Four parts starting on 28th ~August at 8 p.m.
Starring Adrian Dunbar- extract from a Times interview with the actor

Ridley treads a far more conventional path than Line of Duty, with a weekly whodunnit set in beautiful rural Lancashire. “It’s a genre where Vera is the gold standard. It’s for a Sunday-night audience where the whole family can watch and you can’t escape certain tropes. But I’m hoping we’ve hit a sort of a sweet spot where it’s neither too cerebral nor too obvious. And once you’ve put in certain things you have licence to add certain others.”

He’s referring to the unexpected twist of Ridley being a talented singer whose renditions (self-accompanied on the piano) of songs by the Sheffield-born singer-songwriter Richard Hawley feature in each episode. “I asked for a musical element, I’ve always liked the idea of a singing detective.”
