From BBC News.

It's been 11 years since we first stepped foot on the Isle of Fernando's, but now it's time for Take Me Out to turn out the light.

The dating show, hosted by Paddy McGuinness, has been cancelled by ITV after more than 100 episodes.

"We're heartbroken and devastated, it's how we met," former contestants Adam and Beckie Ryan told Radio 1 Newsbeat.

They were both on series eight and are now married with one child.

The show has seen eight weddings and six babies. Adam and Beckie credit the programme for bringing them together, even if the beginning wasn't exactly smooth.

Beckie, then 29, was initially rejected by Adam - he turned out the light on her and chose someone else, but then contacted her two days later.

"He says he was playing hard to get, but I think he panicked and realised that he needed me in his life," Beckie jokes.

Adam, then 32, sent a "cheeky message" while Beckie was actually on a date with someone else.

We have no idea what made it cheeky.

"I just took my chance, shot my shot and it worked," Adam says.

I think a break could do it good.

I don’t think axed forever. I could definitely see it coming back for charity specials or celeb versions but years down the line. I think it’s time for something fresh though. It just went as far as it could.
