Acorn TV August 2023: Highlights

The Chelsea Detective Season 2 (Acorn TV Original) – New Season Premieres Monday, August 28

Detective Inspector Max Arnold (Adrian Scarborough, Killing Eve) and the team have new cases to look into in the second season of the four 90-minute episodes as Detective Sergeant Layla Walsh (Vanessa Emme, Dublin Murders) transfers to Chelsea CID from Exeter. Although Layla is not naive or wide-eyed about life in London, she still occasionally rolls her eyes at the worst excesses in Chelsea because she is an outsider.

She is passionate about her work and gives the group a clear "let's go!" attitude. Layla isn't afraid to ask direct questions and to speak her mind, whether she's interrogating a person of interest or the team's investigative process.

This season, DI Max Arnold will have to deal with four brand-new mysteries. Olivia joins Ashley, Jess, Connor, and Astrid in their return to take us inside Chelsea's glitzy, fashionable world and reveal the darkness that lurks there.

The team explores the world of art, opulent retirement living, rowing, psychotherapy, tailoring, and dating in season two.

The Chelsea Detective, DI Max Arnold, is back and bringing Chelsea's powerful and wealthy people to justice. Only on Acorn TV, Season 2 debuts on August 28!

The four feature-length episodes were written by Glen Laker (Vera, Prime Suspect), Peter Fincham, Liz Lake (Riviera, Call the Midwife), and Laura Poliakoff (Devils) and were created and executive produced by Emmy Award-winning Peter Fincham (The Lost Prince, Smack the Pony, I'm Alan Partridge).

Ella Kelly (Death in Paradise, Midsomer Murders) is the show's producer. The films' directors are Sarah Esdaile (Call the Midwife) and Richard Signy (Death in Paradise, Silent Witness).

Expectation, a BBC Studios-backed independent production company, Germany's ZDF, and Acorn TV's Acorn Media Enterprises are the producers of The Chelsea Detective. The show's exclusive home in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand is Acorn TV.

The series is distributed internationally by BBC Studios, and this month at MIPCOM 2022, the show will be presented to international buyers for the first time.

‘Granite Harbour’

Granite Harbour

Following agreements with Eccho Rights, BritBox International in the US and Canada and Acorn TV in Australia and New Zealand have acquired the British crime drama Granite Harbour.

The series, which was created by LA Productions in collaboration with Dopamine, premiered on BBC1 and BBC Scotland in December 2022.

The three-part (or two-part) drama centers on a rookie Aberdeen police officer who is thrown into the fire on his first day of work when a prominent figure is discovered dead.

The program will debut on BritBox on August 1 in the US and Canada before coming to Acorn TV later that season.

"Viewers in the UK loved this fish out of water story, and we can't wait to share it with audiences in North America, Australia, and New Zealand," declared Lucy Roberts, director of sales at Eccho Rights.
