The Larkins 'facing axe' after dropping 2 million viewers, reports say

The ITV drama The Larkins is reported to be facing the axe, according to tabloid reports. The programme, a remake of popular 1990s show The Darling Buds of May, is said to be having a viewing slump.

The drop in viewers follows the departure of star Sabrina Bartlett. Starring Bradley Walsh and Joanna Scanlan, The Larkins is set in the late 1950s and has just started its second series, reports KentLive.

However The Sun reports that the show has lost two million viewers. The series' first episode was watched by 2.9 million people, compared with 4.8 million for the same episode of the first series in 2021.
