Miss Eliza Scarlet is about to embark on her final case. 

PBS’s mystery drama Miss Scarlet is ending after its upcoming seventh season. Earlier this year, the broadcaster confirmed that the show, which stars Kate Phillips as the Victorian-era private detective and Tom Durant-Pritchard as her love interst, Detective Inspector Alexander Blake, would conclude with a final six episodes to air in 2027.

In Miss Scarlet Season 7, Eliza has found love with Blake, but their relationship comes with big challenges both personal and professional. Facing mounting pressures at work and at home, Eliza reunites with familiar friendly faces – including Ansu Kabia as Moses – as well as a powerful (and unexpected) new crime boss. Meanwhile, Blake’s promotion brings its own complications, as he must answer to a new boss with whom he has a complicated history. 

Miss Scarlet’s final season “raises the stakes, deepens the drama, and brings Eliza and Blake’s journey to a thrilling and satisfying close,” promises PBS. It all kicks off with the season 7 broadcast premiere on Sunday, January 17, 2027 at 8/7c on Masterpiece on PBS. 

“What a journey this has been. Miss Scarlet has been one of the greatest joys of my career, and I will forever be grateful to Rachael New for creating such a witty, sharp, and delightful character in Eliza,” Phillips said in a statement. “It’s been a privilege to work on a show crafted with so much love and dedication and as we prepare to say goodbye, I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved and the memories we’ve made. Thank you to everyone who has supported us — I can’t wait to share the farewell Miss Scarlet deserves.”
