The biggest season yet. The longest episodes we’ve ever created. And a truly satisfying conclusion to the story of Red Valley. Arriving in your eardrums in 2026. Look out for more info in the future.
A Season 5 Update!
The final season of Red Valley sits in a quietly humming cryopod. The team at Kontinue Productions stands round it rubbing their chins, pushing buttons and eating pizza. Everything’s looking fine in there but best get a little update readout…

Love this. ❤️ Definitely had one of those phones too. 😋
Proudly introducing... Arthur Holmwood!
Arthur is a bit of a charmer with a bad habit of name-dropping (did he tell you about the time he met Princess Di...?) He is loyal, kind and makes excellent cheese on toast. Arthur is ride or die for his girlfriend, Lucy.

Can’t believe it’s been 5 years since we first launched Red Valley. Now here we are, deep into production on the 5th and final season. What a journey it’s been, and I’m so grateful for everyone who’s been a part of it. ❤️

To be honest, reviews everywhere are absolute gold for us. Apple, Spotify, Podchaser, your local newspaper… The list goes on! If you’re enjoying the show please shout it from the rooftops wherever you can! It really does make a difference. 🥰
Hope you’re all enjoying the new ep! It’s wonderful to read all your feedback.
If anyone’s got a moment it would be amazing if we could get some reviews on Apple Podcasts - it does make a difference to new folks finding us but it’s a neglected area. Huge thanks if you can help!
