The first teaser trailer for the new Bergerac series has dropped.
Damien Molony stars in the title role of the reboot of the classic TV series, which will air on UKTV in early 2025.
Islanders may have spotted various scenes being filmed in Jersey this summer, including in the Royal Square, Bouley Bay and the Jersey Opera House.
We caught a glimpse of some of the filming in August:
Part of the scene being filmed here can be spotted in the new trailer, alongside a shot of iconic Jersey landmark Corbiere Lighthouse.
Alongside Damien Molony as Jim Bergerac, the series also stars Jersey actor Timothy Renouf, Zoe Wanamaker (My Family, Harry Potter) as Bergerac's mother-in-law and Philip Glenister (Life on Mars) as Arthur Wakefield.

The new series will be six episodes long and promises to be darker and moodier than the original.
Producers have teased the reboot in these terms:
"Viewers will meet Jim Bergerac (Molony) as a broken man, grappling with grief and alcoholism following his wife’s recent death.
"His mother-in-law, Charlie (Wanamaker), is concerned Jim isn’t putting his daughter Kim first and, when a woman from a wealthy Jersey family is murdered, Jim must fight through his personal struggles to become the formidable investigator he once was.
"With a troublesome convict resurfacing from his past, Bergerac is required to call on his sharp investigative instincts and past successes to navigate the intricate family dynamics, and watchful eyes of the police force, in order to solve the case."
