Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a> in an exclusive interview, Morgan said that she was the one to decide that the drama should end with season 3.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was always the plan and in fact I don\u2019t think I\u2019m saying anything out of turn here, the BBC would have loved us to have gone on really,\u201d she said. \u201cBut I always conceived it as three.\u201d<\/p> Morgan continued: \u201cThe Split was meant to be about the legacy of the split, and season 1 is really Hannah reflecting on her childhood and the legacy of her parents\u2019 divorce, and then two was about the affair. And then three is really about Hannah facing her own divorce. So I\u2019d always considered it as three.\u201d<\/p>\n She added that if she were to continue with The Split, it would \u201cbecome a different show\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cI love writing for those characters and I\u2019m sure I will kick myself again and again. But I also feel like how many times can you bring people back together and split them up and bring them back together.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd the world of divorce law is so intriguing and fascinating. And that family is so amazing. I love those characters. But I just wanted to go and reinvent again somewhere else. But I always knew that I wanted to build to this because at the heart of the show is this idea that not all divorces are failure, just some marriages are finite.\u201d<\/p>\n While the drama reached a conclusion with Hannah and Nathan (Stephen Mangan) signing their divorce papers, Mangan has said that he would \u201cabsolutely\u201d return for a spin-off<\/a>.<\/p>\n Additional reporting by Abby Robinson.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n The Split is available to stream on BBC iPlayer<\/a>\u00a0now.
