Shakespeare & Hathaway has started filming series five in the UK.
Jo Joyner, Mark Benton and Patrick Walshe McBride reprise their roles as Luella Shakespeare, Frank Hathaway and Sebastian Brudenell.
Created by Paul Matthew Thompson and the late Jude Tindall, the series follows an unlikely pair of private investigators, ex-cop Frank Hathaway (Benton), and ex-hairdresser Lu Shakespeare (Joyner), as they work the streets of Stratford-upon-Avon, solving cases and murders most foul
Jo Joyner says: “I’m so excited to be stepping back into Luella’s bright and fluffy shoes! We have such loyal and brilliant fans who have been asking us daily if we’ll ever be back, so it’s wonderful to finally be able to say yes! I can’t wait to see Lu, Frank and Sebastian cracking more countryside crimes whilst squabbling fondly in series 5.”
Mark Benton says: “I’m so thrilled to be making the show again. The reaction was phenomenal and hopefully series five will be even better. I can’t wait.”
Patrick Walshe McBride says: “I’m so excited to be back filming Shakespeare & Hathaway. We have so much fun making the show and we put a lot of love into it. I hope viewers will be interested to find out what the characters have been up to over the last couple of years, and will enjoy accompanying us in a new season of murder and merriment. Anyone for Earl Grey?”
The series screens in Australia on ABC.
