If there's a shocking death and a new female character, that seems like it's Emily who dies. I've grown very fond of her so that's a sad thought. But PM did say they were focusing more on the core characters in S9, prehaps he actually meant the original characters, that would again point to the death possibly being Emily. I'm not sure which other death is feasible or would have a shocking impact. It's possible Brackenreid may be it, but I don't see William being the Inspector. And I can't see the actor wanting to leave. William can't be killed off, Julia would never be killed off, neither would George. I don't think it's Higgins as we need other constables, and he's always been secondary main cast. It could be Jackson, something violent that would effect Station House no4. I'm thinking Emily or Jackson. The other factor for it NOT being Brackenreid is he is the only core character from England, so ITV would probably want to keep Thomas Craig in the cast.

As long as he wants to stay. Apparently he was perturbed at the thought his character may be killed off after the S7 cliffhanger so unless his situation has changed I doubt it's Brackenreid. I HOPE it isn't Brackenreid. I don't see William as the Inspector either as it would lessen his involvement in the cases.

I have been digging for more info on this new character and found this interview on youtube. She gives some insight on her character without spoiling too much. Ideas?

She is definitely going to be a completely different character with her own story arc woven into the ongoing plotline. I strongly suspect this will have a great deal to do with prejudice as well as the suffragist movement. Hodge has suggested that "Rebecca" might be hired as a maid/housekeeper in the Murdoch/Ogden household. This makes a lot of sense to me as the opportunities for seamless interactions are endless. Employing a bright young black woman would be completely within Julia's character.

Just saw the tweet! And it looks like Emily decided against going to England! Apparently so did Lillian too.... WOOT! And is it possible she came back after some time there? That would make sense to me: Lillian picking up some skillz from the Pankhurts!

That might be historically correct, but would the politics of today allow the first *regular* black character to be hired as the maid?

I hope you guys are right about this!

I'm thinking Emily or Jackson. Emily's death seems to be predicted annually. However' PM doesn't see her as a peripheral character: she's his creation. I hate to say it, but I think it would have to be Edna. Otherwise George is on track to be married too early: for the sake of the structure of the show he kind of has to be a perma-bachelor. But he would be a cad if he never married Edna after he just proposed. Edna's death might give George additional reason for "penance-mode" in remaining a constable, too.

Plus, I'm holding on to PM saying here I believe that there was no end in sight. It was in one of the threads.... Also, I feel like someone would have trumpeted that it was MM's final-they typically announce well in advance when it's the end for a popular, long-running show. I'm going to be calm and think that they try to make it to an even 10. An even ten is definitely what I'm hoping for Bones just got renewed for its 11th season, and MM has run mostly HALF seasons (by American standards): we can certainly hope for more.
