Filming has begun on the fourth series of popular Bath-based detective drama McDonald Dodds, starring Tala Gouveia and BAFTA award-winner Jason Watkins.
Comprising three feature length films (3 x120), the guest cast for the first story includes Toby Stephens (Lost In Space), singer/songwriter Pixie Lott (The Voice Kids), Lydia Leonard (Gentleman Jack), Daniel Lapaine (Catastrophe), Dipo Ola (Landscapers), John Gordon Sinclair (Gregory’s Girl) and Ace Bhatti (Line of Duty).
In this first film, McDonald and Dodds begin to investigate when a middle-aged woman is found shot dead in a rented flat. The killer has removed all clues to her identity, but DNA reveals she went missing over 35 years ago. Where has she been all those years? And who with?
Returning to the cast this series are Claire Skinner (Outnumbered) who plays Chief Superintendent Ormond and Charlie Chambers (EastEnders) who plays DC Goldie. Bhavik C. Pankhania (World On Fire) joins the line up as DC Lee.
The series has been commissioned for ITV by Polly Hill and Huw Kennair Jones and will be produced by Joe Shrubb. Executive producers are Robert Murphy, Damien Timmer and Charlotte Webber. The first film is written by Robert Murphy and directed by Khurrum M. Sultan.
Huw Kennair Jones said:
“We’re thrilled to be returning to the beautiful city of Bath for more original and inventive crimes for McDonald and Dodds to solve. And it’s great to be working with Mammoth Screen, Robert Murphy and Tala and Jason once again on what promises to be another brilliant series.”
McDonald Dodds is produced by leading independent production company Mammoth Screen and created by Robert Murphy.
The previous three series are available to view via streaming platforms ITVX in the UK and Britbox in North America and Australia. ITV Studios will distribute the drama internationally.

抽丝剥茧 无法自拔,吃着薯条的他们 都胖了,变胖搭档
案子本身还OK,抒情有点疲软,感到了剧组的疲惫,但故事的主题,比如第一集Dodds和Jinxy的真相、音乐和历史的交融讨论还是非常有诚意的。
最后一集虽然抽象了一点又挺妙,前两集的顺序不知道为什么字幕组的和imdb上的是返过来的但无妨,imdb上有人把The Rules of 3吹爆了,我个人倒是觉得很一般…Jinxy Sings the Blues里面的歌真的很不错,剧情也是,而且其实我特别喜欢的就是这一系列剧的开头,设计和拍摄真的都不错… 虽然第五季被砍了不知道未来还有没有机会再看到… S4.E1 ∙ The Rule of Three S4.E2 ∙ Jinxy Sings The Blues S4.E3 ∙ Wedding Fever
这部剧最早出的时候,我正痴迷于薇拉奶奶和摩斯老哥,相比较于前两者正统的英伦风,巴斯的案件有那么一丢丢滑稽。但是第二部之后,强大的编剧功力和精湛的演技把这部剧拉回到长期连载剧的轨道上,Dodds的风格越来越具有个人魅力,也是少有的平民智力型探长,毕竟英剧里“仙人下凡”式的探长太多啦。
这一季略弱。第一集几条线跳来跳去一直没抓住我的注意力,仿佛看了好久才看完。二三集都很快就猜到了……第二集从两个女受害者是同一阵营,真凶是哪个就完全暴露。第三集按连环杀手的思路我甚至有去猜电台主播了,但是越来越觉得这个案子神神叨叨的精神状态很像abc谋杀案,果然是捏造连环杀手替罪羊挑衅警方的脱壳计。然后演员也多多少少泄底了吧,Ben啊,都变老头了……
