'In the Flesh' — Dominic Mitchell’s “zombie-rehabilitation” drama series starring Luke Newberry, has been picked up for a second season by BBC 3.

The BBC will not be making a second series of its critically acclaimed supernatural science-fiction drama, despite its recent success in America and being nominated for Best Drama at the British Academy of Film and Television Awards.

The BBC has caused confusion after contradicting claims from one of its producers that there is an unaired edition of its recently cancelled documentary series Doctor Who Confidential.

Steven Moffat, the executive producer and head writer of Doctor Who, has criticised the BBC for cancelling the documentary series that has accompanied the science-fiction drama since its return to TV screens in 2005.

Thousands of people have signed an online petition to save a BBC Three documentary series that accompanies the Corporation’s flagship science-fiction drama.
