It was announced on tonight's (March 14) Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway that the series finale live from Florida has been cancelled.
For "health reasons" relating to the coronavirus outbreak, each plane ticket holder - audience members who'd won the trip through the show - will still get their free holiday but at a later, unspecified date.
With Disneyland temporarily shutting down during this worrying time, it's no surprise to hear the news.

A representative for Saturday Night Takeaway previously confirmed: "The wellbeing of all our prize winners, as well as our production team, is always our number one priority.
"All recipients of a 'Place on the Plane' prize will have their prizes honoured and flown by Virgin Holidays for a 5-night stay at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida at such later date when it is practical for Virgin Holidays and Walt Disney World Resort to fulfil the prize."
This is just the latest entertainment title to be affected by the coronavirus pandemic, though it seems every prize winner will enjoy their trip eventually.
Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway returns next week (March 21) on ITV at 7pm.
