Martin Lewis issues urgent warning to 800,000 parents missing out on £2,000 to help with summer childcare costs A source close to the show said: "Everyone is stunned by the move - no one saw it coming. "Angellica has been an integral part of the show since 2017 so for her to be bumped off air with no warning is crazy. "Staff have naturally been talking and find the whole thing really awkward and unfair, but Martin is trying to keep out of it as it wasn't up to him.
"Bosses say due to The Gadget Show's rebranding as Shop Smart, Save Money concerns about editorial contradictions were raised, but in reality the decision had nothing to do with Angellica. "Many staff feel at the very least bosses could have given her warning or an option as to which show she wanted to continue with." 3 Martin has been helping Brits for years when it comes to all things money Credit: ITV.
