BBC

The BBC has denied that Spooks and Waking The Dead are facing the axe.

Earlier today, reports surfaced which suggested that both shows were likely to return for only one more series before being dropped.

However, a BBC spokesperson told Digital Spy that the reports are completely false.

"They are not facing the chop or being cancelled. We have no plans to axe either show as they remain hugely popular with our audiences."

The spokesperson also confirmed that Spooks will return for a new series this Autumn, and Waking The Dead will be back in 2011.
