"For over a decade now, cast and crew (many who've been there since the beginning) have met each summer to film. And it's been an absolute joy. "Thank you to James Runcie for entrusting us with his characters. Thank you to the lovely people of real Grantchester. Thank you to everyone who's been a part of the show in any way, big or small. I'll miss you terribly." Following the news, many fans were sad to hear of the show's end. One said: "Nooo, please, this is devastating. This was my comfort show. We need a Leonard spin-off!" Another added: "I've been complaining that the seasons are too short, and here you are ending the series." Recommended reading: A third said: "Can hardly wait, and will be very sad to see this show leave." "So sad to see that Granchester is ending. Truly love this show and its entire cast of characters," said another gutted fan. Grantchester series one to nine are available on ITVX.
