The last season of Grace came to an emotional end for the detective, as he found his wife Sandy, bringing to an end the mystery which had plagued him since the very start of the series, but she tragically took her own life soon after.
In a note left for Roy, Sandy revealed that he had a son he never knew about called Bruno, and she asked him to take care of him. This came right as he and his new partner Cleo were expecting a baby.
Roy and Cleo stars John Simm and Zoë Tapper recently took part in a Q&A ahead of the show’s upcoming season 5, and the pair revealed the new episodes will begin on a heartbreaking note for the couple, with it being revealed that Cleo lost the baby.
In simpler terms, Simm shared that when we encounter Cleo and Roy in the series, it is evident that they have experienced the loss of their child, an event that took place off-screen. This tragedy becomes clear to us fairly soon.
“And they’re also trying to deal with Bruno, who’s now kind of living with them, and they both have to try and bond with Bruno, through obviously tragic circumstances, what happened to Sandy and etc in the previous series.”
He continued: “So, yeah, it’s quite heightened, but great to play – you need some dramatic tension and so as actors it’s much better to play something like that. And so it was a lovely challenge, actually.”
Meanwhile, Tapper said that it was “very different” for her coming back into the new season, as Cleo is at home for the beginning of the new run, coming to terms with the loss.
She said: “You find out very early on that she’s lost the baby, so that’s the sort of first image you have of her and of them is dealing with this really devastating loss.
“They were really poignant, moving scenes to film and interesting in another way, because I think for Cleo, her work is so integral to who she is as a person, and she’s on bereavement leave at the beginning of this series, and Roy has had to go back to work, so they’re separated in their grief as well.
Initially, she seemed incredibly lonely to me, much like I felt isolated myself when I first encountered her character. However, just as the show typically unfolds, she soon finds herself overwhelmed with numerous challenges amidst it all.
Alongside Simm and Tapper, Richie Campbell, Laura Elphinstone, Brad Morrison and Sam Hoare will all be back, while Craig Parkinson will not be returning as Norman Potting, having left the series at the end of season 4.
