It\u2019s been a while since we last took a trip to the Californian town of Virgin River<\/a>, but the romantic drama finally returns to our screens for season 4 tomorrow \u2013 and there\u2019s a lot to catch up on!<\/p>\n

From Mel\u2019s bombshell pregnancy news to Brady being arrested for shooting Jack<\/a>, the season 3 finale left fans with a number of big questions and, judging by the season 4 trailer, we may finally get some answers.<\/p>\n

While Mel \u2013 played by lead Alexandra Breckenridge \u2013 is unsure who the father of her unborn baby is, with the options being her boyfriend Jack (Martin Henderson) or her late husband Mark, Jack\u2019s own dad arrives in Virgin River to complicate the situation, with Keith MacKechnie playing the brand new character.<\/p>\n

As new characters go, there\u2019s a new doctor in town with Dr Cameron Hayek (Mark Ghanim\u00e9) taking an interest in Mel, but not to worry \u2013 the town\u2019s old doctor Doc will be back with Hope (Annette O\u2019Toole), who was mostly missing from season 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Read on for everything you need to know about the Virgin River cast, including which stars are joining for season 4.<\/p>
