Humax TV Tonight: Grantchester sees Will involved in a fatal Motorbike Incident

January 18, 2024

Grantchester is on ITV1 and ITX tonight at 9pm.

In the second episode of this new series, Will is involved in a fatal motorbike accident. He had promised Bonnie that he wouldn’t ride the bike at all and is devastated to realise that he is responsible for the death of a fellow man. He struggles to forgive himself.

DCI Elliot Wallace makes it his mission to ensure that Will is held accountable. This is personal. Geordie doesn’t believe that Will is guilty but his efforts to exonerate his friend stray dangerously into acting recklessly himself. Miss Scott and Larry question his integrity.

Geordie’s investigations uncover another body near the scene of the accident. A victim of assault. Could the two victims have known each other? Are the incidents related? And does this exonerate Will? Mrs C, Cathy, and Jack worry for Will’s state of mind, especially with Bonnie away.

Meanwhile, Elliot is determined to close down the Half Way house and Leonard and the residents face harassment from the police.

The eighth season of Grantchester will range from Speedway to spies, exploring the lives of invisible women and the very visible problems caused by Leonard’s new vocation which may, once again, find him battling the law.

Exploring faith, forgiveness, and redemption – this explosive series tests Will and Geordie to the limit.

Charlotte Ritchie (Ghosts) returns as Bonnie, alongside Tessa Peake-Jones as Mrs C, Al Weaver as Leonard Finch, Kacey Ainsworth as Cathy Keating, Oliver Dimsdale as Daniel Marlowe and Nick Brimble as Jack Chapman. Special guest actors for this series include Shaun Dingwall (Top Boy, Noughts & Crosses), Jeff Rawle (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Doc Martin) and Jemima Rooper (Gold Digger, The Girlfriend Experience).
