BRENDAN O'Carroll will keep writing more Mrs Brown's Boys episodes - despite many viewers calling for the BBC to axe the sitcom.

Ratings for the 2024 Christmas Day special of the show raked in just 2.2 million viewers, compared to the 11.5 million people who tuned into the sitcom's first festive special in 2013.

Even though some shared their disgruntled views on Mrs Brown's Boys on X - including a person saying it is "the most idiotic show on TV throughout the past decade" - the programme is still proving popular.

Jon Petrie, director of comedy at the BBC, said in July it is one of the corporation's "most-watched comedies ever".

Expect a rule of Laur

NEWSBOY'S ITV SELECTIONS POET LAUREATE gets the vote to make the most of the weight he receives from rivals in the Fitzdares Sovereign Handicap Hurdle (3.35) at Windsor. The form of his two-and-three-quarter-length defeat of Phoenix Risen at Wincanton nine days before Christmas needs improving on, but the Chris Gordon trainee has plenty more to come. Nemean Lion defends his title in the Weatherbys Cheltenham Festival Betting Guide Hurdle (3.00), but preference is for ALTOBELLI, for whom conditions are tailor made. LARGY FORCE is also at her best when the mud is flying, and a 2lb rise for a score at Uttoxeter may not be enough to prevent the follow-up in the Fitzdares Mares' Handicap Chase (2.25). He'll go off at cramped odds for the Grade 2 Fitzdares Your Personal Bookmaker Lightning Novices' Chase (1.50) but BE AWARE should make no mistake.
