Our Girl has apparently been axed after deals to replace Michelle Keegan with Jacqueline Jossa ‘fell through’.
The former EastEnders actress was in line to be the new star of the hit show but the BBC show has been axed.
The BBC formally announced on Tuesday that the show has ended after four series.
‘Real reason’ Our Girl axed
A source has said that the BBC was forced to cancel Our Girl and Jacqueline Jossa as its new lead due to coronavirus.
Typically filmed at offshore locations, filming and lockdown restrictions would have made it near impossible to continue, the source claims.

Speaking to The Sun, the source said: “Jacqueline knew it was a massive role for her but after the initial call it all went quiet and nothing more was said.
“With the pandemic and restrictions on filming, they felt it was best to just pull the plug for the moment.
