Overview
- Creator James Graham confirmed on Wednesday that the completed third series will be the show’s final run and is slated to air in the January–February window on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
- Production on series three began earlier this year and Graham says the episodes have been finished and edited for broadcast.
- Key original cast members including David Morrissey and Lesley Manville return while new additions such as Rosalie Craig and Joe Dempsie join a storyline set six months after the last finale and focused on the Woods family.
- Fans reacted with disappointment online to news the series will conclude, reflecting the show's strong regional resonance in Nottinghamshire and the East Midlands.
- Graham plans to move on to adapt his West End and Broadway play Punch for television, a project also rooted in the same regional social themes the series explores.
