Cutting It Chopped By Beeb

[Luna]

HAIRDRESSING drama Cutting It has been axed by the BBC.

Shocked cast members had hoped a fifth series would start filming next month.

But Jane Tranter, head of BBC drama commissioning, said: "Cutting It is not coming back again."

Falling ratings and the departures of stars such as Sarah Parish, who played Allie Henshall, led to a review of its future.

Ms Tranter added: "With Allie gone, that was it really. We were either going to have to introduce a newish cast or stretch credibility with where we were taking the characters."

Cutting It, which also starred Amanda Holden, was a huge success for the BBC. Filmed in Manch- ester, it featured storylines of kidnapping, infidelity and arson.

I cant believe that they are going to axe it.Although I thought that this last series was not as good

[RealityGap]

It is good that they are stopping it rather than carrying it on and ruining it - with Allie not there it would have been weird

[Bryan]

the end of the Allie show, im not surprised as without Allie the show cant exist! the problem with cutting it was heavily revolved around 4 characters mainly, allie, mia, gavin, flinn, so when they left one by one it wouldnt be the same show with other characters

a sad loss but hey nothing lasts forever...except eastenders!!!

[Carrie Bradshaw]

I love Cutting It but I guess it is the right time to finish. It will never be as good without the 4 main characters.

[Chloe-Elise]

Awww its a shame but it wouldn't have been the same without Allie and Gavin.

[Kylie]

bit of a foregone conclusion really - it really wasnt so good without allie and gavin although i was intrigued to find out more about darcy and euge

[Debs]

i used to love cutting it but i didnt watch the last series as i had got a bit boreed of it. All the best characters have left so it makes sense to end it now

[tasha_cfc]

Shame it's not coming back on but it probably wouldnt have been as good anyway without the main characters!!

[Bad Wolf]

i'm so gutted- they could have done so much with darcey in charge!!!!

booo
