Bradley Walsh 'halts' The Larkins axe rumours during ITV This Morning interview

TV favourite Bradley Walsh has cleared up rumours that The Larkins isn't coming back for a new series because it 'flopped' in the ratings. The actor and comedian took the opportunity to quash the rumours during an appearance on ITV's This Morning.

Joining Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, Bradley directly addressed the rumours about the show being axed and falling ratings. The Larkins, which is a spin-off from 90s series The Darling Buds of May, made its debut on ITV in 2021.

Bradley plays Pop, a role played by Only Fools and Horses legend David Jason in the original series, with Joanna Scanlan as Ma, following in the footsteps of Pam Ferris. According to Chronicle Live, the first series of The Larkins attracted an average audience of over five million with series two, which aired last year, dipping to just over four million.
