MISS SCARLET Renewed for Seventh and Final Season

Masterpiece PBS has renewed the period mystery series "Miss Scarlet", formrely known as "Miss Scarlet and the Duke", for a seventh and final season. Filming is currently underway in Serbia on the final six episodes. The show stars Kate Phillips, Tom Durant-Pritchard, Paul Bazely, Tim Chipping, Evan McCabe, Felix Scott, Cordelia Bugeja and Ansu Kabia.

Inspired by her father's work as a private eye, Eliza (Phillips) has spent the last six seasons breaking the glass ceiling while solving countless mysteries. She hasn't done it alone though – within Scotland Yard she was first aided by her childhood friend William "The Duke" Wellington (Stuart Martin) then by police Inspector and love interest Alexander Blake (Durant-Pritchard) Colleagues Moses (Ansu Kabia) and Clarence (Bazely) have backed her up on case after case, and Ivy (Cathy Belton) has been a mainstay of support at home.

In the final season, Eliza Scarlet has found love, but with it comes a new set of challenges, both on a professional and personal level. As she faces mounting pressures both at work and at home, she is reunited with familiar friendly faces, as well as a powerful new crime boss who has arrived in town – and it’s not who you might expect. Meanwhile, Blake’s promotion brings its own complications, as he finds himself answering to a surprising new boss with whom he shares a complicated history. Season seven raises the stakes, deepens the drama, and brings Eliza and Blake’s journey to a thrilling and satisfying close.

Here's what series creator/writer Rachael New had to say in a statement: "Making Miss Scarlet has been the greatest joy of my professional career. Every stage of this beautiful show — from the writing, filming, editing and finally it reaching the screen – it has taken a whole village. A village of exceptionally talented people. From the wonderful exec team who first saw the potential in this story, to my brilliant writing partner Ben Edwards, the Belgrade production team, the Dublin post team and not least to our remarkable cast led by the magnificent Kate Philips, it has been a collaborative and beautiful experience. I'm very proud of how the final season plays out and the story we tell for Eliza. It's a wrench to say goodbye to a character that I have lived and breathed for all these years, but Eliza will forever be with me whether on screen or off."

Phillips added: "What a journey this has been. Miss Scarlet has been one of the greatest joys of my career, and I will forever be grateful to Rachael New for creating such a witty, sharp, and delightful character in Eliza. It's been a privilege to work on a show crafted with so much love and dedication and as we prepare to say goodbye, I'm so proud of what we've achieved and the memories we’ve made. Thank you to everyone who has supported us — I can’t wait to share the farewell Miss Scarlet deserves".

"Miss Scarlet" is created by New and written by New and Ben Edwards, who also executive produce alongside Harvey Myman, Susanne Simpson, Jin Ishimoto, Patrick Irwin and Patty Lenahan Ishimoto. Jim Duggan co-produces alongside Anđelija Vlaisavljević and the Senior Series Producer for Masterpiece is Erin Delaney. Ivan Zivkovic directs the seventh season. The show is a co-production of Miss Scarlet Limited and Masterpiece in association with PBS and Other Mans Shoes.
