Today (Sunday, 15th September), the crime drama “Van der Valk” resumes its fourth season in the United States on PBS Masterpiece. In the UK, it’s currently airing on ITV1 and ITVX.
Sadly, there’s currently no UK release date, but here’s hoping it lands soon.
In the Amsterdam-set series, Marc Warren and Maimie McCoy reprise their roles as Detective Piet Van der Valk and Lucienne Hassell, respectively, and they find themselves dealing with a busy caseload once more.
Piet van der Valk and his loyal colleagues return to Amsterdam, ready for a brand-new season filled with exhilarating action that will leave your heart racing like never before,” is a rephrased version of the original sentence.
Besides handling murder investigations, Van der Valk also grapples with an old romance reappearing and helping a cherished colleague come to terms with their own mortality.
“Can their team – rather, their found family – survive what life throws at them next?”
Curious about who joins the scene in Van der Valk’s fourth season? Let me give you the lowdown on the key characters you’ll see gracing your screen.

Marc Warren as Piet van der Valk
What is the role of Piet Van der Valk? He is a Commissaris within the Dutch police force, admired by his colleagues. His affinity towards Amsterdam runs deep as he resides on a boat and is often characterized as confident, street-wise, instinctive, and uncompromising. Marc Warren describes him as an ordinary man’s character.
He reflects the energies of Amsterdam: its tolerance and liberalism. He can be a loner, and at times he might seem a little taciturn or moody but he has some stuff going on that we find out about as the show goes on.”
Has Marc Warren appeared in any other notable roles aside from Hustle, Band of Brothers, and The Good Wife?
Apart from these roles, he has appeared as the villainous Samuel Parker in Beecham House, portrayed Pete Mayfield in the Netflix series Safe, and a host of other notable characters such as Elton Pope on Doctor Who, State of Play, The Vice, Flack, The Musketeers, Mad Dogs, and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
Maimie McCoy plays Lucienne Hassell
As a movie buff, I’d put it like this: In the world of crime-solving depicted on screen, I often find myself drawn to the character of Inspector Van der Valk. His right-hand woman is none other than Lucienne Hassell – a steadfast ally who stands by his side through the fiercest tempests. She’s the embodiment of tranquility and composure, a beacon of reason amid chaos, grounded, and rooted in reality.
Has Maimie McCoy appeared in any other roles besides The Musketeers and Van Der Valk?
Apart from her roles in White House Farm (as Nancy Raynott), All Creatures Great and Small (as Dorothy), A Confession (DC Tracy Joyce) and London Kills (Grace Harper), you might have recognized her from DCI Banks, where she portrayed Tamsin Richards back in 2016.
Emma Fielding plays Julia Dahlman
Who is Julia Dahlman? She is the superior officer of Van der Valk, often referred to as the Chief Commissar. Four years prior to the series commencement, she sustained injuries that still affect her physically. Dahlman is described as a firm yet gentle leader, a politician, and a dedicated supporter of the team.
Apart from her Oliver-nominated theatre roles, Emma Fielding has also made quite a few appearances on television. She’s played Nicolette in Les Misérables, the voice of Kisar in Doctor Who’s Demons of the Punjab, Amy Hollis in Unforgotten, and many more. Some other notable TV series she’s been featured in include Close to the Enemy, Dark Angel, Years and Years, Cranford, and Sanditon.
Darrell D’Silva plays Hendrik Davis
What is the identity of Hendrik Davis? He can be described as a skilled pathologist with a rough exterior, known for his colorful language, adventurous lifestyle, and frequent drinking, yet he consistently delivers results.
Is there anything else that Darrell D’Silva is known for on television or in movies? This accomplished actor, who’s a part of the prestigious Royal Shakespeare Company, has graced our screens with his presence in shows like Informer, Strike Back, Game of Thrones, Atlanta, and Domina. Additionally, he has acted in films such as Official Secrets, Wrath of Man, and Marlowe.
Azan Ahmed plays Eddie Suleman
As a film enthusiast, allow me to share that there’s a newcomer to our team, introduced in season 3. His name is Eddie Suleman, and if Ahmed’s description holds true, he seems intuitive, impulsive, and driven.
Has Azan Ahmed appeared in anything other than Doctors, Hope Street, Mood, and the movie What’s Love Got to Do with It?
Kim Riedle plays Kalie Tenkers
Who is Kim Riedle? A police sergeant and Van der Valk’s ex-girlfriend.
Beyond her role in German soap Verbotene Liebe, Kalie Tenkers has also been featured in the Netflix German thriller titled “Dear Child.
