It's 1953, and Sidney Chambers is vicar of Grantchester, a village just outside Cambridge. Sidney's life is a quiet life - right up until the moment that murder comes his way. Pushed into the dangerous world of lies, betrayal and murder, Sidney quickly finds that his insight into the human condition, and the natural trust that he engenders in people, means that he excels in his new position as 'detective'. Joining Sidney as he journeys into this dark world is the affable but world-weary Detective Inspector Geordie Keating, the naive, but well-meaning curate Leonard Finch, and his austere and constantly disapproving housekeeper Mrs Maguire. But crime isn't the only matter that occupies Sidney. He's smitten with the witty, beautiful, Amanda, but could high society Amanda ever be allowed to marry a lowly country vicar? Can you still see the best in people when the world of murder asks you to see the worst?

I'm a big fan of British series, but James Norton is a poor actor. He seems to have two major moods. He's either the lighthearted and optimistic vicar or the morose, self-pitying and alcoholic depressive. The latter seems more true to the character which makes his religious life seem like an act. With a more skilled actor, these two aspects might have been meshed together to show an interesting and complex human being, but Norton doesn't have the skill to portray such a man. There is very little subtlety and nuance in his performances, so he is always unconvincing. But he is physically a beautiful man which makes him watchable.
There is another issue for me and that is the subplot of Grantchester's romance with his childhood friend who is married. To me, this is like fingernails on a blackboard. This attachment doesn't fit into his life, nor does it fit the show. Whenever there's a scene with her I just want to make her go away. This actress as well is mediocre and it's hard to believe that she's the focus of such intense passion. She's kind of a blah human being.
For me, the saving grace of this show is Robson Green. He's a magical actor who's been wonderful in every show he's been in (my favorite being "Wire in the Blood"). Without him, this show wouldn't be worth watching.
