Channel 5 rebrands to ‘Madame Blanc Mysteries’ for upcoming return
Channel 5 is making big changes, rebranding as “Madame Blanc Mysteries” to coincide with the return of the hit show. This change reflects the channel’s efforts to better connect its linear network with its streaming service, known as “My5.” The Madame Blanc Mysteries has been a sleeper hit since its debut, following protagonist Jean White as she solves crimes in the sunny south of France. The show’s light-hearted, cozy crime vibe has made it a fan favorite, offering viewers the chance to enjoy beautiful scenery and intriguing mysteries.
Fans of the show can look forward to Season 4, set in Sainte Victoire, promising a mix of antiques, murder, mystery, romance, and sunshine. The season will see Jean navigating a budding romance with her sidekick, Dom Hayes, along with appearances from familiar faces and some exciting guest stars. The ensemble cast is led by series creator Sally Lindsay, with co-writer Sue Vincent returning as her trusty mechanic friend, Gloria Beaushaw. The season is set to debut on Channel 5 in the UK on Thursday, March 20, 2025, and will likely make its way to Acorn TV later in the year.
Channel 5’s streaming service, formerly My5, has been thriving in the UK, gaining popularity with viewers and securing a range of exciting shows, including recent pickups from Paramount’s abandoned slate. With the rebrand to just “5,” both the streaming service and broadcast network will share the same name and programming. Keep an eye out for The Madame Blanc Mysteries Season 4 debut and immerse yourself in the world of cozy crime, romance, and jet skis with this beloved series.
