''Grantchester'' is a detective drama set in a 1950s Cambridgeshire village of Grantchester near Cambridge, where local Anglican vicar Sidney Chambers (James Norton) develops a sideline in sleuthing—with the initially reluctant help of grumpy Detective Inspector Geordie Keating (Robson Green). The series is based on ''The Grantchester Mysteries'' books written by James Runcie. The first television series is based on stories from the first of the books, ''Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death''. ==Characters== *Sidney Chambers is an Anglican priest (and former Scots Guards officer) who finds himself involved in solving crimes, assisting the overworked Detective Inspector Keating. They forge an unlikely partnership with gruff Keating's methodical approach to policing complementing Chambers' more intuitive techniques of coaxing information from witnesses and suspects. *Geordie Keating also fought in the Second World War and does not suffer fools gladly. He understands what motivates people to kill. He is married to Cathy and they have four children. *Amanda Kendall is the daughter of a wealthy society father. Her mother died a few years before and she has two younger brothers. She has known Chambers a long time, having gone to school with Chambers' sister, Jennifer; the two are in love but her father has arranged a marriage for her and she cannot refuse. She works at the National Gallery in London. *Mrs. Maguire is Chambers' housekeeper and well versed in the Bible. She has suffered numerous personal losses in life and makes her bitterness and anger no secret. Chambers is the first young vicar she has looked after and she treats him like a son, trying to boss him about. *Leonard Finch is Chambers' curate. Naïve and unworldly, he was a teacher at a girls' school, and studied theology and joined the church. *Hildegard Staunton is a young German widow who develops a close romantic relationship with Sidney. *Guy Hopkins is Amanda's aristocratic fiancé who is wary of Amanda and Sidney's closeness. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Grantchester (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
