Sky comedy Yonderland to end after three series
"The time has come to hang up our Elders’ robes", say the show's writers
Yonderland, Sky’s fantasy sitcom starring Stephen Fry and Mathew Baynton, is ending after three series.
In an announcement posted by Yonderland co-creator and actor Laurence Rickard, the show’s writers said the portal to the wacky fantasy land had closed for the last time.
It reads: “After three series, and a ridiculous amount of fun, the time has come to hang up our Elders’ robes. With no cliffhangers left dangling, and a Christmas Special as the cherry on top of our Yonderland cake, the decision has been made to close the portal for good.”
