BBC detective drama New Tricks is going to be axed after 12 series.
The show, which has been running since 2003, will have one last season before it’s taken off the air.
The current line-up consists of Larry Lamb, Tamzin Outhwaite, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Denis Lawson. They play a group of police officers who solve cold cases.
BBC One controller Charlotte Moore and BBC drama controller Ben Stephenson released a joint statement about the decision.
It said: “We are incredibly proud of New Tricks and would like to thank Roy Mitchell, the brilliant creator, Wall to Wall and Headstrong, and all the cast and teams involved across the 12 series.
“However, on BBC One it’s important to make room for new series and continue to increase the range of drama on the channel, so it won’t be returning after the next series airs this summer.”
