BBC cancels HUGE reality show after just four series as channel has major production shake-up
The BBC has canceled the TV series Angels Of The North due to a major production shakeup.
The TV channel has canceled the reality show, which is based in the Northeast, after only four series.
The show, which aired on BBC Three, followed a group of stylists at one of the area’s best-known hair salons, Longlox.
During the most recent series finale, the women attended the Pride march last year, but little did they know at the time that this would be their last appearance on the BBC show.
A synopsis of the episode reads: ‘Angels Of The North join the Pride march in the final episode! Sammyjo and the Longlox girls do everything they can to support them, but how will Sammyjo survive the day in 10 inch heels?

‘At Pure Ink, Jade musters up the courage to get her first nose piercing. Can she convince Emma and Dan to become her first customers?
“Shane and John’s health kick continues with a bike ride from the Angel of the North back to Pure Ink, but there’s an unexpected bump in the road for John.”
BBC bosses have now confirmed that episode 10 of the final series was the last ever.
A BBC spokesperson told Deadline in a statement that there are “no plans” for the show to return.
They said: “While there are no plans for another series of Angels of the North, we would like to thank everyone involved in making the program for giving our audience a glimpse of the big hair and big style of some of the greatest personalities of the Northeast.”
It comes after BBC bosses recently canceled The Tuckers after just three series.
The sitcom, which followed a tight-knit family of ‘lovable scoundrels’ in the valleys of Wales, debuted on BBC One in 2020.
With Lynn Hunter, Robert Pugh, Kimberley Nixon and Alexandria Riley leading the cast, their characters often found themselves on the wrong side of the law.

Earlier this year, BBC fans were devastated when the BBC also canceled another major series.
The broadcaster confirmed that the shooting of the fifth series of Ghosts had ended for good on Friday, despite the nomination for a BAFTA for Best Scripted Comedy.
Ghosts, first aired in 2019, follows a money-strapped young couple who inherit a ramshackle mansion, only to be teeming with needy ghosts.
The team behind the hit show has decided it’s time to say goodbye to the residents of Button House and focus on new projects.
They said, ‘After five incredible years haunting the halls of Button House, we’ve decided the time is right to lay our beloved sitcom Ghosts to rest in peace.
“We have just finished filming our fifth and final series and we can’t wait to share it with you all later this year.
“We could never have imagined how well the show was received, or how much fun we had making it, and we would like to thank our wonderful cast and crew and everyone at BBC Comedy, BBC1 and Monumental Television for their tireless support.
“But most of all we want to thank everyone who is watching. Mathew, Martha, Simon, Jim, Laurence and Benx.”
