The hit BBC comedy was all about the trials and traumas of middle-class mums.
Viewers watched as they navigated the competitive and chaotic sides of being a parent– rather than any “front” a mum puts on in public.
However, Diane Morgan, who played single mother Liz in the show, has revealed Beeb execs have quietly axed the show.
Confirming the news to The Times, she added: “I hate to say it, because I still get women running up to me with prams in the street asking me when it’s coming back.”
Diane did hint that a spin-off is in the works, featuring Lucy Punch’s character Amanda.
She added: “It’ll live on through her. The ladies with the prams will be pleased, hopefully.”
When contacted, the BBC declined to comment on the revelation.
Fuming about the axe, one Motherland fan said: “F*** off has it been cancelled.”
A second wrote: “Is it true that #motherland has been cancelled? WTF BBC One.”
“Can’t we still get one off Xmas specials etc,” begged a third viewer.
The show was written by Sharon Horgan, Helen Linehan and Graham Linehan.
Although the children aren’t seen as often as parents Julia, Liz, Kevin, Amanda, Anne and Meg on the show, two cast members liked to avoid filming with them at all costs.
Actress Diane previously told The Mirror: “Me and Anna are always trying to work out ways we can avoid scenes with children.”
