Roll on series seven!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mainstreet Pictures\u2019 Sally Haynes, CEO, and Guy de Glanville, managing director, commented, \u201cWe are elated about the recommission of series seven of <em>Unforgotten<\/em>. Chris Lang\u2019s scripts are magnificent, compulsive and heart-rending. It is a real honor and accolade to once again be joined by the wonderful Sanjeev Bhaskar and Sin\u00e9ad Keenan, who bring it all to life. Our thanks to ITV, BBC Studios and Masterpiece for their trust and support. It is a privilege to be doing this again for our faithful audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Unforgotten<\/em> is undoubtedly one of the U.K.\u2019s best-loved dramas, and we\u2019re thrilled to be returning for series seven,\u201d added Huw Kennair Jones, drama commissioner at ITV. \u201cAs well as Jess and Sunny, Chris has created a host of brilliant new characters in a totally compelling story. We\u2019re also indebted to Mainstreet Pictures for continuing to deliver such stand-out drama, with series seven promising to be as enthralling as all the others.
