Top of the Plots consisted of ten episodes and has now, sadly, come to an end! Over the course of the mini-series, Charlie, David and Harry gave their verdict on the most memorable moments from the past five series and all the challenges that have seen them go head to head. However, now with the mini-series finished, viewers are no doubt hoping for some brand new episodes pretty soon.

They added: "We are however hoping to make a couple of exciting announcements over the coming weeks so watch this space!"
