Period Drama 'Jamaica Inn' Will Air on PBS This Winter

Fun fact: The 2014 period drama Jamaica Inn was one of former Downton Abbey star Jessica Brown Findlay's first major roles after leaving Highclere Castle behind (RIP, Lady Sybil), yet the three-part series has never actually aired in America.

Sure, motivated viewers can track it down online: it's been available to PBS Passport members since June and can also be streamed as part of the Masterpiece subchannel on Prime Video. But somehow, despite featuring one of the buzziest actresses of the moment at the time of its release and being based on a novel by popular author Daphne du Maurier, it just never managed to find a broadcast home here in the United States.

Now, nearly a decade after its initial U.K. premiere, when the three-part will finally arrive on PBS stations nationwide. (Though, as we'll get to in a minute, you'll have to do a little homework to figure out precisely when your local station might air it.)
