Miss Scarlet Season 5 Premiere Date Announced

The Victorian detective series 'Miss Scarlet,' previously known as 'Miss Scarlet and The Duke,' will premiere its fifth season on January 12, 2025, following an early release for PBS Passport members on December 8, 2024.

The series aims to explore whether Eliza can successfully balance her career ambitions with her evolving relationships. Fans can expect a mix of mystery and romance as Eliza attempts to win over her new partner and thrive in her agency.
