Newcastle: Brenda Blethyn, the star of ITV’s beloved series Vera, is getting ready to say goodbye. The show, which started back in 2011, is wrapping up, and Brenda has been looking back on her time as the iconic detective.
She’s really grateful for the amazing crew that’s been with her since day one. Brenda mentioned how loyal everyone has been, saying there was never any ego on set. It sounds like a real family vibe!

She even talked about the security team, who kept her safe without being intrusive. It’s great to know they were looking out for her while she mingled with fans.
Brenda shared that Vera has created a lot of jobs, which made her think twice about leaving. She admitted she’s not entirely sure if stepping away is the right choice, but family is her top priority.
She’s hopeful for the local industry, especially with new projects like the Crown Works Studios in Sunderland, which could bring thousands of jobs to the area.
As Vera prepares for its emotional farewell with a two-part series starting in January, fans can expect a gripping experience. The first episode, titled ‘Inside,’ will see Vera facing tough choices and complex cases.
The finale, intriguingly named ‘The Dark Wives,’ promises a thrilling plot involving a violent crime and a missing girl, all while stirring up Vera’s childhood memories. It’s bound to be a rollercoaster!
