Grantchester Season 10 wrapped up with 8 episodes, but the show will be returning for another season, much to the delight of the fans. Season 11 marks the final season of the show, and some of the key characters of the series will be reprising their roles in the upcoming season!
The British detective drama is based on a collection of short stories by James Robert Runcie, titled The Grantchester Mysteries, and is set in the 1950s in the village of Grantchester, Cambridgeshire.
Executive Producer Emma Kingsman-Lloyd commented on the final season of the show and said,
“We are absolutely delighted to be returning for another series of Grantchester adventures. After eleven incredible series, and the most wonderful experiences with a fantastic cast and crew, we have decided to bid a very fond farewell to our favourite crime fighting duo. Audiences are in for the most ambitious and thrilling series yet — Geordie and Alphy are going out with a bang!”
Her words definitely sound promising, and while fans are eagerly waiting for the next and final season, here is a glimpse into the cast and characters who will be returning in Grantchester Season 11.
