The show failed to capture a larger market share than its competitor Breakfast, and on 18 November 2011 it was announced that Chiles would be axed from the show.

In 1996, he played the role of Ace Face/Bellboy at the Who's performance of Quadrophenia at London's Hyde Park. More generally though Chiles deserves a lot of praise for making what is effectively a self-help book a charming and enjoyable read, never pompous or preachy.

How I learnt to drink less and enjoy it more — by Adrian Chiles

On I stumbled through life with miserable vigour – fidgeting, jabbering on, taking up new hobbies/obsessions all the time.

I would have given it more stars just for the enjoyment it brought but I'm conflicted about the whole thing. He is a supporter of West Bromwich Albion Football Club, [5] where he is a season-ticket holder and presenter on some of the club's official DVDs. Mayall appeared during Edmondson's winning performance of The Dying Swan on BBC One's Let's Dance for Comic Relief on 5 March 2011, and in September 2011, Edmondson appeared on the Sunday morning cooking show Something for the Weekend and told presenter Tim Lovejoy that he and Rik Mayall were planning to reunite and make another series of Bottom, set in an old people's home.
