|  |  |  | | | | | Life, Doctor Who & Combom | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today it was revealed that the behind-the-scenes series linked, has been axed!
The reason behind it is, apparently, because of funding has been cut by up to 20% for programming so BBC controller Zai Bennett has decided to cut it. This is due to it's "Delivering Quality first" initiative..
This is mainly due to Bennett liking to deliver original material in it's BBC Three region.
Speaking last month at the MediaGuardian Edinburgh International Television Festival, Bennett said: "It's about focusing my budget on 9pm and 10.30pm; those are the time slots that count. Budgets are tight, so we have to be sensible with the money we have."
A spokeswoman for the BBC said: "The Doctor Who spin-off series, Doctor Who Confidential, has been a great show for BBC3 over the years, but our priority now is to build on original British commissions, unique to the channel."
