After fans were left gutted by the show coming to an end this weekend, Ant and Dec have announced that Limitless Win is coming back for a second series.
The high stakes game show, which sees pairs of contestants take on the Money Ladder in the hope of bagging life changing amounts of money, proved to be an immediate ratings winner for ITV when it launched last month.
The biggest win on Limitless Win so far has been £500,000, which the first pair of contestants won in episode 1. That was followed by a £250,000 win for over the moon father and son duo Tony and Zee a week later.
Ahead of Saturday's final episode, Ant and Dec have teased an even bigger win and then on Thursday morning, the Geordie duo had some huge news, when they revealed that Limitless Win is getting a second run.

In quotes released by ITV, Ant said “We are thrilled that Limitless Win has been a hit with the viewers and is coming back for more. We’re beyond excited to be able do it all over again and we can’t wait to find new contestants to play the first TV show with a limitless jackpot!”
Dec added: said “We’re already preparing ourselves for another series of nail-biting drama, jeopardy and tension as we present more questions you can’t help but Google! We’re expecting more, and higher, dizzying climbs up the Limitless money ladder. We can’t wait.”
Limitless Win pulled in 6.1 million viewers for its launch episode, becoming ITV’s biggest brand-new entertainment series launch since The Masked Singer.
Katie Rawcliffe, ITV Head of Entertainment Commissioning commented: “Ant & Dec’s Limitless Win has quickly become an audience favourite, with families up and down the country playing along from home- from searching their kitchen cupboards to identify the length of a Pringles tube to Googling the width of Michael Jordan’s handspan.
