ITV has ditched its drama series The Bletchley Circle after just two series.

The period drama starred Julie Graham, Anna Maxwell-Martin and Rachael Stirling; telling the story of a group of women who worked at the wartime code-breaking centre of the title.

Julie Graham has been retweeting messages of outrage from fans on her Twitter page, with many calling for ITV to reverse their decision and green-light a third season.

Ratings have been steady for the show, but there was noticeably less fanfare around the second run then there was with the first.

Many viewers have accused bosses of snubbing female-led ensemble shows in their decision to cull it.

Execs have not commented on the cancellation just yet.
