We are delighted to be bringing Davis and Bart back in what I’m sure will be their toughest test yet. This Aberdeen set detective drama has attracted new audiences to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ and beyond and we look forward to the sparkling granite of the city shining on screen once more.
The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ has announced the return of Granite Harbour for a third series. Made by LA Productions, it will once again bring together acting talents Romario Simpson (Django, Riches, Small Axe) and Hannah Donaldson (Crime, Payback, The Crown) as crime duo Lindo and Bart for the Aberdeen-set drama.
The new three-part series, which will film in Aberdeenshire and Glasgow later this year, is a co-commission between ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ iPlayer, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scotland and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ One. It will be written by Rob Fraser (Tell Me Everything, Tin Star), Ciara Conway (Whistable Pearl, Holby City) and Writers Guild of Great Britain award-winner Jillian Mannion (River City, Death in Paradise).
The third series sees Sgt Davis Lindo (Romario Simpson) and DCI Lara ‘Bart’ Bartlett (Hannah Donaldson) investigate a suspicious death in the travelling community at an estate on the outskirts of Aberdeen. As the investigation gets underway, Lindo and Bart must navigate a complicated cross-community romance which uncovers a complex past.
Gavin Smith, Executive Producer, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scotland says: “We are delighted to be bringing Davis and Bart back in what I’m sure will be their toughest test yet. This Aberdeen set detective drama has attracted new audiences to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ and beyond and we look forward to the sparkling granite of the city shining on screen once more.â€
Colin McKeown, LA Productions says: “It's an absolute pleasure to be asked by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ to produce a further series of Granite Harbour, to build on the character development we've created so far with our stellar cast. Scotland, and in particular, Aberdeen is a real gem and a place that we, as filmmakers, have really come to love. Our desire is to carry on our journey with our audience and let them share and enjoy what series three of Granite Harbour has to offer.â€
Granite Harbour (3x60) was commissioned by Louise Thornton, Head of Commissioning, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scotland and Lindsay Salt, Director of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Drama. The executive producers are Gavin Smith for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scotland, Gaynor Holmes for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ One and Colin McKeown for LA Productions with Donna Molloy (Compulsion, Anthony) producing the third series. Granite Harbour is made by LA Productions for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scotland.
