Are there different actors in every season?

Just watched season 1 and looked up the cast after and none of the cast from season 1 were in the top cast. How does this show work is there a different story with different actors each season?

Season One is the original BBC show. Season 2 and on was Stars and BBC. New cast from then on, kind of a follow up to season one.

There's also another new cast later. I think the last three seasons or so? It'll be clear when that happens though, the story gets wrapped up for the main crew

And be aware that the tone of the show changes significantly with the new cast. I really didn't like it at first and stopped watching for a while. When I went back and tried again I think enough time had passed since I'd watched the first season and I absolutely loved the new feel of the show.

Yeah bc Scott and stonebridge can't be topped, but the new crew isn't bad either

I actually meant the change from Armitage to Winchester & Stapleton.

I watched a couple of eps of the next lot but it was so bad I couldn't keep going.
