The Doctor Blake Mysteries has been saved by the Seven Network after being axed by ABC.
Despite pulling in millions of viewers, ABC decided to cancel the drama series starring Craig McLachlan as Doctor Blake and Nadine Garner as Jean.
“The people have spoken and the good folk at Seven were listening. Their enthusiasm for the show has been amazing. And the support we’ve received from the Blake Army has been genuinely overwhelming,” McLachlan said.
“Our ever-loyal audience continues to demonstrate their love for their favourite Aussie drama by tuning in each week in jaw-dropping numbers. To them, on behalf of the entire ‘Blake team’ I say thank you.”
In 2018 the series will pick up in 1963, JFK has just been assassinated and Blake and Jean, together, will face greater challenges than ever before.
“Haunted houses, flying saucers, deadly dentists, long lost daughters and much, much more.”
