BBC Cancels Ten Pound Poms After Two Series

The decision follows a steep ratings decline alongside costly, location-heavy production.

Overview

  • The BBC confirmed the drama will not return for a third run after its second series aired earlier this year.
  • Audience figures fell from about 6.37 million at launch in 2023 to roughly 3.15 million by the end of series two.
  • The latest season concluded on a cliffhanger, leaving key storylines unresolved for viewers.
  • Star Michelle Keegan shifts to ITV’s six-part crime drama The Blame as Sky’s Brassic reaches its final season.
  • The show was produced by Eleven and filmed in Australia, and cast had indicated openness to more episodes only if demand justified it.
