Sky cancels music quiz after one series

Sky 1 has cancelled its music quiz Bring The Noise.

The show, featuring comedians Katherine Ryan and Joel Dommett as regulars, failed to attract audiences executives hoped for.

It started with an audience of 400,000,well above the slot average, but dipped to a low of just 81,000 – so will not be coming back for a second run.

Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson hosted the show, with fellow musicians Nicole Scherzinger and Tinie Tempah also regulars.

Sky commissioner Celia Taylor told trade magazine Broadcast: 'I loved Bring The Noise. It was so on brand, I loved the talent, energy and scale. The production values were extraordinary and it was made by a fantastic team.

But she added: 'Our viewers didn’t love it quite as much as we did so we’re not bringing it back.'

Last month, Ryan was announced as one of the comedians taking part in the second series of Taskmaster on Dave.
