Ted Lasso season 4 will also premiere later in the summer and drop new episodes weekly, and Goldstein's foul-mouthed Roy Kent is set to return.
The question is, will he get back together with Juno Temple's Keeley Jones or not?
Meanwhile, Manville's cosy crime murder mystery series based on Anthony Horowitz's franchise of Susan Ryeland novels is coming back this year.
The Marble Hall Murders will see the action move to Corfu, with guest stars including The Celebrity Traitors' Mark Bonnar, Game of Thrones' Harry Lloyd, Whitechapel's Rupert Penry-Jones and Line of Duty's Anneika Rose, to name a few.
Her latest film, Winter of the Crow, just had its first UK screenings as part of the SXSW London festival. Set in Warsaw in 1981, the film follows Manville's character as the city is thrown into martial law.
