Season overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Create a JSON object for "Unforgotten" Season 6.
Keys: overview (160-220 words), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown/asterisks/headings/bullets in the prose. Output valid JSON only.
Input: TMDB Season Synopsis and 5 Sources.
Synopsis: Suspected human remains uncovered on Whitney Marsh. Jess and Sunny called to scene. Dr. Balcombe's analysis: remains are relatively recent and dismembered. Jess and Sunny search for other body parts.
Source 1: Series title "Unforgotten" (2015). Genre: Drama, Crime, Mystery. Detectives Cassie Stuart and Sunny Khan investigate historic cold cases involving missing persons.
Source 2: Cast/crew info.
Source 3: British crime drama, aired on ITV on 8 October 2015. Created/written by Chris Lang, directed by Andy Wilson.
Source 4: Cast includes Sanjeev Bhaskar, Carolina Main, Jordan Long.
Source 5: Cast includes Nicola Walker, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Sinéad Keenan, Peter Egan.
Goal: 160-220 words.
Content: Season 6 involves Jess and Sunny investigating suspected human remains found on Whitney Marsh. Dr. Balcombe's analysis indicates the remains are relatively recent and were found in a dismembered state. This insight leads Jess and Sunny to intensify their search under the belief that other body parts may be located nearby.
Problem: The provided synopsis is very short. I cannot reach 160-220 words without inventing details.
Constraint Check: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. ... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
Conflict: The user asks for 160-220 words, but the source material only provides about 50 words of plot.
Resolution: I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "omit rather than guess" instructions over the word count instruction if the word count requires invention. However, I can expand on the context provided in the sources (series genre, creators, general premise) to try to get closer, but I cannot invent plot.
Drafting Overview:
The British crime drama series Unforgotten, created and written by Chris Lang and directed
