A Good Girl's Guide to Murder is returning for a third and final series

And it has already been filmed!

The BBC has confirmed that hit drama A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder will return for a third series, completing the screen adaptation of Holly Jackson's bestselling book trilogy, with Emma Meyers back as this final chapter brings Pip's ultimate investigation to its gripping conclusion.

The final instalment has already been filmed and will also see Zain Iqbal, Henry Ashton, Asha Banks, Jude Morgan-Collie, Eden Hambelton Davies, and Yali Topol Margalith reprise their roles.

Speaking ahead of the final series, writer Holly Jackson, said "I am ecstatic that we are able to bring A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder to its (bloody) conclusion. As Good As Dead is my favourite of the book series and it’s by far my favourite season of the show too. You’ll see Pip as you’ve never seen her before. It’s dark, breathless, horrible and… somehow still manages to be funny. Come on back to Little Kilton for the final time…if you dare."

To which Emma Myers added "I'm very happy that we get to bring everyone series 3 of A Good Girl's Guide To Murder. Thank you so much to everyone who has given this show love and support throughout! This has truly been an incredible experience and Pip will be a character I will never forget. Book 3 is my favourite of all the books, so I'm very excited to show everyone what we've done. Get ready for a crazy time!"

Made by Moonage Pictures, part of ITV Studios, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder is a co-production with Netflix and ZDFneo, produced by Sophie Klein and Sophie MacClancy, directed by Tom Vaughan and executive produced by Matthew Read, Simon Crawford Collins and Frith Tiplady for Moonage Pictures; Danielle Scott-Haughton and Katherine Bond for the BBC; and Holly Jackson, Emma Myers and Tom Vaughan.

And the BBC's Director of Drama, Lindsay Salt, said "We’ve loved seeing A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder prove so popular with viewers on the BBC. I know its many, many passionate fans will be as delighted as we are to know that the third part of Holly Jackson’s trilogy has already filmed and will be arriving on screens next year. Bring it on!"
