Stephen K Amos Show dropped by BBC

The Stephen K Amos Show has been dropped by BBC Two. The series, which aired last year, combined stand-up comedy, characters and celebrity guests.

A spokesperson for the BBC has now confirmed that the programme will not be returning, Chortle reports.

However, the representative added that the broadcaster is planning to work with Amos on new formats.

"Stephen's show won't be coming back to BBC Two as there is so much great comedy on the channel, we just can't bring everything back," the spokesperson said. "But we are working with Stephen on other projects and think he's a big talent."

In 2009, Amos suggested that there is not enough diversity among comics on television.
