'Incredible' ITV Drama 'on Hold' After Two Series with No Plans to Return

ITV ends Malpractice after two seasons despite praise for production and cast, with no plans for continuation amid complex commissioning decisions.

  • Earlier this year, ITV cancelled the medical drama Malpractice after its second series and said there are no plans for a third series.
  • Following the broadcaster's review, ITV cited commissioning reasons for not proceeding, saying decisions involve many factors, while Grace Ofori-Attah, creator, expressed hopes for a third series this year.
  • The season featured Tom Hughes as Dr James Ford with an ensemble cast including Selin Hizli, Zoë Telford, Rick Warden, and Ace Bhatti, while series two followed the MIU probing Dr Ford after a patient’s death.
  • ITV thanked Grace Ofori-Attah and World Productions for two series as it confirmed the show will not return for a third, affecting fans and viewers who followed its medical cases.
  • The show's standalone-season format means MIU characters could recur, with Dr Norma Callahan and Dr George Adjei returning in series two, highlighting separate malpractice cases.
