BBC comedy Ladhood has come to an end with its hilarious third season, which has just become available to watch.
The series has been a hit for the broadcaster, garnering critical acclaim with its frank and well-observed look at adolescence.
Creator and star Liam Williams confirmed that the show would end with its third season back in July, posting a message on Twitter to say that he had “simply run out of memories”.
Update for my followers: Ladhood series 3 will broadcast ‘end of summer’. It’s likely to be, I am in many ways sad to say, the final series, as I have simply run out of memories. Thanks to everyone who’s watched or worked on the show. I am beyond grateful.https://t.co/ZSoV3rHtvJ
