The BBC has reportedly axed Graham Norton's Totally Saturday.

According to The Sun, the 41-year-old's Saturday night show has been dropped due to poor ratings.

An insider is quoted as saying: "Totally Saturday has been totally disastrous. The BBC hoped it would be their answer to Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway on ITV.

"But viewers just don't seem to like it and even Graham is unhappy with it. He deserves much better than this turkey. It's got two more shows and then it's being consigned to the dustbin."

Piers Morgan recently mocked Norton for losing out to him in the battle for ratings.
