Brenda Blethyn has explained why she and her Vera co-stars were forced to 'avoid' fans during production for the drama's latest episodes, as interest in the show an its filming locations builds ahead of the series finale this weekend.
BAFTA winner Brenda has been front and centre once again as her famous on screen alter-ego DCI Vera Stanhope has bee embroiled in a new clutch of murder mysteries over the last month, kicking off with the 'missing parts' from series 11, which began way back in August 2021, before being cut short on its return early last year.
Those two episodes were followed in quick succession by the first few from series 12 and now, just as Vera fans are getting used to having it back on Sunday nights at 8pm, it will soon disappear from schedules again, but not before this Sunday's series finale, which is being billed by author Ann Cleeves as 'unmissable.'
