Amy Childs' reality TV show has been axed after just one series, according to reports.

The show - launched after Amy left ITV2 hit The Only Way Is Essex - is being given the chop after viewing figures fell to just 300,000, the Daily Mirror said.

A source was quoted as saying that not enough happened in the Channel 5 show, It's All About Amy, which ends on Thursday night.

Viewers have seen the former beautician attend the launch of Peter Andre's coffee shop and have a lesson in IT.

"The fly-on-the-wall format didn't really work because there wasn't a lot going on," the source was quoted as saying.

"TOWIE at least has a few different cast members, but watching Amy drive to TV studios and train her dogs was just tedious."

A Channel 5 spokesperson was quoted as saying: "The show was commissioned as an eight-part series looking at Amy Childs' life in the period immediately after her successful stint in the Big Brother house.

"We are currently talking to Amy about other opportunities on the channel."

Bafta-winning show TOWIE was watched by an average of 1.55 million.

SLIDESHOW: Maybe Amy should rejoin this lot?

Loading Slideshow...
  • Kirk Norcross

    Kirk's got the rich dad, the swanky sports car and the club... no wonder he's attracting such classy ladies.

  • Lauren Pope

    Popey possesses possibly the poutiest of all pouts in the land of TOWIE and she's not afraid to use them.

  • Gemma Collins

    TOWIE's token larger lady brings endless laughs. Not one to sweep things under the rug or avoid the awkward questions, Gemma once asked Greek twins Dino and Georgie if they look at each others penises.

  • Nanny Pat

    Everyone wants a nan like nanny Pat and everyone wants a bit of her sausage plait.

  • Harry Derbidge

    "Shuuuuuurp!" Harry not only has one of the best catchphrases on the show, he's also on the same level as the girls when it comes to tans, bleached hair and posing.

  • Mark Wright and James Argent

    Mark and Arg, Arg and Mark, The troublesome duo have one of the best bromances reality TV has ever seen - Mark even sat through Arg's colonic irrigation!

  • Mark Wright

    Mark's been branded just about every name going when it comes to his alleged philandering, but that hasn't stopped the TOWIE girls going near him. Anyone would think he's the only man in Essex.

  • Lydia Bright

    Lydia gets credit for having the most tasteful dress sense on the show, think more Chanel and less Agent Provocateur. She's also a hero for putting up with Arg and Mark's bromance. Not one to shy away from a fight, she's pretty good at putting Arg in his place.

  • TOWIE girls glammed up

    See, they <em>can</em> look demure. You've just got to give them a Bafta.

  • Sam Faiers and Amy Childs

    Amy may have left the show for "bigger and better" things, but in our mind she'll always be a TOWIE girl.

  • Joey Essex and Sam Faiers

    Joey Essex, you really can't get more Essex than him. He's also the closest thing to a male Barbie on television at the moment. Here's a rare picture of the "reem" ladies man wearing trousers and not short shorts. We think it's time he faced up to the fact that they're NEVER going to catch on.

  • Lauren Goodger

    It feels like we've seen Lauren cry more times than she's laughed on TOWIE (that will be the ex-boyfriend's fault of course), but here she is doing what she does best - looking pretty in a beautician's.

  • Jessica Wright and Maria Fowler

    Mark's sister Jessica and bubbly Maria know how to party (when the cameras are around).

  • Chloe Sims

    Plastic fantastic, Chloe's not ashamed to admit all the work she has had done to look <em>so</em> good. Her latest mission involves <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2011/10/25/towie-star-chloe-sims-bum-implants_n_1029986.html" target="_hplink">getting bum implants to improve her "flat screen" derrière. </a>

Maybe the Towie thing is coming to an end after all? I have tried to watch it but it goes in the same bin as Strictly, X-pop-factor-idol, Peter andre show and anything with 'celebrity' in the title. Just not my cup of tea and I really do not know what people see in the shows. I'm all for personal choice, watch what you like good people, but maybe this teaches that the SHOW might be popular (eg 'chelsea' or 'Towie') but we really are not interested in the actors other than in the shows...

Celebrity= the opposite of celibacy. People who for no apparent reason are propelled in the public eye, they tend to marry young and often stay married until someone with more celebrity status or money comes along.

Celibacy= the opposite of celebrity.

Cesspit = a celebrities home.

Celebrate= something celebrities think only they are entitled too do.

Cells=many Celebrities have none.

Celebrititis=A condition that usually effects women who become possessed by the exposure of others; often travelling many miles and standing in the rain to watch celebrities exit a chauffeured limousine and walk on a red floor into a building. They seem unconcerned that they are not invited even though quite often they are paying for the 'event'.

10+2= a sum that's too difficult for most celebrities.
10+1= a sum that's too hard for most suffering from celebrititis.
