- ITV's drama series Joan, which depicted the life of real-life jewel thief Joan Hannington, has been cancelled after its first season.
- The cancellation is attributed to the unavailability of the show's star-studded cast for filming further episodes.
- The six-part series, starring Sophie Turner as Hannington, aired last autumn and attracted over four million viewers per episode.
- Joan Hannington was Britain's most notorious diamond thief, responsible for stealing millions of pounds worth of jewels over nearly two decades.
- Sophie Turner, the lead actress, has several upcoming projects, including playing Lara Croft in Amazon's Tomb Raider series and roles in Cloud One and The Dreadful.
