Unforgotten
, which starred Nicola Walker in its first four seasons, will be leaving Netflix very soon. The ITV series, created and written by Chris Lang, focused on the working partnership between Walker's DCI Cassie Stuart and her colleague DI Sunil 'Sunny' Khan (played by Sanjeev Bhaskar).
The USP of
Unforgotten
is that the detectives are working hard to crack cold and previously unsolved cases, with the first season telling the story of a missing boy, whose remains are discovered years later during building works in a London house.
Unforgotten
is widely adored by fans, and has also garnered critical acclaim since first premiering in 2015. Fans on IMDb have been keen to share their praise, with
one branding it
"the epitome of British crime dramas".
"Truly a UK crime drama at its best," another
added
, before they went on to highlight Walker's "brilliant" performance and to call the show "exceptional". Meanwhile, someone else
branded
the show "flawless", before adding: "Hands down the best British crime drama I've ever seen."
ITV
Unforgotten
, which has now been running for six seasons and has
a seventh on the way
, currently sits with a 91% score
on Rotten Tomatoes
. Seasons two and three also boast a perfect 100% score individually.
Nicola Walker's Cassie Stuart doesn't feature beyond the season four finale, with her story reaching an emotional conclusion (we won't spoil that here though, if you're unfamiliar and wish to binge-watch the first four seasons before they are removed from Netflix).
A brand-new Detective Chief Inspector – Jessie James – was
introduced at the start of the fifth season
, with fan-favourite character Sunny Khan returning to keep a sense of familiarity.
DCI James is played by the brilliant Sinéad Keenan, who also more-recently starred in Netflix's own murder-mystery
How to Get to Heaven from Belfast
from
Derry Girls
' creator Lisa McGee.
In that, Keenan was joined by Roisin Gallagher and Caoilfhionn Dunne and the characters of those three central women embarked on a thrilling journey in search of answers after the sudden death of their childhood friend.
How to Get to Heaven from Belfast
premiered on Netflix in February, and we branded it a "must-watch" in
our four-star review
.
The first four seasons of
Unforgotten
are streaming on Netflix, but will be leaving the platform on 11 March. All six seasons are available as a box set on ITVX, and a release date for its returning season has not yet been confirmed.
The new edition of Living Legends, a 100-page all-colour celebration of Harry Styles, is here!
