BBC Four has announced that Puppy Love will not return for a second season.
In a statement issued this afternoon (April 24), the channel confirmed that the sitcom - created by Getting On's Joanna Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine - had been cancelled.
"Puppy Love was a great series but won't be coming back to BBC Four as we look to bring new comedy shows through," a representative of the BBC told TVWise.
"Huge thanks to the wonderfully talented Joanna Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine and all involved in the making of the show."

A gritty and engaging tale of deceit, violence and desperation, Nobody Can Cool is anchored by a breakout performance by Nick Principe (best known from his work in the Laid to Rest series, Madison County and...

London 5:02pm 22nd April 2011: Cars fly on the end of balloons, a stream train storms through the Gherkin. Charles Dickens (Simon Callow) on the news, interviewed by BBC journalists Bill Turnbull and Sian Williams, telling them of the ghosts, past, present and future all at the same time. Children are chased by pterodactyls. Meredith Kieira, speaks of Emperor Churchill (Ian McNeice). There's a Roman centurion on guard outside the Palace, but it's not Rory (Arthur Darvill). Churchill is being attended by Mahlokeh (the Silurian doctor from 5.8 The Hungry Earth and 5.9 Cold Blood) and he asks why the time is always 5:02 and the date is also stuck. He summons the Soothsayer held in the Tower. Enter the Doctor (Matt Smith) all beard and chains.

All of us knew that the Doctor (Matt Smith) wasn’t going to really die at Lake Silencio. I mean, not really die. How could he? If nothing else, he has a Christmas special to be in.
But even knowing what we knew, we still looked forward to seeing how the Doctor dodged death, and now that I’ve seen that, and know that I know, I have to say that I’m quite pleased. It didn’t feel forced. It made sense, and the show did exactly what it should do: answered some questions while asking more, including one very vital, important Question, and it will be really interesting to see how that gets resolved.
Our story begins in an alternate timeline; one where Winston Churchill (Ian McNeice) is the Holy Roman Emperor, and has a Silurian physician. Where pterodactyls are pests in parks, and Charles Dickens does talk show appearances.

Doctor Who: Season 6 – Episode 13 (Season Finale)
Written by: Steven Moffat
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars
Warning – Spoilers
Head writer Steven Moffat has been in charge of the show now for two seasons and a lot is resting on the success of this episode. Some fans were disappointed after last seasons finale, where a lot of questions were left unanswered to make way for a two season long story arc rather than one. Well the time has come, now there are two seasons worth of questions that need answering and a hell of a lot of anticipation. Does this episode pull it off?
Yes and no. There are a lot of similarities to be found within this episode and last seasons finale The Big Bang. In our first scene we are introduced to a world that is obviously not our own (a world with no stars and a world where all...

Potential Minor Spoilers Ahead
A BBC press release says that a fourteen-episode seventh season has now been confirmed for "Doctor Who" with Matt Smith to reprise the role of The Doctor for the entire run. Whether Smith will hang around for an eighth season in 2013 - the franchise's 50th Anniversary - is unknown.
The deal cements in place production on this year's Christmas special and a standard 13-episode season next year, but does not discuss whether things will be split (like this year) or go back to a 13-week run in either the Spring or Fall. A lot will likely depend on the ratings of the second half of season six.
Despite Smith's return, it's now looking highly likely that neither Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) or Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill) will be joining him. The longest regular run for a companion since the show's return in 2005 has been two seasons,...
