Yah it’s back.

Unforgotten

This will be tv paced , as mine always are

as it will be on ITVX as a box set so sure there will be binge threads

No spoilers please 😘

Sinéad Keenan and Sanjeev Bhaskar return for another instalment of the hit ITV crime drama.

The sixth season is set to premiere on ITV1 (and STV in Scotland) on Sunday 9th February at 9pm, with all episodes of the season available to stream on ITVX as a boxset on the same day.

The second episode will then air on Monday 10th February at 9pm, also on ITV1 and STV.

And then back the following sun /mon eve

The new run takes on a brand new case, with Sinéad Keenan and Sanjeev Bhaskar (www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/unforgotten-cast-itv/) reprising their leading roles as DCI Jessica James and DI Sunny Khan, respectively.

While their initial season working together didn't get off to the smoothest of starts, we're sure things will be a little more plain-sailing for Jessie and Sunny as they embark on yet another grisly investigation.

Like previous seasons of the hit ITV drama, we'll once again be thrown into another complicated case that offers up multiple individuals that seemingly don't have a connection but are somehow caught up in the case at hand.

According to the synopsis: "The series begins when suspected human remains are uncovered on Whitney Marsh – Jess and Sunny are immediately called to the scene, abandoning their evening plans to Jess’s husband’s chagrin.

Dr Balcombe’s analysis reveals that the remains are relatively recent and suggest a grim conclusion: the body was placed there already dismembered.

"With this insight, Jess and Sunny intensify their search certain that other body parts may not be far away."

The guest cast for the series includes MyAnna Buring (The Witcher), Elham Elas (Shantaram), Victoria Hamilton (COBRA) and newcomer Max Fairley, as well as Jan Francis (Just Good Friends) and Damien Molony (Brassic (www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/brassic-sky-cast/)).

Andrew Lancel (Bolan’s Shoes) is also reprising his role as Jess’s husband Steve, while Kate Robbins (The Couple Next Door (www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/the-couple-next-door-season-2-cast-confirmed-newsupdate/)) returns as Jessie's mother Kate.

Teasing what's to come with their characters, the season 6 synopsis reveals: "As the investigation unfolds, viewers are introduced to a diverse new cast of characters: Melinda Ricci (MyAnna Buring), an outspoken television commentator based in Ireland; Martin 'Marty' Baines (Max Fairley), an autistic man living with his mother Dot in Deal, Kent; Asif Syed (Elham Elas), an Afghan training for his UK citizenship test; and Juliet Cooper (Victoria Hamilton), a history lecturer and faculty head at a London university.

"While these characters live seemingly separate lives, they are intricately connected by their pasts.

It’s up to Jess, Sunny, and their dedicated team to uncover these hidden links and ultimately expose the truth behind the cold case murder."

@imfae I posted links to recaps for s5

Thanks - will have a look . Will watch series 6 and see how it goes .
Appreciate that the new actress has very large shoes to fill .

Thank you @Blondeshavemorefun.
Looking forward to watching it and reading all the comments on here.
Once again I'll have to wait as I have no ITV. I wish Virgin Media TV in Ireland would strike a deal with ITV and I'd get to see series like these at the same time as they are on in the UK.
Instead Virgin Media give us about seventy billion channels you wouldn't be bothered watching, along with BBC 1, 2 etc, Channel 4, Sky News, RTE and Virgin Media One which gives us some ITV shoes eventually.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/02/2025 09:13

Ah but you get stuff on alibi before us @deeahgwitch😂

All episodes will be available to buy every week on iTunes so that’s a way to watch it a bit sooner @deeahgwitch

ShowAndGo · 04/02/2025 15:08

I remember watching the last one and thinking it was a bit too easy to guess who'd done it, based on the rather judgey characterisation. (spoiler vagueness). And then the final interview scene felt more like a stern lecture from the writing team than something that might actually happen in a police station.

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/02/2025 11:20

It’s worth having a read of the recaps

I had forgotten stuff

The previous series was awful compared to the others. The backstory was needlessly complicated and tick-boxey. Couldn’t have cared less about the Ebele character and what she’d experienced.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/02/2025 23:52

Finally this starts tomorrow 😍

I've started watching. Nearly finished the first episode and confused about all the different characters already. I can already see it has an agenda

westisbest1982 · 09/02/2025 11:48

I've watched the first two and not feeling it so far. I sense that Chris Lang is on his soapbox about the evil doings of GB News and wants to lecture us about autism.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/02/2025 12:23

Remember this is tv paced and e1 is tonight at 9

Will watch because I have always loved it but blimey, the last series was awful. Let’s hope they’ve had time to improve.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/02/2025 13:24

I think it is very hard for someone to take over a role who was well loved and all gutted when died

CollaterlieSistersSister · 09/02/2025 14:00

I’ll give it a go tonight, but joining those who didn’t enjoy the last series.

I didn’t warm to the new DCI at all, and in recent interviews I’ve not really taken to the actor either (possibly interview fatigue at play though).

Shame because Suni and the rest of the team are great, but she’s so prominent it could make me turn off. Suni should just have got the gig. Those big shoes to fill would have fit so much more comfortably.

I shall indeed give it a go though.

Created a non pace thread!

There's also another thread on here, I hadn't spotted this one!

westisbest1982 · 09/02/2025 17:58

I can’t be bothered waiting until the end of March to find out the reveal - will anyone?!

CwmYoy · 09/02/2025 18:15

Just binged it. Was concerned how I'd like it without Nicola but it was excellent.

Precisely. And all farmers are exploitative shits

Did Jessie’s husband make a reappearance in the last series or is this a new thing for this series? And has Sunny broken up with his nice girlfriend, or did that happen in series 5? Can’t remember!

Both couples were split at the end of the last series. I still wonder if they're going to go down a Sunny/Jessie romance route, but I hope not.

New series is off to a cracking start, lots of interesting threads. Personally I'm sad it's a "wokeness gone mad" series because I see enough of that polarising argument in real life, but hopefully the writing will be strong enough to pull it off. I'm already a bit annoyed by how unsubtle the conversation in the university office was.

Will state for the record that my theory is there's a decapitated head in Sunny's backpack.

JenniferBooth · 09/02/2025 22:08

Oh the GB News angle

SydneyCarton · 09/02/2025 22:10

Sunny when looking at a honking great muscular human leg bristling with dark hair:

”Can you tell what sex the victim was?”
