River City fans have been left completely devastated following the news this week that the Glasgow-based soap will be no more.
After launching its first episode back in 2002, it has been confirmed on Tuesday that the show will be scrapped after more than two decades (23 years) on the small screen.
BBC confirmed the soap, which amassed huge audiences across Scotland, will be fazed out from 2026 as audience viewing habits changed and also to make way for the "next generation of drama production in Scotland," before teasing three new titles.
The Glasgow-based show is well-loved by Scottish audiences and won Best Drama at the RTS Scotland 2023 awards. Although there's new projects on the horizon, fans of River City have been left outraged following the news of its demise.
But fans can now take a walk down Shieldinch’s memory lane, including shocking murders, dramatic weddings and tragic accidents that the soap made its name for.
