EMMY-WINNING actress Kyra Sedgwick, pictured right, is about to solve her last murder as the charming but tough detective Brenda Leigh Johnson on TV show The Closer.

The TNT network said on Friday that The Closer - a global hit with a large following in Bahrain - would end in 2011 after seven years.

Producers said the decision to conclude the crime series had been made by Sedgwick herself. "I cannot fathom how difficult it will be to say goodbye to the incredible family we've created on The Closer," Sedgwick, 45, said, thanking creator James Duff for 'such a rich and complex character who I have loved living year after year'.

"Kyra blazed a new trail in the television landscape with her performance as Brenda Leigh Johnson," said Michael Wright, head of programming for TNT.
