MTV’s wild reality series Geordie Shore has reportedly been given the chop after nearly 12 years on screen.

The popular reality series – which kicked off in May 2011 – generated notable names in the industry including the likes of I’m A Celebrity winner Vicky Pattison, Charlotte Crosby and Gaz Beadle.

A source shared: ‘MTV chiefs have decided the time has come to call it a day on Geordie Shore.

‘The already commissioned series, which is the show’s 24th, will go ahead with filming kicking off this weekend and the reunion will go ahead as planned later this summer.’

The Sun claims that bosses believed that the long-running programme hasn’t been the same in the last few years, and the current cast might be surprised by the news.

The original cast included Charlotte, Gaz, Vicky, Jay Gardner, Holly Hagan, James Tindale, Greg Lake and Sophie Kasaei.

When the programme first premiered it was met with huge backlash after viewers accused the show of glorifying binge-drinking.

Despite the controversy, the series proved to be a hit with fans and sparked several spin-offs including All Star Shore and the reunion shows

Some cast members including Vicky and Charlotte have secured major brand deals following their stint on the show.

Metro.co.uk has reached out to MTV for comment.
