Fresh off a first look at David Tennant<\/a>, a first glimpse of fellow former Doctor Jodie Whittaker alongside Bridgerton and one-time Doctor Who star Nicola Coughlan in Only Murders in the Building has emerged. The stars are among the impressive line-up<\/a> joining the latest season of the murder mystery show.<\/p>\n

Season five sees Charles, Oliver and Mabel (played by Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) head to London to investigate the murder of fellow podcaster Cinda Canning (Tina Fey).<\/p>\n

As filming continues, a few stills of Whittaker in character on set have dropped, the star donning a wig and gown as a barrister, appearing to rage on a phone call. Coughlan is also seen alongside the main trio, sporting a curly red wig.<\/p>\n

It comes after recent filming pics appeared to point to a flashback involving Cinda, while Tennant was seen in the role of a photographer.<\/p>\n

Other big stars joining the sleuths on their London adventure include comedy legend Jennifer Saunders, Bridgerton’s Simone Ashley, Willow’s Amar Chadha-Patel, Heartstopper’s Rhea Norwood, Bad Sisters’ Sharon Horgan, The Imitation Game’s Matthew Beard, Andor’s Kathryn Hunter, comedian Richard Ayoade and The Marlow Murder Club’s Adrian Lukis.<\/p>\n

Only Murders in the Building follows the exploits of the three central podcasters, and has largely been set in New York for most of its run since 2021.<\/p>\n

The most-recent season dropped last year, and attracted an 89% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> based on 66 reviews.<\/p>\n
