As a gamer, I’m excited about the upcoming episodes! After splitting up for some time, my team and I are reuniting once more. We’ve got some thrilling adventures lined up: think remote team-building retreats, intense paintball matches, and even a corporate spy in the mix! These events provide the perfect setting for us to test our bonds, until an unexpected twist occurs – our client gets electrocuted right before our eyes. Buckle up, it’s going to be a wild ride!
During the series, Frank receives an invitation to attend a reunion at a Murder Mystery School. Coincidentally, at this gathering, he encounters an old flame. However, things take a suspenseful turn when the group finds themselves stranded in a secluded mansion, with a murderer lurking among them.

Furthermore, a film director reportedly tormented by his own creations met an untimely end at the yearly ‘Horror-on-Avon’ gathering in Stratford, which is where Frank and Lu unexpectedly found themselves caught up in their very own horror flick. To add to her troubles, Lu returned from vacation only to discover that her home had been taken.
Unaware to our group, trouble is brewing – a secret enemy lurks in the darkness with the intention of causing permanent harm to Shakespeare and Hathaway. The plot thickens as we wonder if our team can come together swiftly enough to uncover this villain before it’s all over.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but rave about the captivating series Shakespeare & Hathaway. One viewer on IMDb shared my sentiments, highlighting the show’s hilarious scripts and intricate plot twists that make it an absolute delight to behold.
One person referred to it as “an excellent daytime puff,” stating: “If you appreciate a gentle, sex and violence-free drama without any explicit content, this could serve as an ideal escape for you.
The detective duo, Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators, is coming back to our screens this Wednesday, September 24th at 8pm, exclusively on U&Alibi. Starting from the same day, it will also be aired on BBC and BBC iPlayer. If you’d like to catch up or rewatch, all seasons 1-4 are available on BBC iPlayer.
