The Completely Made-Up Adventures Of Dick Turpin was Apple TV+'s high jinks vehicle for the very best of British comedy talent, but there's nothing whimsical about the series coming to a clattering halt this week.

Apple has reportedly ditched the second season of The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin for a very odd reason.

The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin is not Apple TV+’s first cancellation, but news of the streamer’s cancelled shows doesn’t come with anything like the regularity of Netflix’s culling sprees. That’s in part because Apple TV+ commissions far fewer shows in the first place.
