And finally, we have Tom Glenister and while his first name may not ring a bell, his surname is certainly one people will recognise. That's because Tom Glenister, whose biggest roles to date have been in Unhallowed Ground and Doc Martin, is the son of Robert Glenister and nephew of Philip Glenister, both well-renowned actors.
Vera, meanwhile, continues on ITV on Sunday, January 26th with the fourth and final episode of series 10 heading our way on February 2nd. Episodes 1 and 2 are also both available to stream on ITV Hub.
