Doc Martin is ending its time on iTV and Acorn TV. The drama series will end with its upcoming 10th season, according to ITV. Martin Clunes stars as a grumpy physician in the series which has been around for 16 years. Production on the 10th and final season will start in the spring, and the episodes will air later in 2021.
Clunes and producer Philippa Braithwaite said the following about ending Doc Martin:
“We have loved making nine series of Doc Martin. When we launched the series in 2004 we could never have imagined how much our loyal viewers would take to the grumpy Doc like they have. The series has avid fans both in the UK and throughout the world and we are thrilled that Doc Martin has topped the ratings every time.
However, after sixteen years we now feel that the time has come to say goodbye to Portwenn. We will be making the tenth and final series in 2021 and we are very much looking forward to returning to Cornwall to film it.”
Polly Hill, from iTV, also spoke about ending the series, which also streams on Acorn TV in the United States. She said the following:
“I just want to thank Martin and Philippa and everyone involved in Doc Martin, because it’s a brilliant, beautifully made series that has delighted audiences for many years. I am pleased that we are making series 10, and sad this will be the last, but respect their decision to bring it to a close.”
What do you think? Have you watched this dramatic series on iTV or Acorn TV? Will you be sad to see Doc Martin end?
I love Doc Martin. It calms me to watch it. I want it to go on and on and on. Very sad that it is coming to an end. California girl, here.
Love the series cannot wait to see season 10 however,sad that it will be the last.
Biggest fan loved the show sad to see it end. Please don’t go.
I will be watching season 10, and I will very much miss Doc Msrtin. Will he be in a new series. The cast of Doc Martin worked so well together.
I have never traveled out of America, but really enjoyed seeing aspects of Cornwal and the people.
Absolutely the Biggest Fan…
Please Don’t go!
It needs to end. Has been dragging on too long as to the strained relationship and his grumpiness. Storylines sometimes need to change but this has not…..which renders it altogether a bore to watch if not for the supporting other actors.
I sorry to see it go. But all things come to an end
This show is myself and my husband’s favorite and we’re very upset that it is ending. We will be married 25 years in 2022 and wanted to celebrate at the set of Doc Martin this is absolutely a tragedy. We have had many enjoyable nights together watching. I am very sad I’ll never get the chance to see Doc Martin up close and personal. We love all of you and wish you all the best in future endeavors. Will be a fan forever!
Yes am sad. I truly wanted to see him and Louis be happy in their marriage and baby.
They both had issues to work on.
Why is it ending when clearly there is a love and demand for the show? I’m confused
The show is wonderful and we would like to see it continue beyond Season 10!
I really like the show and feel sad that it will end. I look forward to the 10th season and hope to see the actors in other shows. I will miss seeing all of them.
I’m SO sad that Doc Martin will be ending! Have really loved the show. My one consolation is I’ll have it all on DVD.
