ITV has recommissioned ’50s detective drama Grantchester for a tenth series. A joint ITV / Masterpiece PBS in the US, the press release tells us:
Robson Green and Rishi Nair will star as DI Geordie Keating and Reverend Alphy Kottaram respectively. The ninth series in which Tom Brittney (Reverend Will Davenport) leaves, and newcomer Rishi Nair is welcomed into the cast, is expected to air on ITV in 2025.
This implies series 10 will air in 2026. In addition to Robson and Rishi, other returning cast members include Al Weaver as Leonard Finch, Tessa Peake-Jones as Mrs. C, Kacey Ainsworth as Cathy Keating, Oliver Dimsdale as Daniel Marlowe, Nick Brimble as Jack Chapman, Bradley Hall as DC Larry Peters and Melissa Johns as Miss Scott.
Despite my fondness for both detective drama and historical shows, never mind the location (Grantchester is a real place, just outside Cambridge), I’ve never watched. If I get urge, the first eight series are (inevitably) on ITVX.
