PBS Masterpiece schedule for July - October

You know me. Always looking for what mystery is coming up next. I almost forgot that Unforgotten starts this weekend.

Unforgotten Season 4 Sunday July 11 - August 15, 2021 9/8 c (I just discovered this during Season 3 but really liked it.)


Season 4 uncovers a cold case that involves four suspects who attended the same police training course in 1989.

Guilt Season 1: Sun. Sep. 5-12/2021 9/8 c 

It’s not the crime, it’s the cover-up” goes the old saying. But that didn’t
stop brothers Max and Jake from hiding their guilt after running into an
elderly pedestrian during an inebriated drive home from a wedding. Mark
Bonnar (Unforgotten) and Jamie Sives (To the Ends of the Earth) star as
Max and Jake in a darkly absorbing tale of rascality and deceit, on Guilt,
airing in four parts with back-to-back episodes on MASTERPIECE, Sundays, September 5 and 12 at 9/8c.

Guilt costars Ruth Bradley (Pursuit) as Angie, the niece and closest
relative of the hit-and-run victim, named Walter. Arriving in Edinburgh from her home in Chicago, Angie meets Max and Jake at Walter’s wake, where they have come to retrieve incriminating evidence. Angie and Jake hit it off, which complicates Max’s plan to escape justice.

Also appearing are Emun Elliott (The Paradise) as Kenny, Max’s alcoholic
private detective; Sian Brooke (Sherlock) as Claire, Max’s suspicious wife;
Moyo Akandé (The Hurricane Heist) as Claire’s more-than-gym buddy, Tina; Ellie Haddington (Foyle’s War) as Walter’s pathologically vigilant neighbor, Sheila; and Bill Paterson (Wives and Daughters) as Roy, a sinister mob boss in Edinburgh.

Granchester Season 6: Sun. Oct. 3 – Nov. 21, 9/8c (Loud clapping. One of my favorite)

Season 6 of Grantchester has Reverend Will Davenport continuing to push the boundaries of his duties while Leonard is caught up in a scandal and Detective Inspector Geordie Keating is faced with a moral dilemma.

Baptiste Season 2: Sun. Oct. 17 – Nov. 21, 10/9c (I saw season one and really liked it.)

 From award-winning producer Two Brothers Pictures (Fleabag), the second season of this spinoff of The Missing follows retired detective Julien Baptiste (Tchéky Karyo) as he delves into Budapest’s corrupt underworld to find a British Ambassador’s family who go missing on a skiing holiday in the Hungarian mountains. Ambassador Emma Chambers, played by Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve), is a character who is thrust into the crosshairs of Baptiste’s most complex case to date, as the detective navigates an untrustworthy Hungarian police force and international media interest as he hunts for her husband and two sons.

This is filmed in Amsterdam and I enjoy seeing the city. Anyone else just say "oh yeah...". Tom Hollander, above, was in Us on Masterpiece early this summer, which also takes place in Amsterdam. 

Looks like a great lineup! 

On to reading. Currently reading The Disappearing Act by Catherine Steadmand and listening to, The Fix. Amos Decker book 3 by David Baldacci.

  1. We used to watch PBS mysteries all the time but have gotten away from it recently. We need to check out these that you mention. I'm familiar with "Grantchester" but not the others.

  2. I liked Unforgotten even though I hadnt seen the first 2 seasons. Easy to pick up on. I like Baptiste too. Older retired, detective. Retired because he had a brain tumor but just can't stay out it.
