This Life is dead... long
live This Life!
In an email response, Mark Thompson, Controller of BBC 2
said "I'm naturally disappointed that This lIfe isn't coming
back. Like the rest of the programme's fans, I'm going to
miss it. But the series simply couldn't be furthered. That
is why after careful thought Tony Garnett decided to call
it a day."
Tony Garnett, executive producer of This Life and head of
World Productions (see here) later added: "At the end of
the last series the whole house was advertised for rent.
Although Mark Ravenhill did some excellent work towards a
possible third series, in the end I decided it was time to
move on. We are now developing other shows for the BBC. After
32 episodes of This Life, I want to do other things".
There is no news when the
2nd series will be out on video, however, as stated
elsewhere both series two is now being repeated on
UK Gold.

Stuart Payne runs a This
Life fanzine. Email him for more info at stuart.payne@virgin.net.
An online version of the fanzine seems unlikely to
put in an appearance here.
