heat Towers is officially in mourning today as news reaches us that the TV series Prison Break has been axed from US TV screens.

After four seasons following the adventures of Wentworth Miller and his misfit band of convicts, Fox Entertainment has pulled the plug as the show is “just played out”.

Fox Entertainment president Kevin Reilly tells the Hollywood Reporter, "The show is just played out. Creatively, everybody feels enough stories have been told.

"We want to finish strong and not just gimp out next season. They have a cool ending."

What will life be like without Wenty on our TV screens? We shudder to think and hope he’s got plenty of new projects lined up, especially topless calendar shoots…
