The BBC have decided to axe talent show All That Glitters, meaning there will not be a third season.
The show, which only launched in 2021, was fronted by 39-year-old comedian Katherine Ryan - and featured up-and-coming jewellers competing to prove themselves as the industry's next big name.
Contestants were challenged by having to design and craft jewellery to specific briefs throughout each episode, from mass market pieces to bespoke items as requested by clients.

The Mirror reports that the first series of the show averaged 2.3 million viewers across its six episodes, later returning for a second season in 2022. And despite decent viewership figures, it was confirmed that the show will not continue for a third series.
The last episode of the show aired in October last year, in a heated season finale which was filmed in a specially built workshop in Birmingham's historic Jewellery Quarter. In that edition, finalists were asked to complete a number of assignments, including creating a unique necklace for Strictly Come Dancing's Shirley Ballas.
Katherine was 'delighted' to return to screens last year, saying at the time: "The first series was a total joy to be a part of."
Previously talking about the BBC show, she added: "Jewellery making is so visual and satisfying to watch, but it's the jewellers themselves that make the show unmissable," going on: "They're all so warm and different, and they all have uniquely compelling personalities and stories that they bring into their craft."
Jewellery designers Shaun Leane and Solange Azagury-Partridge featured as judges across the first season, with Shaun teaming up with new judge Dinny Hall for the second. Dinny said: "A successful jewellery designer needs to imagine then execute their ideas, hone their craftsmanship abilities as well as design ethos, and lastly know their market."
The first and second series of All That Glitters are available to watch on the BBC iPlayer.
