NEWS: Unforgotten Renewed for Series Four

ITV has announced today that critically acclaimed drama, Unforgotten, will return for a fourth series.

The new series will see  Nicola Walker and Sanjeev Bhaskar reprise their roles as DCI Cassie Stuart and DI Sunny Khan as they investigate another emotionally charged and compelling cold case.

The new six-part series will once again be penned by creator Chris Lang  and directed by Andy Wilson, both of whom have worked on all three of the previous series. Guy de Glanville will also return as producer.

Of the news Lang said, “I am so delighted to have been asked to make a fourth series of Unforgotten. The reaction to series 3 was better than I could ever have expected (with more people watching the last episode than any other in all three series) and I cannot wait to discover what lies ahead for Cassie and Sunny, and to create a whole new cast of characters for them to grapple with.”

The new series has been commission by ITV’s Head of Drama, Polly Hill, who said: “We have been delighted with the reception of the first three series of Unforgotten and are thrilled  to commission a fourth instalment. Chris Lang’s writing is incredibly powerful and his storytelling utterly compelling, so we have no doubt that the new case will have viewers gripped again.”
