Home Fires has received critical acclaim, holding a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Despite this, ITV did not commission a third season. " Season two ended on a cliffhanger with a fighter plane crashing into the village.
The series is based on Julie Summers' nonfiction book Jambusters and features a predominantly female cast including Francesca Annis, Samantha Bond, Claire Rushbrook, Fenella Woolgar, and Leanne Best.
We are incredibly proud of what Home Fires has achieved, but the ITV commissioning team continues to refresh the channel's drama portfolio, hence the decision not to commission a further new series.
