SPENT: MICHELLE DE SWARTE'S BBC COMEDY AXED AFTER ONE SERIES

The BBC have pulled the plug on comedy Spent after one series, The Sun newspaper has revealed.

In Spent, Michelle de Swarte stars as Mia, a former catwalk model who is on the run, mainly from herself. Long term it’s a story of personal renewal but for now, the stark reality is that her career is over, she’s flat broke and she’s homeless.

This is a woman who despite her humble beginnings has become accustomed, possibly even addicted, to the finer things in life.

Unfortunately, those lifestyle choices don’t carry much currency when you’re pushing 40 and permanently sofa surfing. She may have a high falutin’ attitude and a world class skincare regime but Mia’s now living on the breadline.

Spent is available now on BBC iPlayer.
