What’s This TV Show About?

A PBS period mystery drama, Grantchester stars James Norton, Robson Green, Tessa Peake-Jones, Tom Brittney, Al Weaver, Kacey Ainsworth, Oliver Dimsdale, Nick Brimble, Gary Beadle, Bradley Hall, Felix Scott, Skye Lucia Degruttola, and Jemma Redgrave. Set in the 1950s, in the Cambridgeshire village of Grantchester, the British detective series is based on James Runcie’s Grantchester Mysteries. The story centers on sleuthing Anglican vicar Sidney Chambers (Norton) and his partner in crime-fighting, Detective Inspector Geordie Keating (Green).
 

Telly’s Take

Because it’s supported by “Viewers like you,” rather than ads, we don’t have ratings when predicting whether PBS will cancel or renew Grantchester for season five. Fortunately for viewers like you, this time around, it was renewed through its fifth season, ahead of the US season four premiere on PBS. There’s no word that this will be a final season, but this show originates on UK’s ITV, and British programs often don’t run as long as American ones, so I’ll keep my eyes peeled for any news.
