About The Durrells TV Show
For even more cancellation/renewal news, see here.The Durrells is based upon Gerald Durrell’s classic trilogy of Corfu memoirs including the much loved ‘My Family and Other Animals’. Set in 1935, this timeless drama is full of warmth, humour and fun.
The story focuses upon Louisa Durrell (Hawes) whose life is in meltdown. Her husband died years ago and his money has all but run out. Her four unruly ‘children’ Larry, 21, played by Josh O’Connor (Ripper Street, Peaky Blinders), Leslie, 18, a role taken by newcomer Callum Woodhouse, Margo, 17, played by Daisy Waterstone (Silent Witness, Testament of Youth) and Gerry, 11, with Milo Parker (Mr Holmes, Ghosthunters) cast in the role, are going off the rails. Gerry is obsessed with animals and about to be thrown out of school; Larry is a would-be novelist but the worst estate agent in Bournemouth, and the middle two are hitting adulthood like a car-crash. It is the 1930s, and a woman’s options are limited.
Louisa realises she can carry on struggling, marry someone comfortably off but oppressive, or make a radical change and escape... from a domestic pressure-cooker, British weather, uptight Englishness and narrow horizons. This is a rescue mission to somewhere her family can heal itself before it’s too late. So, they uproot and move to Corfu!
Over six episodes we follow the Durrell family as they adjust to their new life. Along the way they’ll meet new friends, rivals and lovers.
Please don’t cancel the Durrells in Corfu — its one of my top favorite shows!!
Sorry it is cancelled it was so good
I am so disappointed because I love this show. at least give us an end movie for them.
It is sad, but this story does end at that point. Please find a new series to make…I truly liked this one and the end was heart breaking…
Please bring back the Durrells I love enjoying the series from 1 to 4 and I got books about it and I am deeply in love with the cast and the characters including Louisa Durrell, Spiros, Leslie, Margo , Larry and Gerald Durrell and many others and Daphne too . And I really want to see more of it and on series 3 I watched the scene where Gerry is 13 and has his birthday and in the 4th series he is 14 and in particular I would love to see Louisa and Spiros to be together again.
Please bring back The Durrells for a season 5. There need to be a proper ending and Season 4 was not that. It was heartbreaking.

I am all teary because we just watched the last episode of the Durrells in Corfu! My husband and I really enjoyed it. The characters were all so beautifully developed. They have five years of war to get through and we are all wondering how they managed. Please bring them back and satisfy their fans. 🙏 Thanks, Susan and Deane
