AN axed Channel 4 series has been saved from the TV graveyard and will be back on screens soon.

Beloved show Find It, Fix It, Flog It was canned by bosses at C4 earlier this year, leaving fans devastated.



It ran for six series before being culled from the schedule.

However, digital station UKTV have announced they've acquired the show's rights and it'll be back on air.

Two brand new series have been ordered and the show is now in production – with filming kicking off on Friday.

Its original hosts Henry Cole and Simon O'Brien will be back together as they rummage through garages, sheds and barns for precious items to restore.
