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."

Enjoyed that. A tad issue-packed, but it's still well above average TV.

I was pleased to see Emmet! And yes, he's usually a baddie so interested to see what his part in this is.

Bit confused with all the different characters but suppose episode 1 is just scene setting.

daffodilandtulip · 10/02/2025 08:42

Yes I was confused by all the characters but I'll believe it's good enough to make sense in the end.

I think she had her husband back because juggling the job and childcare was a nightmare and her mum kept being arsey with her. So more of a practical thing?

LizzieSiddal · 10/02/2025 08:50

Can I ask a question?

The person at the end, lying on a bed and reading a book (I won’t say where he was). Is that a new character or was he in a past series? TIA

I think it’s fine to say where he was as the episode has been broadcast (Blonde’s rules!)

He was in a previous series - s4 I think - a police detective jailed for corruption.

CollaterlieSistersSister · 10/02/2025 09:01

My insomniac brain was trying to come up with some possible links between the characters last night, not entirely successfully. But the illegal immigrants in Gerrard’s rental properties, possibly?

Purplelimesoda · 10/02/2025 09:08

Love this show love the theme tune and pleased the series didn't change with the new female lead. So many programmes loose their way when one of the leads move on but thankfully not this one.

the80sweregreat · 10/02/2025 09:20

That sandwich which Marty made his mum looked awful :(
Wondering what the links are with everyone involved.

GriseldaMolestrangler · 10/02/2025 09:34

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/02/2025 11:20

It’s worth having a read of the recaps

I had forgotten stuff

https://www.wttw.com/playlist/2023/09/03/unforgotten-recap-season-5-episode-1

Yes Jess wasn't into the vintage trend resulting in her not realising the victim wasn't pre-1960s but had bought a dress in a vintage shop.

Thanks @CollaterlieSistersSister will have to revisit that series.

Ram Sidhu he was in a previous series (and also Eastenders). More info on his previous stint and why he's in prison here (don't think it contains any spoilers and i saw the 2nd episode last night) https://www.walesonline.co.uk/lifestyle/tv/unforgottens-ram-sidhu-what-happened-30938635

Bigearringsbigsmile · 10/02/2025 10:30

I think the connecting characters have all lived in one of the rental properties at one point.
I think dead man had an affair and that's what the daughter was hinting at.
I think autistic man is going to do some sort of incel terrorist attack

SydneyCarton · 10/02/2025 18:47

Termination for medical reasons

Piggywaspushed · 10/02/2025 18:55

Ram Sidhu's character was actually really interesting. Your typical very complex Unforgotten character in that he ultimately had done bad things but was not essentially a morally dreadful person iirc.

BestIsWest · 10/02/2025 19:00

Was it me or was that leg massively out of proportion? It looked huge.

ChonkyRabbit · 10/02/2025 19:07

BestIsWest · 10/02/2025 19:00

Was it me or was that leg massively out of proportion? It looked huge.

It did look huge but I think it's because we don't see a thigh in cross section like that. It was probably about right for a chunky man.

I was wondering how someone would be stabbed in the upper thigh. I'm picturing him lying on the ground and protecting his torso with his arms?
