'Doc Martin' Will Officially End with Season 10

It's finally official: Popular comedy Doc Martin will conclude with its upcoming tenth season.

The series, which stars Martin Clunes as cantankerous, irascible GP Martin Ellingham, follows the story of his medical practice and interactions with his quirkily bizarre neighbors in the small seaside town of Portwenn. The series originally premiered in 2004 and has won legions of fans throughout the world with its biting humor, memorable characters and the on-again off-again romance between the grumpy doctor and local schoolteacher Louisa played by Caroline Catz. (By Season 9, the two have married and had a child.)

ITV and the production team behind the show have confirmed that the cantankerous doctor will officially hang up his stethoscope following Season 10, which will film in at some point in the spring of 2021. It's currently slated to premiere on ITV at some point late next year, with a U.S. debut to follow.
