What will happen in Unforgotten series four?
In the series’ opening episode, the team discovers a dismembered body in a scrap metal yard that appears to have been stored in a domestic freezer for 30 years.
Helped by a distinctive Millwall Football Club tattoo, they’re able to identify the victim as a young man who went missing in 1990.
Nicola Walker said the break in filming actually helped create the right atmosphere to bring back DCI Cassie Stuart.
“I am sure everyone feels this… you come back to a job and you think ‘I don’t know if I can still do this.’ It is a really strange feeling,” she explained.
“And ironically that was fine for me because that is exactly where Cassie is this year, which struck me as rather funny. It was perfect for Cassie because she doesn’t know if she can do it anymore and on a very real level I wasn’t sure that I could either. So it worked in my favour rather than against me.”
