HBO series Gentleman Jack has been axed after two seasons on air.
The period drama, which stars the likes of Suranne Jones as Anne Lister and Sophie Rundle as Ann Walker, only aired the end of the second season last month.
Set in the 1830s, Gentleman Jack was based on the real-life diaries of landowner Anne, which documented her relationships with women.

"When we began this journey more than five years ago, we knew the series' creator Sally Wainwright had a uniquely compelling vision.
"It's been tremendously gratifying to see how Anne Lister's journey has resonated with viewers."
The statement continued: "We are incredibly grateful to Sally, to the impeccable Suranne Jones and Sophie Rundle, and to the entire cast and crew for bringing Anne and Ann's story to life.
"We'd also like to thank our partners at BBC and Lookout Point for their collaboration on two remarkable seasons."

"We are tremendously proud of Gentleman Jack, a show which has made a huge cultural impact, and we are in discussions with Sally about what’s next," they explained.
The period drama is based on the real-life diaries of landowner Anne Lister.
She dressed in black, wore a top hat and was dubbed Gentleman Jack – Jack being slang in the 1800s for a gay woman.
In her diaries, Yorkshire businesswoman and adventurer Anne detailed her secret love affairs, her “wedding” to heiress Ann Walker and their life at Shibden Hall, near Halifax.
Actress Suranne previously said her “amazing” character has shown people it is “okay to explore gender in that way, to explore sexuality in that way and be courageous with it”.
