You Bet! – which is based on the German show Wetten, das…? – originally hit our screens in 1988 and was presented by Bruce Forsyth until 1990. 

It aired on our screens until 1997. 

The show had a number of presenters including Bruce, Matthew Kelly and Darren Day.

You Bet! was revived in December last year, with Stephen and Holly taking on the role as presenters. 

In March this year MailOnline revealed that Holly had quit her role as host.  

ITV sources told us that she is ‘busy with other commitments’, which meant she was unable to return to the programme she hosted a two part special last year alongside Stephen Mulhern. 

A source told the Mail: ‘You Bet was so popular with the viewers wished it came back for two shows that ITV bosses decided to give it a full run.

‘Holly and Stephen are a great double act and they were both brilliant so they were asked back.

‘But Holly politely declined, she has other commitments and couldn’t make it work.

‘She is in demand and now she isn’t shackled to This Morning four days a week, she is able to look at more options, some are global.

‘Celebrity Bear Hunt was a huge thing for her, her first role with Netflix and she just loved it and they loved her so there could very well be much more where that came from.

‘The world is now Holly’s oyster, there are so many opportunities for her.’
