Forensic pathologists Dr. Nikki Alexander (Emilia Fox) and Professor Leo Dalton (William Gaminara) return for Series 16 of the forensic crime drama tomorrow night, with the welcome arrival of Forensic Scientist Jack Hodgson (David Caves). Liz Carr, a regular presenter on the BBC’s Ouch! podcast, will also join the cast as Forensic Lab Scientist Clarissa Mullery.

The new series kicks off with ‘Change’ at 9pm on Thursday 10 January, which sees a wealthy, ageing confectionery company owner found dead in his London hotel suite. Nikki joins forces with Jack to prove to sceptical DI Gold that it’s murder, not death by natural causes. The second part of ‘Change’ will air on Friday 11 January.
