1 Episode One
3/2/16
It's 1954, and just outside the Cambridgeshire village of Grantchester, local vicar Sidney Chambers (James Norton) is enjoying a glorious picnic with his best friend, DI Geordie Keating (Robson Green), Geordie's family, Sidney's shy curate Leonard Finch (Al Weaver) and their grumpy housekeeper Mrs Maguire (Tessa Peake-Jones). Walking home, their happy day is cut short when DC Phil Wilkinson (Lorne Macfadyen) arrests Sidney - and the charge is sexual assault.
2 Episode Two
3/9/16
Geordie and Cathy (Kacey Ainsworth) are on a mission to find Sidney a girlfriend - but nobody seems to be good enough for the choosy vicar. Geordie's plans are further thwarted when Sidney's old flame, Amanda Hopkins (Morven Christie) arrives in Grantchester while her husband is away on business.
3 Episode Three
3/16/16
After thoroughly modern Margaret's visits to the vicarage start leaving Mrs Maguire's nose out of joint, Sidney is hoping for a distraction - which arrives in the unexpected form of a young man sat alone in the church and covered in blood. The man is Theo Graham (Jeremy Neumark Jones), and he confesses to Sidney and Geordie that he attacked and killed his landlord, Eric Whitaker (Michael Shaeffer). But when Sidney and Geordie call on the Boarding House that Eric ran, they find the alleged victim alive and well, along with his teenage daughter Joan (Rosie Day) and her step-mother Vivian (Liz White).
4 Episode Four
3/23/16
As the trial of local teen Gary Bell approaches, Sidney and Geordie find themselves at loggerheads regarding his guilt - not even building a go-kart together can get them to see eye to eye. Sidney's mind is taken off these matters when he finds the anxious Reggie Lawson (Paul Nicholls) at the graveside of his dead wife, Anna. Convinced that she still haunts his home and stable yards following her suicide he implores Sidney to come to his estate, Kingsbrook and perform an exorcism for him.
5 Episode Five
3/30/16
Sidney is the only friend Gary Bell has left as he waits for news about whether he will be offered a reprieve. Sidney is determined that whatever his fate, he will stand by his side - even if certain members of the village object. Meanwhile, Geordie and Phil visit the hospital where Rita Jones (Tanya Franks) recovers from the latest beating dealt out by her violent husband Eddie (Matthew Jure). But with her children needing a breadwinner, Rita refuses to press charges. Rita's eldest son lets the two detectives into the hovel they call a family home. When they discover some recently stolen goods, it appears they finally have all they need to collar Eddie. But the man doesn't go quietly, fighting with Phil and winding up Geordie as he's carted to the cells. The next morning, Geordie's wife Cathy calls on Sidney: Geordie didn't come home last night. When Sidney arrives at the station he finds his friend with his knuckles bruised, and Eddie, dead on a stretcher.
6 Episode Six
4/4/16
Sidney Chambers has given up. Following the difficult events of the past few weeks, he is drinking like never before, and even worse, seems to have entirely stopped caring about his responsibilities as a clergyman. With Mrs Maguire and Leonard both deeply worried about him, it is left to them to try and find a way to help their friend before it is too late. But with Geordie and Amanda seemingly unwilling to help, and with an attempt to remove Sidney from the vicarage seemingly gathering strength, things are not looking good.

Everything about Grantchester is enigmatic! It is a series that you can easily understand and yet there is an emotional attribute to the character, Sidney, which leaves the audience puzzled and eager to learn more. A fantastic series and definitely worth buying every episode! :-)
