From a certain legendary rock n' roll band to TV shows and even a pioneering high-street store, 2014 is seeing the end of many favourites cultural icons.

We're only a quarter of the way into the year and already it seems like many things are coming to an end. From certain celebrity un-couplings to legendary TV shows and even high-street retailers closing their doors, 2014 is going to be a pretty tumultuous year for all involved. Whilst we're all caught up in a whirlwind time of instant-access apps and streaming-services, it's easy to miss out on which things are dwindling or finishing their run, and although many of these things may seem minor at first, a lot of them have a pretty big place in our hearts, especially when you add in the rose-tinted nostalgia-specs. No doubt we'll do more of these lists throughout the year depending on what else comes to fruition, but for now check out our all-encompassing compilation of cultural things you might not even have realised have come to an end.

Propagator of LAD culture and bringer of boobs aplenty, Nuts finally closed their smut-filled doors this month, appearing to be a victim of over-indulging in their own appeal and provoking the likes of major supermarket chain The Co-Op to suggest they be sold in 'Modesty Bags' due to the increasing levels of flesh on their front covers. Alongside main competitor Zoo, Nuts provided many wannabe one-night-standers with their first look at the opposite sex in many revealing positions, yet in today's society where you have to make an effort NOT to see a scantily clad female thrusting her mammary glands in your direction in the name of a new product, the boundaries they had to push ended up collapsing all around them.
