"BBC One&amp;#039;s Italian detective drama Zen has been scrapped after just three episodes, it has been confirmed. The Guardian reports that the show - which stars movie actor Rufus Sewell - may be transmitted on a different network. Left Bank Pictures, the production team which also makes Wallander, are currently &amp;quot;in discussion&amp;quot; with other broadcasters. A spokesman said: &amp;quot;Left Bank Pictures are currently in discussion with other UK broadcasters about Zen.  &amp;quot;We were delighted that this fresh and stylish detective drama resonated with British viewers, television critics and fans of the novels alike and remain hugely proud of the three films.&amp;quot; However, while Zen averaged a respectable 4.7m across its January run, the programme shed viewers week-on-week.
