[Warning: The following contains spoilers for the Unforgotten<\/a><\/em> Season 6 finale.]<\/strong><\/p>\n Six seasons in, British crime drama Unforgotten<\/i> continues to tell gripping, complex stories. When the killer of brutish husband, father and business proprietor Gerry Cooper was revealed in the Masterpiece<\/a><\/em> series\u2019 Sunday, September 28 finale on PBS, it turned out not<\/em> to be any of the four persons of interest set up at the start: his wife Juliet (Victoria Hamilton<\/a>), onetime mistress Melinda (MyAnna Buring<\/a>), former employee Marty (Maximilian Fairley<\/a>), and the Afghani translator who had aided some of Gerry\u2019s immigrant tenants, Asif (Elham Ehsas<\/a>).<\/p>\n It was Gerry\u2019s teenage daughter, Taylor (Pixie Davies<\/a>), who was responsible for his death, and she hadn\u2019t even realized it because her mother had covered for her. When the girl, 11 years old at the time, saw her mother on the floor and her father striking Juliet with his foot, she grabbed a knife that was on the kitchen table and stabbed him in the leg.<\/p>\n He bled out, but by then Juliet had taken Taylor upstairs, before returning to dismember her husband\u2019s body and dispose of it in the marsh. In the end, police detectives Sunny Khan and Jess James (Sanjeev Bhaskar<\/a> and Sine\u0301ad Keenan<\/a>) learned that prosecutors opted not to charge either one.<\/p>\n Besides offering a terrific whodunit, Unforgotten<\/em> creator and executive producer Chris Lang,<\/a> who has written every episode of the series, wanted to explore the political divide that Britain \u2014 and many other countries \u2014 are facing through this season\u2019s characters.<\/p>\n \u201cThat was my prevailing theme, division,\u201d he tells TV Insider. \u201cI think the left and the right in the U.K. used to be able to rub along fairly amicably, but since Brexit, it\u2019s been really difficult, and it feels like people have entrenched themselves even further in their positions. There\u2019s a sort of straight fault line down the middle that\u2019s more marked, I think, than it\u2019s ever been.\u201d<\/p>\n
