Fleabag, the hit BBC series created by and starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge, will not have a third series, although fans obsessing over what will happen between the lead character and a priest played by Andrew Scott have been promised a “beautiful, perfect ending” to the show. Monday’s episode will conclude the show’s run after just two series of six episodes each, with the staff and crew choosing to bow out on a high rather than extend the programme’s run further. “There will not be a third series,” says Sian Clifford, who plays Claire, the sister of Waller-Bridge’s anonymous lead character. Fleabag later became a hit in the United States after it was shown on Amazon’s Prime Video streaming service, making Waller-Bridge a major star. Phoebe Waller-Bridge in Fleabag.
