Shameless had a devoted legion of fans when it first debuted on Channel 4 in 2003 and quickly became a household name in British comedy.
The critically-acclaimed show, which starred David Threlfall as Mancunian patriarch Frank Gallagher, came to an end in 2013 after running for 11 seasons.
For stars, including James McAvoy, Anne-Marie Duff and Maxine Peake, it launched their careers.
