Grantchester, the period drama about crime solving Anglican priest Sidney Chambers and his partner Inspector Geordie Keating returns this weekend with Christmas in June.

Geordie: Sometimes, Sidney, I really do think that you must have God on your side.
Sidney: I certainly hope so. Another round, Inspector?
- Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death, pg 392

"What is Grantchester?" a friend of mine asked recently. Even as a PBS watcher, the mystery series had escaped her notice. But have no fear, those who have missed out on ITV's latest mystery series, based on the short stories by James Runcie. Grantchester returns this coming Sunday for it's third round of episodes, and now is the perfect time to pick it up.
