Suranne Jones has issued a lengthy statement to her "devastated" fans after her HBO series Gentleman Jack was axed after two seasons on air.
It was announced on Friday that the period drama, which stars the likes of Doctor Foster’s Suranne as Anne Lister and Sophie Rundle as Ann Walker, would not continue for a third season.
Set in the 1830s, Gentleman Jack was based on the real-life diaries of landowner, pioneer and “gender-nonconforming entrepreneur”, Anne, which documented her relationships with women.
