Let me tell you how this would come down in the US ---it may sound
cruel and heartless, but there's no way any broadcaster would let a
show as popular as ISIHAC end this abruptly. It's too important a
commodity.

I agree with Dean ...if Barry, Graeme and Tim want to continue, the
show will go on....with a new chairman. And this new chairman will NOT
be doing the same job that Humph did for 50+ series----this chair will
have a different "character" scripted for him/her, just as writers
scripted the "Chairman" character that Humph embodied.
