'Trisha Goddard Show' cancelled by Five
The Trisha Goddard Show will not return to Five after its current run finishes.
Five's chair and CEO Dawn Airey claimed that the "present economic climate" was the central reason behind the broadcaster's decision not to renew their contract with production company Town House TV.
"Trisha Goddard has been a tremendous asset to Five's daytime schedule," said Airey. "I want to thank Trisha and the production team for their years of dedication and hard work.
"It is with great sadness and regret that we've come to this conclusion, but in the present economic climate, it feels like the right time to go our separate ways."
She added: "We are currently reviewing all our business practices and contracts and need to focus our resources on the most commercially critical parts of the schedule."
Goddard, who was given the all-clear in November after winning her battle with breast cancer, commented: "I have enjoyed my time at Five but I look forward to exciting new challenges ahead."
