UKTV has confirmed the re-commission of the hit U&alibi drama, Bookish, created by and starring Mark Gatiss.
The order includes a new two-part festive special, Bookish: The Crown of Destiny (2×70’) alongside a third series (6×70’) of the detective drama with the latter set to air in 2027.
Bookish is produced by Eagle Eye Drama, part of ITV Studios, with Beta Film handling world sales as international distributor and PBS Distribution holding North American rights.
Bookish: The Crown of Destiny will see Gabriel Book (Gatiss) open the doors of Book’s Books on Archangel Lane for a brand-new story, “bringing viewers a seasonal mystery packed with festive charm, surprises and a dash of Christmas spirit.”
The third series production is set to begin later this year. The new episodes “will deliver even more of the intrigue, wit and compelling mysteries that have made Bookish a favourite with audiences, with more stories set to launch on U&alibi in 2027.”
