“Gutted” Vera fans have called for the next series of the crime drama to be extended as the current four-episode run came to an end.
The ITV series finished on Sunday night in a tense instalment which saw DCI Vera Stanhope (Brenda Blethyn) searching for the killer of a young girl who went missing following a music festival.
But fans on social media said four episodes were not enough.
Please @ITV when you bring #vera back next year, can we have more than 4 episodes, @BrendaBlethyn is absolutely brilliant, just love her ?? pic.twitter.com/EckpE40ONG
