We won't be seeing any more of the dog groomers
Sheridan Smith's Pooch Perfect has been cancelled after one series, it has been confirmed.
The animal-based competition show, which was hosted by actress Smith alongside a dog named Stanley, aired earlier this year and saw experienced dog groomers compete to impress judges Verity Hardcastle and Colin Taylor with their skills and win the title of the UK's Top Dog Stylist.
Smith, who has six dogs of her own at home, described landing the gig as "heaven" and called it "literally my dream job!" but the show will not be returning to our screens following its first series, which saw groomer Kelly Davis named as the winner.
The BBC told Digital Spy: "Pooch Perfect brought plenty of light relief to viewers during lockdown and whilst the show won't be returning for another series, we'd like to thank Sheridan, the judges, animal experts, groomers and pet owners plus the entire team at Beyond Productions for bringing such joy to our screens at a time when we needed it most."
