The cast of BBC's Life on Mars have all gone on to have fruitful TV careers since the show ended, with several becoming household names.
Life on Mars was a much-loved British TV series and often described as one of the biggest shows in the last two decades. Following its finale in 2007, many of its cast members have gone on to achieve stardom in television and film.
Sadly for fans, series creator Matthew Graham confirmed in June 2023 that the project had effectively been cancelled, but fans were given a sneak peek of the opening episode at a live script reading. On a personal note, alongside Philip Glenister on DNA Journey, Simm unearthed a family secret. He unexpectedly discovered that Ronald Simm wasn't his biological father, but a man named Terry Smith, who had sadly died, yet shared a history in the same working men's clubs with Ronald.
In 2019, Glenister took on a presenting role in the 'true' crime show What the Killer Did Next. More recently, he appeared in Steeltown Murders, Foundation and After the Flood. Following Ashes to Ashes, she starred in other TV dramas including the hit BBC drama Line of Duty as the disgraced police officer Lindsay Denton. She later starred in another drama from the same writer , Bodyguard, alongside actor Richard Madden.
Dean Andrews - DC Ray Carling Dean Andrews portrayed unequivocal detective Ray Carling in Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, serving as Hunt's right-hand man and resenting DI Tyler. After his stint as DC Carling, Dean secured roles in Channel 4 drama No Angels and BBC's Waterloo Road. Daniel Mays - DCI Jim Keats Daniel Mays played DCI Jim Keats, who was sent to investigate Gene Hunt and his team's activities to dismantle the unit. However, it was later revealed that Jim Keats was a spiteful spirit aiming to drag the squad to hell.
