CHANNEL 4 appears to have quietly shelved one of its beloved competition shows after three series on screens.
The broadcaster has reportedly made the decision to not bring the show back for a fourth go-around despite its loyal fan-base.
Handmade: Britain's Best Woodworker first arrived on Channel 4 screens in 2021 but now won't be returning for any further editions according to TVZone.
Despite no plans to create a fourth series, it has been stated that the door has been left open for a potential revival of the show in the future.
The show was hosted by former Bake Off alum Mel Giedroyc as ten of the UK's best woodworkers headed to the workshop in order to see if they had what it took to be crowned the overall champion.

Each week, the contestants had to create some out-of-this-world builds in order to match an exact brief.
A series of expert judges then take their time to critique what the builders come up with as they are evaluated on their varying techniques and skills.
Ahead of joining the programme, host Mel admitted she was delighted to front a show that she felt could really connect with the vast majority of everyday people.
Speaking at the time, the TV host said: "The woodworkers are extraordinary and surprised us constantly.
"The reason I was so delighted to be asked to do this job, I think during the lockdowns, people turned to crafts and gardening and making things and had to slow down in a way we haven’t really collectively before, and this show captures that.
"Watching people work with wood, which is natural and earthy will speak to people, I hope anyway.
"There’s something very addictive about the method and the simplicity of it, it’s amazing. I was in awe of the contestants, they are proper artists."
Speaking of how the show's filming routine was brutal in comparison to Bake Off, the star recalled: "The guys are phenomenal. They had no time between episodes, which is so unusual.
"On Bake Off, we’d film at the weekends then the bakers would have the week to practice and relax. This was like a marathon and the woodworkers have got such grit.

"They’re a brilliant bunch of people and enjoyed all being together because it is usually such a solitary activity, so for them to meet others who have the same passion was wonderful."
