Vienna Blood season 4 cast: Meet the characters of BBC crime drama
It's time to go back to Vienna, but who returns for the fourth season?
We are headed back to Vienna once more with the return of acclaimed BBC crime drama Vienna Blood.
The new season, which fans have been waiting for since December 2022, lands on BBC Two this weekend, with Max Liebermann and Oskar Rheinhardt returning once more for a deadly case.
Speaking about the new season, Sue Deeks, BBC's head of programme acquisition, teased an "exciting event" to come for season 4, so much so that "it needs to be told over two thrilling episodes".
Over the two episodes, the pair will tackle one singular case: a double murder of an arms dealer in police custody".
The synopsis for the series reads: "Doctor Max Liebermann has only just returned from a lecture tour when Inspector Rheinhardt asks for help in what could be the most dangerous case of their career.
"Oskar and Max discover a conspiracy that leads to the heart of government. Can the Freudian psychoanalyst and detective do enough to stop a seditious mole known as 'Mephisto' from bringing the Austro-Hungarian Empire to destruction? And will their lives ever be the same again?"
