After 23 years on air, the BBC has announced the decision to bring an end to the popular daytime drama series ‘Doctors’. The decision comes as the BBC faces funding challenges and the cost of producing the show has significantly increased.

With a flat license fee, the BBC has had to make tough choices in order to deliver greater value to audiences.
