Unforgotten Season 7 went into production on November 7 – on the same day that Broadcast revealked that the series is the most watched returning drama on any UK channel.
Sinéad Keenan and Sanjeev Bhaskar announced the critically-acclaimed drama Unforgotten had been recommissioned via social media in late February. Series creator and Executive Producer Chris Lang has written the seventh series. Andy Wilson, who has directed all previous six series, has returned to direct.
Writer Chris Lang said: “I am so delighted to have been asked to create another series of Unforgotten, and given the opportunity once again to follow Sunny, Jess and their brilliant team, as they attempt to crack another cold case. Unforgotten is a drama that has always asked its audience to lean in, concentrate, and engage with complex ideas, plots and themes, and we are profoundly grateful that such a large and loyal audience continue to enjoy doing exactly that. Roll on series 7!!”
