Eliza Scarlet Strikes a Sixth Pose: Miss Scarlet Renewed!

Get ready to reunite with the fierce and fabulous Eliza Scarlet! The beloved series “Miss Scarlet,” featuring the talented Kate Phillips in the lead role, is officially coming back for a sixth season. Production will kick off this month in the stunning backdrop of Belgrade, Serbia, because where else would a Victorian detective series look so good?
Alongside Phillips, fans can look forward to seeing familiar faces like Tom Durant-Pritchard (DI Alexander Blake), Cathy Belton (Ivy), and Ansu Kabia (Moses). But hold up, newcomers are also making waves this season! Enter Sam Buchanan as Detective George Willows—a fresh face at Scotland Yard who has some serious chops after climbing the police ranks. Not to be outdone, Grace Hogg-Robinson will portray Isabel Summers, an ambitious addition to the Clerical Office, sparking intrigue and perhaps a little rivalry with Ivy.
The official logline promises thrilling developments: “As Eliza and Blake’s once-fraught relationship begins to evolve, they find that working together may be a tricky prospect.” Let’s just say, for those shipping Eliza and Blake, the tension ain’t going anywhere soon. Meanwhile, newlyweds Ivy and Potts will be figuring out the ins and outs of married life, while the often-chaotic Nash continues to stir the pot from afar. And just when things get rough, Moses is back to lend a helping hand when Eliza and her crew need it most. Talk about a comeback!
This season is steered by the creative minds of Rachael New and Ben Edwards, under the watchful eyes of directors Ivan Zivkovic and Rachael New. As if you needed any more reasons to be excited, the show’s producers are eager to continue Elizabeth Scarlet’s thrilling escapades, promising twists and returning favorites.
“Miss Scarlet” has become a cooking pot of detective drama and character evolution that has captivated audiences. With Season 5 set to premiere in the UK this March on U&alibi, fans can dive into earlier seasons available for streaming on platforms like Sky and NOW. So, whether it’s your first time diving in or you’re a die-hard fan, grab your magnifying glass and get ready for more mystery and mayhem!
