Doc Martin season 10 will likely begin airing in autumn 2022<\/strong>, followed by a Christmas special.<\/p>\n The season began shooting on location in Cornwall in 2021, according to a statement made by Martin Clunes and producer Philippa Braithwaite.<\/p>\n Yes, the 10th season will be the last ever Doc Martin<\/a> instalment to grace our screens on ITV, following an announcement from Martin\u00a0Clunes and producer Philippa Braithwaite (also Clunes\u2019 wife).<\/p>\n \u201cWe 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,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n \u201cThe 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.<\/p>\n \u201cHowever, after 16 years we now feel that the time has come to say goodbye to Portwenn. We will be making the 10th and final series in 2021 and we are very much looking forward to returning to Cornwall to film it.\u201d<\/p>\n In September 2020, Clunes confirmed that the next season would be the show\u2019s last during an appearance on Loose Women. During the interview, he explained that the long-running series was now at risk of repeating itself.<\/p>\n \u201cAll good things have to come to an end, and I\u2019m sure there are lots of people who aren\u2019t fans of the show who think it\u2019s terribly repetitive anyway. But we\u2019re at huge pains not to repeat ourselves,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cI just think we\u2019ve sort of done everything. I mean, it would be so great to just sort of carry on, but I don\u2019t think we can keep it as good.\u201d<\/p>\n He added: \u201cWe\u2019ve got such a lovely cast, and it\u2019s been 16 years. We all sort of bump into each other\u2019s children every two years and watch them growing up and flourishing, and just being down there [Cornwall] is heavenly.\u201d<\/p>\n The show follows the titular GP named Doc Martin, played by Martin Clunes since the first season in 2004. While his bedside manners remain non-existent, he\u2019s now established himself as a valued member of the fictional Portwenn community.<\/p>\n He\u2019s married to former teacher Louisa (played by Caroline Catz), with whom he has a young son, James, and a cheeky dog called Buddy.<\/p>\n The series also stars number of other regular cast members, including Dame Eileen Atkins (Aunt Ruth), Ian McNeice (Bert Large), John Marquez (PC Joe Penhale) and Jessica Ransom (Martin\u2019s receptionist Morwenna Newcross).<\/p>\n There have also been several high-profile guest stars during the past nine seasons, including Oscar-winner Sigourney Weaver, who has appeared in two episodes<\/a> as US tourist Beth Traywick. Fingers crossed that ITV recruit some high-profile celebrities to cameo in this last season of the long-running and beloved show.<\/p>\n Doc Martin is available to stream on BritBox and series 10 will air next year.
