What is Miss Scarlet to do? Well, she keeps calm and carries on regardless and sets out to prove herself all over again.

What happened to Duke/The Duke?
In season 5 we learn that the William 'The Duke' Wellington is in America but co-lead Martin Stuart who played Duke opposite Kate Phillips left the show after four seasons in February 2024. He said in a statement at the time:
"It has been such an incredible joy to bring Duke to life through [series creator] Rachael [New]’s beautiful, brilliant writing, and to get to play him for the past four years.
"But it felt like the time was right for Scarlet to explore new stories and challenges for now, as the show continues to grow and evolve.
"I will miss working with my amazing partner in crime Kate and the rest of our brilliant family and team, but I’m excited to continue following Eliza and her escapades as a huge fan and newly enrolled Scarleteer!"
