The case is closed for Broadchurch. Recently, executive producer Chris Chibnall recently confirmed season three will be the last for the ITV series, Radio Times reports.
The UK drama, which airs on BBC America in the U.S., stars David Tennant and Olivia Colman as two detectives investigating the murder of a young boy in a small seaside town.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4, Chibnall said season three is it for Broadchurch. There will be no more seasons:
That is it and there will be no more after this one, absolutely. … It’s been an extraordinary journey with the show it has taken us all by surprise. … It’s hard to say goodbye. I’ve asked myself, ‘Why am I walking away from the two best actors in the country?’”
The third and final season of Broadchurch just finished airing on ITV. BBC America has not yet announced a U.S. premiere date for the season, but it is expected to air sometime later this year.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Broadchurch? Are you sad it’s coming to an end?
Absolutely one of the best things ever on TV. Editing, cinematography, acting, directing …superb! So incredibly nuanced!
Loving this show! Suspense, excellent writing, acting, plots. Hope you keep producing. USA
I love this show – the acting, the plot lines, the music and the scenery – please bring it back
It was absolutely amazing from the acting to the gorgeous scenery. Please please please make more series!!!!
Broadchurch, like all fine art, has to end sometime. I’ve loved the series and will look forward to more excellent programming from the U.K.

We were so sad to see the end of Broadchurch. An amazing show and storyline..would love to see a season 4.
Disappointing to know there will not be a 4th season. All good productions come to a quick end. Garbage productions continue
Really can not believe there will not be a season 4. This is an extraordinary show but we have been left hanging. EP should really rethink this.
Please bring back Broadchurch. Well written and well acted so naturally a show geared towards adult sensibility will be cancelled. The hour goes by so fast. Spinoff? Please reconsider.
This is an amazing program. So much put into the scripts. I hope you reconsider. If not please please work on spin offs!
Please continue this show; it’s some of the best acting I’ve ever seen and I find it riveting!
