It has finally been announced that Strike: Lethal White will air its first episode on BBC One August 30th followed by episode two the following day, August 31st.

”Lethal White is the fourth installment in the Strike saga. We join Strike and Robin on a new case, investigating blackmail attempts made against an MP, but – spoiler alert – that soon turns into a murder investigation.” – Holliday Grainger (Robin Ellacott) from the BBC website.

The series will have a total of four episodes, all directed by Sue Tully and written by Tom Edge. We can assume that episode 3 will air the following weekend and possibly episode 4 the weekend after that.

The series will eventually be on Cinemax in the US, though no dates have yet been announced for America or any other countries.

“Robin is a junior partner in the agency and has grown in confidence, so much so that she’s now investigating a case single-handedly, which is brilliant to see. But I think Lethal White is less about Strike and Robin coming together emotionally, and more about Robin struggling in her marriage to Matthew. She kind of needs to sort that out before she can move on to anything else.” – Ruth Kenley-Letts (producer) from the BBC website.

If you need a rewatch, the first three can be found on BBC iPlayer and Sky Box Sets.
