Returning British crime drama that has fans hooked will have “tragic” start to new season

BBG News

Season 5 of ITV drama Grace will open on a sombre note for Roy and Cleo following the sad conclusion of the previous season.

The television show, “Roy Grace,” set in Brighton and starring John Simm as DS Roy Grace, is modeled after Peter James’s novels. In this series, Grace juggles solving cases alongside his personal struggle with his missing wife.

Season 4 ended with Roy finally finding Sandy, though she tragically died by suicide shortly afterwards. Before her death, Sandy told Roy he had a son he never knew of named Bruno, right as he was expecting a baby with new partner Cleo Moray (Zoë Tapper).

As I dive into the new gaming season, I’ll soon find out that Cleo tragically miscarried her baby. Amid this heartbreaking turn of events, our family is faced with the challenge of embracing Bruno under these difficult and complex circumstances. This new addition to our family dynamic will surely bring about interesting gameplay scenarios!

“And they’re also trying to deal with Bruno, who’s now kind of living with them, and they both have to try and bond with Bruno, through obviously tragic circumstances, what happened to Sandy and etc in the previous series.”

Tapper pondered over acting out those intense sequences where Cleo experiences a heart-wrenching tragedy.

“They were really poignant, moving scenes to film and interesting in another way, because I think for Cleo, her work is so integral to who she is as a person, and she’s on bereavement leave at the beginning of this series, and Roy has had to go back to work, so they’re separated in their grief as well,” the star said.

However, just like any other time in this series, she encounters numerous tasks to handle amidst everything else.

A fifth series of Grace is set to air this spring on ITV and ITVX, with the drama also returning for a sixth instalment.

Grace will return on ITV this spring, with seasons 1-4 available to stream on ITVX.

Organisations including Sands and Tommy’s are able to offer help and support to anyone affected by baby loss.
