If you’ve already have gained honorary citizenship of Marlow, Buckinghamshire, and worked your way through the first three series of The Marlow Murder Club<\/a>, you’ll know it’s a true crime drama<\/a> for the ages. And the good news is, it’s won’t be disappearing from our screens any time soon. The amateur sleuthing is officially back on as the beloved series is returning for what’s set to be a “personal” fourth series with the dream cast fans have come to love and know. <\/p>\n

Our favourite trio of amateur sleuths, Judith Potts (Samantha Bond), Becks Starling (Cara Horgan) and Suzie Harris (Jo Martin) are returning for an instalment full of family scandals, personal betrayals and plenty more killers to catch. Six new episodes will bring us three more murder mysteries, starting with the discovery of a body in the river, which is soon linked to the Marlow Amateur Dramatics Society. So, what exactly happened? <\/p>\n

Before we find out, here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming fourth series of The Marlow Murder Club, including the plot, cast and how to watch it.<\/p>\n

What is The Marlow Murder Club about?\"the<\/p>\n

UKTV<\/p>\n

The light-hearted crime drama is set in the sleepy town of Marlow and sees retired resident Judith Potts (Samantha Bond) take murder investigations into her own hands, with the help of two friends. It all begins when the avid crossword-setter and retired archaeologist takes a swim in the River Thames. Her peace is quickly shattered when she hears a gunshot next door, in the garden of Stefan Dunwoody, an art dealer. <\/p>\n

When she’s met with scepticism from the police, she embarks on her own private investigation and joins forces with dog walker Suzie Harris (Jo Martin) and vicar\u2019s wife Becks Starling (Cara Horgan). The new club realise that another death, of Suzie’s friend and client Iqbal Kassam, is likely linked. Together they work alongside the police (who are not always best pleased with their presence) to solve the murder mysteries of the idyllic riverside town.<\/p>\n

Over the course of two further series, we see the trio tasked with a whole new catalogue of mysteries. They help crack the murder case of wealthy baronet Sir Peter Bailey, investigate a stabbing in a planned housing redevelopment, and uncover the hidden identity of a disgraced investment banker after a mysterious sailing club death. There’s also the fatal poisoning of a councillor, a deadly university reunion and the murder of a celebrity chef.

What will happen in The Marlow Murder Club series 4?\"the<\/p>\n

UKTV<\/p>\n

The latest series will feature an adaptation of Sunday Times bestselling author Robert Thorogood\u2019s novel Murder on the Marlow Belle, alongside brand-new mysteries. DC Alice Hackett (Holli Dempsey), DS Brendan Perry (Phill Langhorne, DC Jason Kennedy (Tijan Sarr) and Natalie Dew (DI Tanika Malik) will all return as well as our dream sleuthing trio.<\/p>\n

The six new episodes will kick off with the the discovery of a body in the river that’s soon linked to the Marlow Amateur Dramatics Society and a homegrown Hollywood star. The team must also unravel the truth behind a man’s sudden death at his mother\u2019s wake. While he appears to have died from an allergic reaction, it seems there might well be more to it. <\/p>\n

The third and final murder involves the co-owner of a vineyard, who’s found dead, drowned in his own wine. The women must work to make sense of the seemingly unmotivated murder, but can they navigate the family scandals and personal betrayals to unmask the killers in their close-knit community? We hope so! <\/p>\n
