A revolving cast of vicars helps DI Georgie Keating solve crimes.
PBS
Once upon a time, in a little town called Grantchester in 1954, a vicar named Sidney Chambers (James Norton) had just finished officiating a funeral when he was asked to look into the death to see if it was really a suicide. His investigation brought him face-to-face with the local

Summer technically doesn't officially start until mid-June, but in the world of television, the moment the Emmy eligibility window closes on May 31, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. PT, it might as well be the equinox, and the end of school rolled into one. It's

Since the beginning of Grantchester Season 8, when the production announced the planned departure of lead Tom Brittney, fans have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of Season 9, partly to see his exit from the series as Reverend William Davenport, and to meet his replacement, the Rev. Alphy Kotteram, played

Unforgotten continues to be a hit despite casting upheaval and a new DCI at the head of the cold case division. However, series creator Chris Lang has managed to keep the show humming along, and the arrival of DCI Jessie James (Sinead Keenan) helped the series ratings soar to even

And, while that particularly broadcast decision was perhaps an unintentional one, the pairing of the final two episodes of the season ultimately really works

Even if Masterpiece hadn't already announced that Tom Brittney would be leaving Grantchester at the end of this season, at this point, I think most of us would be expecting it. (Though, admittedly, I do appreciate the powers that be confirming that the show will continue with Whitstable

Will Davenport may have avoided going to prison for his role in the motorcycle accident that killed an innocent passerby, but if the third episode of Grantchester Season 8 is anything to go by, he certainly hasn't escaped punishment. In the wake of last week's devastating

The second episode of Grantchester Season 8 doesn't waste any time on set-up, immediately jumping back into events of last week's dramatic cliffhanger, namely, whether Will Davenport killed a man. And, despite the suspicions of some of us (read: me) that this twist might be some

Perhaps the smartest thing series creator Daisy Coulam did in adapting James Runchie's The Sidney Chambers Mysteries was rename it Grantchester. By naming the series after the village instead of the character, she took a series about a James Bond wannabe jazz-loving priest, and made it an ensemble

Grantchester is something of an oddity in the British mystery world — a character-focused drama in which the crime is often the least important thing happening in any given episode. Rather than set up elaborate red herrings to surprise viewers with the identity of who committed any given crime, the series

Almost a decade ago, the good Reverend Sidney Chambers (James Norton) was assigned to the vicarage of Grantchester, where he became BFFs with the local detective inspector Geordie Keating (Robson Green) and had three seasons of a will-they-or-wont-they romance with the posh Amanda Kendall (Morven Christie). However, in Season 3,

The world may have changed drastically since 2014, but a few things will always be true: Death, Taxes, and Endeavour's finale being followed by Grantchester's debut on Sunday nights on PBS in July. However, this will be the last year of that truth, as Endeavour'
