Why is Miss Scarlet and The Duke losing one of its titular characters for Season 5?

Why Isn’t The Duke in Miss Scarlet Season 5?

Miss Scarlet and The Dukewas renewed for Season 5 in February 2024.

Miss Scarlet and The Duke, Stuart Martin

It was very, very tough.

My feeling was that theres something really interesting in him leaving.

Or certainly youd have to pull them back from it.

After taking over from the departed Duke, Alexander Blake will meet the private detective Miss Scarlet.

I cant wait for fans to see what we have in store for Season 5.

We will be keeping her very busy!

They were just such warm, lovely fans who got as passionate about it as you did.

Hopefully, hopefully they dont hate me.
