Season 3announced, no date yet
All at once, 10 episodes, last aired Wed, 7 Jan 2026
Is it for me?
A gentle, cosy-leaning crime drama for people who like the odd-couple pairing more than the puzzle; tight plotting is not the point. Laura Fraser plays Metcalf, who follows Patience to a meeting for autistic adults, a turn that deepens their bond. The city looks like a postcard, with Lendal Bridge and Monkgate Bar in the opening shots.
Before you start
Series 1 opens with a two-part case, then moves to single episodes; series 2 has no two-parters.
2 seasons, 14 episodes, 47 min each, about 11 hours so far
