Season 2

It’s 1954 and having lain his wartime past to rest, Sidney Chambers is in a good place. He’s growing up, and trying to lead a 'good’ life. And with Amanda now married, he’s going to have to look elsewhere to find a wife. But neither of these things is going to be easy. When Sidney finds himself wrongly accused of a crime, his unmasking of the real culprit will send shockwaves through the entire village. Once again joining Sidney as he journeys into the dark world of murder is the affable but world-weary Detective Inspector Geordie Keating, the naive, but well-meaning curate Leonard Finch, and his austere and constantly disapproving housekeeper Mrs Maguire. As the story unfolds Sidney and Geordie will find their unlikely friendship tested to the limit. A vicar keeps people’s confidences. A copper is hell bent on exposing them. Will allegiance to the institutions they work for ultimately be Sidney and Geordie’s undoing?
