BBC Two's Something for the Weekend has reportedly been cancelled.



The Sunday morning magazine show will end at the conclusion of its current run, according to Broadcast.

Presented by Tim Lovejoy, Louise Redknapp and chef Simon Rimmer, the series has been made by Princess Productions since 2006.

"We can confirm that the current series of Something for the Weekend will be its last on BBC Two," said a Princess spokesman.

"The show continues to maintain the high ratings and popularity it has enjoyed since its launch in 2006. However we have been informed the decision not to renew is down to the proposed cuts to budgets and in original daytime commissioning."

The final Something for the Weekend will air on BBC Two in March. The show is expected to be replaced in the BBC schedules by repeats.
