Yahoo News Cradle to the Grave 'in limbo' due to Peter Kay
Last year it was announced that a second series of Danny Baker's Cradle to the Grave would be going into production, but now the show's creator has revealed the show is in 'limbo'.
Last month, comedian Peter Kay (who plays father Spud in the sitcom) announced that he was cancelling all of his "upcoming work projects" due to "unforeseen family circumstances".
Speaking to The Sun, Baker said: "The show is in limbo. I'll wait for Peter until 2019, but the actors all need to know.
"The BBC is being very good about it but a big player independent of the BBC and everyone else has stepped in and said, 'We think there's a way of doing your record shop or punk years'. I'd be happy if it was just that."
Although Kay has said that he is cancelling all of his projects, including his first live tour in eight years, the two planned Car Share specials are still going ahead.
One of the two specials will wrap the entire series up, while the other one will be unscripted and improvised.
When he announced his work cancellations, Kay said: "My sincerest apologies. This decision has not been taken lightly and I'm sure you'll understand my family must always come first.
"I've always endeavoured to protect my family's privacy from the media. I hope that the media and the public will continue to respect our privacy at this time. Once again, I'm very sorry."
