It was confirmed by ITV two years ago that Doc Martin would be ending after series 10.
Explaining the reason for the decision, actor Clunes said on Loose Women: "All good things have to come to an end.
"And I’m sure there are lots of people who aren’t fans of the show who think it’s terribly repetitive anyway, but we’re at huge pains not to repeat ourselves.
"I just think we’ve sort of done everything. I mean, it would be so great to just sort of carry on, but I don’t think we can keep it as good."
Doc Martin season 10 continues every Wednesday at 9pm on ITV.
