Fans of Miss Scarlet are receiving an early holiday present this year.
WHRO Passport members can binge-watch all of Season 5 beginning December 8—one month before the broadcast premiere.
About Season 5:
Eliza’s agency is thriving, and her professional life is on a successful path – on the personal side however, Duke has now been away in New York for several months and Eliza is forced to make a difficult decision. Meanwhile, a new Detective Inspector comes to Scotland Yard and Eliza must navigate building a relationship with him if she’s going to continue having access to police resources. All these changes and decisions beg the question – can Eliza Scarlet have it all?
Season 5 premieres on January 12 on WHRO TV 15.
A Beloved Character Departs
MASTERPIECE on PBS has announced that Kate Phillips (Wolf Hall, The Crown) will return as Miss Eliza Scarlet for a fifth season of investigations, and the series will be retitled, “Miss Scarlet.” Stuart Martin, who played William “The Duke” Wellington in the previous four seasons will not return for Season 5.
Kate Phillips says, “I will miss working with my pal Stu every day, and know Eliza will miss her Duke, but I think the best is yet to come for her. I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in store for Season 5.”
Masterpiece Executive Producer Susanne Simpson agrees, “This new chapter in Eliza’s story is going to bring our audience more of what they’ve come to love about this series – mystery, humor, potential romance and most of all, Kate Phillips’ terrific performance as Miss Scarlet.”
