The broadcaster says increased production costs mean the show has become unviable
The medical TV drama Doctors will end after more than 20 years, the BBC has announced, blaming “super inflation in drama production”.
The BBC said it had faced a “very difficult decision” on whether to reinvest in the Birmingham site where the show, which helped to launch the career of many actors, is filmed. It said costs had “increased significantly” at the location and had decided instead to finance new shows in the West Midlands.
