Michelle Keegan has addressed rumours that Brassic has been axed after seven seasons.
The former Coronation Street star appears alongside Joe Gilgun in the comedy, which follows a group of petty criminals in their fictional hometown of Hawley.
The Erin Croft actor was pictured earlier this year filming scenes for the upcoming series, which has been revealed to be the last.
Fans were quick to speculate why the beloved show was coming to a close, with many believing it had been axed by producers.

Sharing a video of herself alongside her castmates on her Instagram Stories, Michelle, who is expecting her first child with husband Mark Wright, wrote: "And just for the record… Brassic has not been 'AXED' or 'cancelled'.
"It’s come to a natural end after 6 fantastic seasons, and we’re currently in the middle of making the 7th and final season.
"Sending love to all the Brassic fans out there."
After announcing the news Brassic was coming to an end, a Sky spokesperson said: "Since Brassic arrived on our screens in 2019, it has become Sky's most successful comedy ever.
"Fans very quickly became attached to this dynamic group of friends, as they found unconventional ways to win at life in northern suburbia.
"We would like to thank Joe Gilgun, Danny Brocklehurst and the whole cast and crew – past and present – for bringing us all a truly iconic series, which we've loved for its special mix of hilarity and heart."

Writer and co-creator Daniel Brocklehurst added: "When Joe Gilgun and I sat down to create Brassic, we couldn't have imagined, in our wildest dreams, that we would do seven series and gather such a loyal and loving fan base.
"It's been a complete joy to create this eccentric world, but all good things must come to an end, and we want to stop while we are still riding high. Maybe they can finally give us that BAFTA!"
Both Michelle and Joe are set to return for the final season alongside Ryan Sampson, Aaron Heffernan, Joanna Higson, Parth Thakerar, and Steve Evets.
Brassic airs on Sky Max and NOW, and seasons 1-4 are now on Netflix.
