Popular UK comedy series Brassic cancelled after seven seasons

The much-loved show will come to an end after six years.

The hit series, which stars Michelle Keegan and Joe Gilgun, follows a group of friends from the north of England who all take part in various criminal plots to earn money.

Sky have assured fans that the seventh season will wrap up the 'iconic story in unforgettable Brassic style', with the synopsis explaining: "This momentous return marks the last chapter for the unruly gang, who are promising to go out with a bang and with even more of the madness and mayhem that fans have cherished over the years.

"Fans of the franchise can expect one last whirlwind round of escapades, raucous adventure, and mischief from Vinnie (Joe Gilgun) and co.

"The stories of this boisterous group will come to an end after an incredible seven series, since the show launched with huge success in 2019 and became a fan favourite."

Danny Brocklehurst, the show's co-creator and writer, said: “When Joe Gilgun and I sat down to create Brassic, we couldn't have imagined, in our wildest dreams, that we would do seven series and gather such a loyal and loving fan base.

"It's been a complete joy to create this eccentric world, but all good things must come to an end, and we want to stop while we are still riding high. Maybe they can finally give us that BAFTA!”

While the show's sixth season has recently been released, the final series is currently filming, with Michelle Keegan, Joe Gilgun, and the whole cast returning.

The first four seasons of the show have recently been added to Netflix, massively increasing its popularity.
