But her BBC show, Ten Pound Poms will not be returning for a third series. But the BBC confirmed this week that Ten Pound Poms has come to an abrupt end. ‌Michelle Keegan, 38, had previously spoken of her willingness to return, though she admitted family commitments could have delayed her involvement. The cancellation leaves fans with just two seasons to revisit on BBC iPlayer, where the drama remains available.
