When it was announced that This Morning favourite Holly Willoughby and cricketing legend Freddie Flintoff would be jointly presenting a brand new sports reality series, set to air on ITV at prime-time, viewers couldn't wait to tune in. Although, it seems as though viewers were left less than impressed with what they saw on The Games however, as figures dipped lower and lower as each nightly episode aired earlier this month.

Colson Smith take part in a freestyle swimming race just five weeks after learning to swim, leaving him delighted as he smashed his personal best time despite coming last overall. A synchronised diving event also raised eyebrows as Ryan Thomas ended up with a wardrobe malfunction and mooned the cameras by accident as his Speedos were forced down by the impact of the water. Olivia Attwood had also overcome injury to triumph in the women’s breaststroke event, and the contestants also took on a canoeing challenge.
The end of the show was no less dramatic as Holly, 41, and Freddie, 44, decided they weren’t going to let the celebrity stars have all the fun.

You coming in?’, before the pair both launched themselves into the water as their guests screamed in surprise.
