Common card · No. 297421

The Larkins is an English comedy-drama television series, produced by Objective Fiction and Genial Productions. The series is the most recent adaptation of H. E. Bates novel The Darling Buds of May. Both the novel and the series are set in rural 1950s Kent. The series stars Bradley Walsh as "Pop" Larkin and Joanna Scanlan as "Ma" Larkin. They have six children. The eldest daughter, Mariette, is played by Sabrina Bartlett (series 1) and Joelle Rae (series 2), while Tok Stephen plays accountant Cedric "Charley" Charlton. In February 2023, the British tabloid press speculated that the series had been cancelled owing to poor ratings, although there was no official statement from ITV. In a television interview, Walsh suggested that, although there might be no new series in 2023 owing to his own unavailability, the possibility of a feature-length special was being explored.
