Chris Eubank's Osbournes-style reality show At Home With The Eubanks has been scrapped by Five, according to Broadcast today.
The series - which followed the Eubank clan through their daily lives - had been initially met with high expectations, but failed to draw significant audiences when it aired last autumn. Episode one drew 1.4 million viewers, a figure which had fell to 0.8 million by the end of the ten-episode run.
Although Eubank is being dropped, Five said it would retain the At Home With... format to use it with other celebrities.
A spokesman for the channel confirmed: "We will be looking for other public figures to be part of the strand later in the year."
