Looks like we might not be getting a second series. ITV to axe crime drama Identity after one series – due to poor ratings.

ITV is set to axe crime drama Identity after just one series - because of disappointing ratings.

The six-part series starred Keeley Hawes, 34, and Aiden Gillen, 42, as cops investigating villains who take on other people's identities.

It got a healthy 5.6million viewers and a 24 per cent audience share for its launch last month, but fell to 3.4million and 14 per cent by the final episode.

An insider said: "Executives weren't happy with the ratings and the fact they got worse as the show went on wasn't a good omen."

But an ITV spokesman insisted no decision has yet been reached.

^^Please don't let the above take place, Identity is a brilliant show with amazing storylines and actors.
