The series starts this Autumn on BBC One
TRAILER FOR LYNLEY TV SERIES
BritBox has sent us the first trailer for their four part adaptation of Elizabeth George's Inspector LYNLEY novels in which our dearest Leo Suter takes the lead role with Sofia Barclay as DS Barbara Havers. Lynley is a brilliant detective who's something of an outsider because of his aristocratic upbringing. Havers comes from a working class background, and she's more of an instinct-driven maverick. Though they have little in common and they don't always get along, they learn to work together to help get justice for victims of horrific crimes. Check out the first trailer below the post and tell us what you think, will you be tuning in? In other TV news today, Gilded Age has been renewed for season 4 and Bergerac and Eric Banas Untamed for season 2.
 
WHO IS IN THE CAST? 
 Daniel Mays will play DCI Brian Nies, the astute, suspicious Senior Detective at Three Counties Major Incident Team, whose aversion to Lynley is partly born of his own insecurities about class and partly because he knows he’s no longer the smartest person in the room. Niamh Walsh stars as Helen Clyde, an estate agent and Lynley’s former Oxford classmate whose romance with Lynley is sparked when their paths fatefully cross on a case; Michael Workeye as tech specialist Tony Bekele; and Joshua Sher as forensic scientist, Simon St. James.
