BBC Scotland's award-winning crime documentary series Murder Case is set to return with four new episodes examining three Scottish cases, including murders, a disappearance and a cold case reopened decades later.
The upcoming series, made by Firecrest Films, will feature interviews with the families of the victims, the media who covered the cases at the time, and the police who delivered justice. Release dates for the episodes have yet to be confirmed, but previous episodes are available on BBC iPlayer.
Cases featured in the new series
The new series will look into the murder of 23-year-old Cameron Logan on New Year's Day 2017 and the disappearance of bookkeeper Suzanne Pilley in 2010. The final episode will be dedicated to the cold case of Marion Hodge, decades after her disappearance in 1984.
Murder Case reportedly remains the top crime documentary of 2026 to date for BBC Scotland. Driven by the cases of The Vanishing Cyclist and The Hunt for Arlene Fraser's Killer, the series brought in 5.8 million viewing requests from across the UK.
What to expect
David Harron, commissioning editor for documentaries and specialist factual at BBC Scotland, said: "Murder Case remains one of our most important and popular brands and this new collection of stories keeps the standard as high as ever."
He added: "With exceptional access to the Major Investigations Team of Police Scotland plus family and friends of the victims it offers the audience real insight into how these murder investigations are conducted. And, as always, the often-heartbreaking stories are told sensitively and with great care and consideration."
