It was confirmed last month that the fourth season of the controversial suicide drama would bring the story to its conclusion.

Showrunner Brian Yorkey has now shed light on why the decision has been taken to end the series after its fourth outing.

He told : "Somewhere in the midst of making season two, when it became clear that we might have the chance to make more seasons of this, I pretty quickly got to a place where it felt like a four-season story.

"I’m always a little bit suspicious of high school shows that go beyond four seasons because high school is four years long.

"It felt like bringing these characters to their graduation and to scattering to their next things felt like the logical ending point."

Despite the success of the series - and the controversy that has often come with it - Brian has stuck to his guns and kept the show as a four-season offering.

He continued: "So for a long time, the idea has been, should we be so lucky to have the opportunity, we would do four seasons of this.

";So certainly going into breaking story for season four, we knew it was the end."

Season four of 13 Reasons Why arrives on Netflix this month, with seasons 1-3 available to stream now.
