History

The series, broadcast on ITV since August 2002, is produced by ITV Studios (previously known as Granada Productions), a British company.

The new series, shown on NBC in 2009, ran for 14 episodes, and followed the same format as the United Kingdom version of the same show. On March 8, 2010, NBC announced that there would not be a third season.[1][2]

Season 1 (2003)
