Annika will not be returning to UK television screens. According to Radio Times, the series has been canceled after two seasons on UKTV and the BBC. The series aired on PBS in the US. This means the series will end on a cliffhanger.
When asked about the series, a spokesperson for UKTV said, “We are incredibly proud of the success of Annika on U&Alibi, but there are no current plans for a third series.”
Nicola Walker, Katie Leung, Jamie Sives, Ukweli Roach, and Kate Dickie star in the series, which follows Annika and her team as they investigate crimes as a part of the fictional Glasgow-based Marine Homicide Unit.
What do you think? Did you watch Annika? Were you hoping for a third season?
A refreshingly witty crime based drama with excellent cast and believable, engaging storylines. Flippin’ stupid not to renew it. sto
Please bring Annika back! I love the show. I’m very upset it has been cancelled. I just can’t believe it wasn’t a hit. I watched every episode and I wanted to see more!
O no. Is my favourite series since Luther and Sherlock. Why?
YES, PLEASE RETURN
Loved this show- bitterly disappointed
I am deeply disappointed! I really enjoyed the characters and story lines. Nicola brings an amazing character to life and executes the “asides “ beautifully. It adds so much to a show that already has a tremendous appeal.
I truly hope there is a possibility of reversing this decision. I really thought Annika would continue for years.
bitterly disappointed; it is a riveting and refreshingly different drama
Hi, we loved this series, intelligent, humorous, good plots, interesting characters, beautiful Scotland, refreshing and a family friendly programme. Please do the 3rd series.
We very much enjoyed Annika, a different take on a detective series with great dry humour & acting. Would love to see a 3rd series. Hopefully someone will rethink
Enjoyed Annika hugely and was very much looking forward to a third series so am very sad at the news it will not be happening
Noooooooooo. How could they do this to Annika?
Awfully disappointing news. This was one of the better and more entertaining detective series on PBS from the UK.
Another detective series called “Zen”starring Rufus Sewell only had one season (2011) and was equally outstanding and entertaining. Don’t know how these decisions arrived at.
I’m mad!!!
