardly much notability to give out details on segments and such. This article is brief, and best for the job. GUtt01 (talk) 00:02, 9 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Since I posted this, you have performed a major rework and removed 14,000 characters. NOW it's brief... TheMysteriousEditor (talk) 19:58, 9 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Well, we can't have that information on segments - that's format details, and best left to the main article. We also can't have detailed information on the mini-serials; we can have the information on casts, a short, generalised plot point, and information on the serial being condensed into a special episode. Finally, we can't have tables detailing out various segments, such as Win the Ads - that's unacceptable, cannot be verified, and pure original research. GUtt01 (talk) 23:03, 10 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

19th March 2018 - ITV statement about SNT edit

Shouldn't we add the statement ITV has provided about episode 5 and the absence of Ant in the final two episodes?

It can be retained in HIDDEN TXT for the time being until the series has ended, if you wish, but don't display it before the final remaining episodes have either been aired or pulled from broadcast.GUtt01 (talk) 22:57, 19 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

New potential series table list. This page is a bit of a mess. A lot of unsourced content and too many words. I propose series tables like the one below, and the deletion of all the challenges.
