Returning: A Town and Country Murder

Never mind Midsomer Murders and Grantchester, A Town and Country Murder is the real thing.

This UK series on the CI network investigates all things grisly in quaint British villages.

Season 3 begins in mid September.

The picturesque market towns and villages of rural Britain are famed for their charm and enjoyed by locals who appreciate the slower pace of life. But the prettiest parts of the land harbour a darker side and are the back drop to some of the most terrible murders of recent times. A Town & Country Murder retells these shocking crimes, from execution murders by complete strangers, to crimes of passion by jealous lovers. Examine all aspects of the case from the discovery of the body through each twist and turn of the investigation until the perpetrator is finally banged to rights. Not only do we hear from the detectives who cracked the cases and the bereaved families who lost a loved one but also from local people who reveal how the murder has changed their tight knit communities forever. A Town & Country Murder reveals the truth behind an idyllic facade; things are often not quite what they seem…

Tuesdays from September 13 at 9.30pm on CI.
