Mysterious Masterpiece Dramas are Back on PBS

From L-R: Sunny Khan played by Sanjeev Bhaskar in Unforgotten: Ben Miller as Professor Tempest in Professor T; Suzie Harris played by Jo Martin in The Marlow Murder Club.

Returning to Sunday nights on PBS NC are some mysterious favorites leading you into the fall months. 

Professor T returns with more brilliant, eccentric detective work. We're all wondering how Jasper Tempest will approach his police work after the season 3 finale. What cases will he take on or refuse? How will his relationships with Dan and Helena evolve?  

The second season of The Marlow Murder Club finds the idyllic normalcy of Marlow disrupted by murder again. (Fun fact: the show is filmed in the actual English town!). Judith, Suzie and Becks return to sleuthing, tackling three seemingly impossible murders that will challenge their detective skills.  

And don't forget Unforgotten, a series that transcends your average cold-case drama. The new season opens with a brutal murder, and to solve this case, Jess, Sunny and their team encounter a new cast of seemingly unrelated characters. They must uncover these characters' connections to the victim and thus to the crime. 

So, mystery fans, don’t miss these new seasons, Sundays on PBS NC and streaming on the PBS app.
