The Marlow Murder Club has fast become a cozy crime favorite, blending sharp mysteries with quirky humor, and fans have been buzzing with one big question: Will there be a Season 3? The answer is yes.
PBS MASTERPIECE has officially renewed the series for a third installment, and the sleuthing trio of Judith, Suzie, and Becks will be back in action. With new murders to solve, more eccentric suspects, and the promise of clever twists, the upcoming season is shaping up to be the most ambitious yet.
Another renewal of the success of The Marlow Murder Club
When a show captures a fandom as quickly as The Marlow Murder Club has, renewals feel almost inevitable. Released in 2024 on PBS MASTERPIECE, the series is adapted from Robert Thorogood's bestselling novels and has steadily built a loyal following.
Season 2, released in 2025, and with the finale already done, the fandom has immediately begun speculating about the future. However, PBS had officially already confirmed a Season 3 way back in May 2025. The excitement shown by the fandom is also the people's excitement working on the show.
Susanne Simpson, executive producer at MASTERPIECE, stated:
"It's a thrill to bring a third season of The Marlow Murder Club to our US audience. I know our viewers are looking forward to more of the heart and humor that makes this series so special."
Claire Hookway, commissioning executive at UKTV, also noted that after the "huge success of the first two series," she was delighted to continue with:
"Following the huge success of the first two series, we’re thrilled to return with another instalment where Judith, Suzie, Becks, and our police team are faced with three puzzling new mysteries to solve."
Season 3 will unfold across six episodes, with three separate murder cases playing out over two episodes each. This format has become a signature of the show, allowing every mystery the breathing space it deserves. The new season will draw directly from Thorogood's third novel, The Queen of Poisons, which promises darker turns while keeping the light touch and humor fans expect.
What can the fandom expect in Season 3 of The Marlow Murder Club?
Season 3 is about expanding the world of The Marlow Murder Club. The synopsis already teases a blend of personal stakes and community-wide drama. It reads:
"From the sudden death of the town's beloved mayor – the nicest man in Marlow – to a celebrity chef found dead at the launch of his cookbook with half the town in attendance, the team will be working under the watchful eye of the Marlow community. They'll also be called to action at a university reunion in an eerie manor house where in a surprising twist, Becks finds herself amongst the suspects. Could this case threaten our amateur sleuths’ roles as civilian advisors?"
First, the sudden death of Marlow's beloved mayor, described as the "nicest man in town," shakes the community. Then, chaos erupts when a celebrity chef is found dead during the launch of his cookbook, with half the town watching.
Finally, the trio will face their trickiest test yet: A university reunion set inside an eerie manor house, where Becks herself is shockingly pulled into the case as a suspect. The amateur detectives are now working as recognized advisors under DI Tanika Malik, which adds a new layer of accountability to their unconventional methods.
This progression reflects the way the show has evolved: What began as three women stumbling into mysteries has grown into an established crime-solving partnership.
The cast lineup ensures continuity, with Samantha Bond, Jo Martin, Cara Horgan, and Natalie Dew reprising their roles. Familiar supporting players like Holli Dempsey, Phill Langhorne, and Tijan Sarr will also return. For fans, these recognizable faces only mean that both comfort and surprise are waiting in Season 3.
The Marlow Murder Club has always loved to bring in humor and mystery, and Season 3 looks set to amplify these elements. With PBS and UKTV confirming the renewal, fans can rest easy knowing more twists in Marlow are on the way.
Three new murder cases, the continued adventures of Judith, Suzie, and Becks, and the adaptation of The Queen of Poisons all point toward a season that will deliver both comfort and appalling shocks. In short, the club isn't closing its doors anytime soon, and a new season is surely on its way.
