Writen by Jack Thorne, the six-part series launched last September, starring Iain De Caestecker (Coronation Street), Daniel Kaluuya (Skins) and Johnny Harris (This is England ’86).

The show’s official Twitter feed confirmed yesterday: “With a heavy heart we have to tell you that we won’t be back for another series. You’re all amazing, we couldn’t have hoped for better fans.”

Speaking exclusively to CultBox last year, actor Tom Ellis commented: “What I recognise about this show is that each episode ends and you just go ‘I want do know more!’. I think you’re left like that at the end of the series, so as an actor and as a viewer I’d be intrigued to see where it goes in a second series.”
