The cast of Cuffs have revealed that BBC One’s new Brighton-based police drama has been axed after just one season.
Written by Julie Gearey (Prisoners’ Wives, Secret Diary Of A Call Girl), the “fast-paced contemporary cop show” began in October on BBC One and the eighth episode aired last night.

Cuffs starred Amanda Abbington as DS Jo Moffat alongside Ashley Walters (Top Boy), Peter Sullivan (The Borgias), Shaun Dooley (Exile), Paul Ready (Utopia), Eleanor Matsuura (Vexed) and Alex Carter (Hollyoaks) with Jacob Ifan.
Sherlock star Abbington tweeted after the final episode: “End of an era. And we are all gutted. Thanks to a wonderful cast, crew and fans. No series two. Sad day.”
