GRANTCHESTER

NEW THURSDAY, 9 PM, ITV1 DRAMA (BOX SET, ITVX)

The finale of the last.series of Grantchester delighted fans with a surprise twist as restless Reverend Will Davenport tied the knot with DI Geordie Keating's widowed niece, Bonnie Evans.

As the popular ITV1 period drama returns for a new six-part run this week, there's further cause for celebration as the crime-solving vicar (played by Tom Brittney) and his lovely wife (Charlotte Ritchie) are expecting their first child together! But, sadly, Will's perfect world is about to be turned upside down by a tragic accident that will send him on a dangerous downward spiral...

Life isn't all that rosy for his good friend Geordie (Robson Green) either, after the dedicated cop receives some shock news that is set to impact his job.

With them both struggling in unfamiliar territory, can they find a way to help each other navigate these troubled waters while still unravelling murderous mysteries? Here, Robson, 59, gives us his take on what lies ahead...

So, what's happening as we return to Grantchester for this eighth series?

We start with a case where a biker is found dead in a field after a charity motorbike race. Geordie and Will both realise this is a murder and not an accident.

Then Will's involved in a tragedy where somebody loses their life and he has a big personal crisis.

Geordie desperately wants to exonerate Will and goes to great lengths to help him.

Geordie is battling problems of his own, too, isn't he?

Yes, Geordie's big story arc is that his boss, DCI Elliot Wallace [Michael D. Xavier], is trying to edge him out of the force. Geordie's distraught. It's a defining moment for him when he realises his shelf life has expired.
