While the third season is still airing on ITV, the lush period drama, 'Mr Selfridge' has been renewed for a fourth season. The fourth season will get ten episodes.
Jeremy Piven (Entourage) will reprise his role as the colourful but deeply troubled Harry Selfridge and ITV is pleased to confirm that Katherine Kelly (Coronation Street) is set to return as the alluring socialite, Lady Mae Loxley.
Series regulars Tom Goodman-Hill, Ron Cook, Amanda Abbington, Amy Beth Hayes, Trystan Gravelle, Sacha Parkinson and Samuel West also return to tell the next chapter in the stories of their much-loved characters.
The series will also feature a major new character played by Line of Duty’s Sacha Dhawan and two new guest roles for newcomers Lottie Tolhurst and Mimi Ndiweni.
'Mr Selfridge' recounts the real life story of the flamboyant and visionary American founder of Selfridge's, London's lavish department store. Set in 1909 London, when women were revelling in a new sense of freedom and modernity, it follows Harry Gordon Selfridge ('Mile a Minute Harry'), a man with a mission to make shopping as thrilling as sex. Pioneering and reckless, with an almost manic energy, Harry created a theatre of retail where any topic or trend that was new, exciting, entertaining - or just eccentric – was showcased.
Filming takes place on location in greater London in the sumptuous replica of the Selfridge workplace which is located in a former carpet warehouse in North West London.
Kate Lewis, executive producer for ITV Studios said: “We’re delighted to be embarking on production of the fourth series of 'Mr Selfridge' and thrilled to be welcoming back Katherine Kelly along with introducing some talented new faces. This series marks a dramatic turn in fortunes for Harry as he loses grip on his empire. It’s a bit of a game changer for all the characters in the series.’
