As fans of In the Flesh know, BBC Three cancelled the supernatural TV series after two seasons due to budget cuts. (The show aired on BBC America here in the United States.)
Series creator Dominic Mitchell has expressed interest and hope in reviving In the Flesh in some form. Unfortunately, he hasn’t had much luck so far and recently tweeted that making that happen takes “financing and distribution. That takes time & investment.”
He recently took to Twitter to share some clues about what might have been for the series. He assured fans “Not to worry. These are just teasers. I won’t ruin any endings by tweeting about it. Promise.”
Thinking at the moment Roarton council in all their wisdom has decided segregation is the best answer to keeping the peace… #InTheFlesh

…Roarton is divided into two parts: West and East. Undead live in the east and the living live in the west…#InTheFlesh

…Kier & Simon live together in the East. Simon is still very paranoid about his "guy" being hurt by the other ULA followers…#InTheFlesh

When asked if he’d consider wrapping up the story in comic book/graphic novel form, Mitchell said, “I’d never rule out any of those opinions. However the cast & crew were so important to the success of In the Flesh.
What do you think? Would you like to see In the Flesh return for a third season or a movie at some point? Would you be satisfied with a continuation in graphic novel form?
Pleeeese let’s have season 3, why on earth would you leave it like that ?? Hooked from the off. Sooooo good 10/10
Please bring a session 3 not normally my thing but this had me glued to the screen from the get go!!
Bring in back
Bring back for a third season! He’s right the cast is EVERYTHING!! A movie sounds good too but SAME CAST!!! PLEASEEEEEEE
Just recently binged both seasons and Hulu. The human connection and thought process of everything is so beautifully done. I NEED A SEASON 3!! So many character bridges are unfinished it’s so unfair. I can’t believe it took me so long do discover such an amazing show. Emotionally moving and keep you wanting more.
Be careful what you wish for!
As much as the incomplete requires fulfillment or some form of closure, there is always the likelihood that a third series would disappoint.
It’s 2021 now, and the cast are too old and elsewhere to commit to such a venture – it’s similar to Freddie trying to get back with his ‘wife’ Haley… time moves on.
Some form of comfort can be had in imagining what could have been.
Perhaps a book format may be the best solution to this quandary – write your own continuation of this saga!
Yes! I watched the 2 seasons and want a wrap up! <3 the series!
Please bring back for season 3, too many unanswered question.
Please bring back for season 3! Unanswered questions linger!Why did those people dig up Amy? This series was just getting really great! I love this whole concept of the dead coming back to life,real life with beating hearts and flowing blood!
I hold out hope for a proper finale to the series. I’m one of the old geezer fans (50) and just re-watched it on DVD. So powerful. I am surprised no one has come forward from the BBC wanting to fund a proper ending. Here’s hoping from Canada.
Please do a third series, love the episodes so far. But it needs at least another series to round things off.
Please for the love of God come out with a season three it’s been years now and I am dying to see what happens you guys had an excellent show that drew everyone in continue with that fire
Please please bring back In The Flesh! Season 2 ended on such a cliff hanger….need to know more!
I would love to see another season. I just finished season 2 and can’t wait to find out more!
Please bring Season 3 back. I just finished Season 2. It was Great!
Yes please make a season 3 it’s not fair to leave it like that I loved it
