The Bay, an ITV thriller, has been renewed for a fourth season, with DS Jenn Townsend poised to reprise her role in another seaside mystery.
On Wednesday night, The Bay season 3 came to a close, with viewers finally learning the truth about aspiring local boxer Saif Rahman’s strange death.
Marsha Thomason made her debut as the drama series’ new star in the new season, as incoming family liaison officer DS Jenn Townsend, who inherits the difficult patch previously managed by DS Lisa Armstrong (Morven Christie), who led the cast in the previous two seasons.
“I’m happy that we will be returning to Morecambe for another series of The Bay,” ITV’s Head of Drama Polly Hill remarked of season 4. As DS Jenn Townsend, Marsha Thomason gave an outstanding performance, and it will be fascinating to see where Daragh takes her character in Series 4. Thank you to everyone at Tall Story Pictures for developing such a unique series and continuing to deliver it.”
“We are happy at how The Bay audiences have taken to new FLO, DS Jenn Townsend, played by the excellent Marsha Thomason, and how Jenn’s introduction and her personal storyline has injected new life into the program,” Catherine Oldfield, Executive Producer of Tall Story Pictures, said. We’re excited to get started on the new series.”
The Bay Season 3 Renewed?
Yes! Season 4 of The Bay will begin filming later this year, with more casting news to come.
Daragh Carville, co-creator and co-writer, previously told RadioTimes.com and other media: “We’d be delighted to return. The show is always envisioned as a recurring series.
“You can definitely tell by the way we’re talking about it that we’re all quite invested in these characters and the show’s environment. So, while we’d love to return, the decision is ultimately in the hands of the audience, so let’s see how they react.”
The Bay Season 4 Characters
Marsha Thomason, who starred in Cobra, will reprise her role as DS Jenn Townsend, a family liaison officer. Morven Christie, who will not be returning to the series, was replaced by her.
Daniel Ryan (Innocent, Home Fires), Erin Shanagher (Viewpoint, Peaky Blinders), Thomas Law (The World’s End, A Cinderella Story), and Andrew Dowbiggin (The World’s End, A Cinderella Story) are among the other The Bay cast members who are expected to return (Cobra, Coronation Street).
Will Marsha Thomason make a comeback?
Marsha Thomason, the current star, is anticipated to return for the fourth season of The Bay. Morven Christie, who played detective Lisa Armstrong in the first two seasons of The Bay, was replaced by Thomason, who had acted in the US drama Lost.
Thomason, who resides in LA and was in the UK when filming The Bay, told Digital Spy she’d be interested in resuming her part on the show.
“I had so much fun shooting it,” Thomason stated. “We were filming it with COVID, which made things a lot more difficult. Despite our masks, we still managed to have a good time… Hopefully, a fourth season will be produced, and we won’t have to wear masks!”

Final Lines
We don’t know when Series 4 of The Bay will air. Given that it’s set to shoot later in 2022, it’s safe to assume that we’ll see The Bay again in 2023.
The Bay’s most recent season was filmed over the summer of 2021 and premiered in early 2022; series 2 and 3 aired in January and February, respectively, thus series three is anticipated to follow suit in 2023.
