Shows Like Grantchester

Father Brown

Swap Grantchester's vicar for a Cotswolds priest, and Cambridgeshire for the 1950s countryside — the closest match here for a clergyman with an unshakeable moral compass and a gift for solving murders.

All Creatures Great and Small

A young vet finds his footing in a 1930s Yorkshire Dales practice, surrounded by the same kind of found-family warmth that made Grantchester's Cambridgeshire vicarage feel like home.

Call the Midwife

Nurse-midwives and nuns serve London's East End from the late 1950s onward — a different setting than Grantchester, but the same faith-adjacent community warmth balanced against real emotional weight.

Foyle's War

A laconic detective investigates crimes on the WWII home front in a quiet English coastal town — more serious than Grantchester, but built from the same rich period detail and moral complexity.

Miss Scarlet

Victorian London's first female private detective solves cases alongside a Scotland Yard inspector who's also her oldest friend — the same charged, will-they-won't-they chemistry that anchored Grantchester's Sidney and Amanda.

Ending with its seventh season in 2026.

Endeavour

The young Endeavour Morse investigates murders across 1960s Oxford — a moodier, more melancholic period mystery, but sharing Grantchester's attention to period detail and a lead quietly wrestling with his own convictions.

Sanditon

Less mystery than romance, but the same Masterpiece Sunday-night slot and the same picturesque English seaside charm — a good pick for the parts of Grantchester that were really about the relationships.

This one's ended — three series, complete.
