The show was originally titled 'Eddie Eats America' and later rebranded for a spin-off edition due to travel restrictions as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.

It saw the 2017 World's Strongest Man champion travel to the US in a bid to try the biggest dishes.

Over the course of 12 episodes he visited a different state for a new physical challenge.

One episode saw Eddie, 35, travel to Queens to make a solo attempt at a huge Greek kebab banquet, while another saw him try a gigantic chicken fried steak - with no chicken.

Eddie Eats Christmas saw the boxer take on more eating challenges with the dishes all having a festive theme.

He travelled to Bradford in one instalment to challenge a 4kg naan bread that was accompanied by turkey curry.

When contacted by The Sun Online a spokesperson for UKTV confirmed Eddie's show would not be returning.

The show's axe comes after Eddie unveiled his impressive six stone weight loss.

The Brit took on his strongman rival in a match dubbed 'The Heaviest Boxing Match in History'.

Hall at the height of his power lifting career weighed 196kg, equivalent to 30 STONE.

But after agreeing to a grudge match in the boxing ring with Game of Thrones star Bjornsson, Hall significantly trimmed down.

He tipped the scales at a massive 158kg, or 24st 8lb, and demonstrated his ripped abs.
