"The Killing creator Soren Sveistrup has ruled out the possibility of a fourth series. The Danish crime drama&amp;#039;s third and final run will premiere in the UK on BBC Four this Saturday (November 17).  &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve had great fun and worked very hard, but we agreed from the start that it wasn&amp;#039;t going to be a neverending story,&amp;quot; Sveistrup said at a recent screening for the final episodes. &amp;quot;I just think we are very proud of what we did and these stories, they speak for themselves. And I&amp;#039;d hate it to just be another show - just another mass-produced show - ongoing and not really reflecting anything.&amp;quot; Sveistrup admitted that it would be possible to produce more episodes of The Killing - which stars Sofie Grabol as detective Sarah Lund - but voiced concerns that the show could dip in quality if allowed to continue. &amp;quot;I think we could make 1,000 episodes of Sarah Lund - I think we could do that, but they wouldn&amp;#039;t be good ones,&amp;quot; he suggested. &amp;quot;The problem with [other] television - it isn&amp;#039;t about quality. It&amp;#039;s about... I don&amp;#039;t know what it is. Maybe only entertainment.&amp;quot; The Killing&amp;#039;s final series launches with a double-bill on BBC Four at 9pm on Saturday. &amp;gt; &amp;#039;The Killing&amp;#039; series three is &amp;#039;darker and heavier&amp;#039; &amp;gt; Duchess of Cornwall visits &amp;#039;The Killing&amp;#039; set - pictures Watch a trailer for the final series of The Killing below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
