Tim Key, executive producer, said: “We are delighted to be back in the beautiful South West, filming what promises to be our strongest series yet, packed full of mysteries, surprises, challenges and lots of heart.
Set against the backdrop of the countryside and coast of Devon and Cornwall, new cases will include a body found in the river on the county border, a chocolate box poisoning, a historic farming feud and a spiking incident on the water.
Esther navigates a surprise encounter in her private life, a health scare for Anne stirs up painful memories and Kelby embarks on a journey of personal growth.
