While @Livingstone_UK said: “And now the #DocMartin Christmas Special. Portwenn looking so wintery, for the first time. Louisa Glasson looking so good. For the umpteenth time.
“I love Doc Martin. This is definitely the final episode. Providing brilliance since Autumn 2004.”
Clunes and writer Philippa Braithwaite said in a joint statement in 2020 how they had decided Doc Martin had run its course and now it was the right time to finish the show.
The statement said: “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 16 years we now feel that the time has come to say goodbye to Portwenn.”
Doc Martin is streaming on ITVX now
