Channel 4 axes reboot of beloved reality show after ten years off screens

CHANNEL 4 has axed a planned reboot of a beloved reality show after ten years off screens.

The Sun previously revealed how the broadcaster was reviving Four Weddings after a decade off screens.

Casting for the series was already underway by producers.

However, in a shock move, Channel 4 has axed the planned reboot.

Deadline report production on the revival was due to begin in just weeks but staff have been told it will not be going ahead.

It's understood freelancers working on the show have been offered a two-week compensation package.

The Sun has reached out to Channel 4 for comment.

The programme saw brides and grooms brutally rank each other’s big day from the outfits, food and overall experience.

It was previously revealed how the now scrapped reboot would have had a slightly different format.

At the end of each episode the four couples reunited at an airport where they would learn who had won.

The winning couple would then board a plane and be whisked off on a romantic honeymoon.

But producers had decided to ditch that element and instead offer the winners £50,000 in cash to spend how they please.

In the event of a tie, it would've been split evenly.

Four Weddings originally aired on Sky Living from 2009 to 2013, with repeats being broadcast on other channels.
