It’s always a pleasure to watch John Simm on TV, and now he stars in new ITV crime drama, Grace.
Acclaimed screenwriter and Endeavour creator, Russell Lewis, has adapted international bestseller Peter James’, Dead Simple, his debut novel from the award-winning Roy Grace series.
Simm takes the lead role of the tenacious Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, a hard-working police officer who has given his life to the job.
When a local property developer whose company is enjoying a raft of recent successes goes missing on a stag night, Roy is approached by his old friend and colleague, Detective Sergeant Glenn Branson who is investigating the case. Something feels off about the whole thing and Branson comes to Grace for advice, determined to pull him from the gloom of his office and make use of his brilliant instincts. Grace joins Branson’s investigation to advise.
