Forensic Pathologist Dr. Nikki Alexander (Emilia Fox) returns to BBC One next month, alongside Forensic Scientist Jack Hodgson (David Caves) and Forensic Lab Scientist Clarissa Mullery (Liz Carr), along with the new head of The Lyell Centre – Forensic Pathologist Dr. Thomas Chamberlain (Richard Lintern).

Chamberlain’s confidence and political nose make him a good choice to lead the Lyell Centre after the death of Leo Dalton, but his sudden arrival and new approach is met by a frosty reception from Nikki, Jack and Clarissa. It’s not long before his judgment is called into question, but how quickly will Thomas be able to prove his worth?

Series 17 begins at 9pm on Thursday 2 January on BBC One. The second episode of the opening two-part story, ‘Commodity’, will air the following night.
