Masterpiece has released the first trailer for Miss Scarlet and The Duke ahead of its season four premiere on Jan. 7 at 8 on PBS.
In the new season, Kate Phillips (The Crown, Wolf Hall) and Stuart Martin (Jamestown, Crime) return as the titular will-they-won’t-they crime solvers. Eliza has taken over the business of Nash & Sons (not that he has any sons), and things are not going entirely smoothly, although help comes from some familiar sources. Outside of work, her relationship with William (The Duke) builds towards a looming decision that will shape both their lives.
The drama returns on the same night as All Creatures Great and Small, which is also returning for its fourth season. It will pick up in springtime of 1940 with change on the horizon for everyone in Skeldale House. James and Helen wonder when the right time might be to start a family, not knowing whether or not James will be called up to serve in the RAF.
Miss Scarlet and The Duke is an Element 8 Entertainment production co-produced with Masterpiece in association with 87 Films, Other Mans Shoes and Work in Progress
