In Grantchester season 3 episode 1, the small English village is still being rocked by a series of murders. However, this time around, it seems that there is a more personal motive behind the killings. When a vicar is found dead, everyone in the town is in shock. Sidney Chambers, a local vicar and amateur detective, tirelessly works to solve the case, even as his own personal life becomes more and more complicated.
Throughout the episode, we see Sidney struggling with his own demons. He is still in love with Amanda, a woman he cannot have. In the hopes of moving on, Sidney enters into a new relationship with someone else. However, as much as he tries to hide his feelings, it is clear that he is still pining for Amanda.
Meanwhile, the case of the murdered vicar becomes increasingly complex. While at first, it seems that his death was a result of a botched burglary gone wrong, Sidney becomes convinced that there is more to the case than meets the eye. With the help of his friend and mentor, Inspector Geordie Keating, Sidney begins to delve deeper into the life of the murdered vicar.
As the investigation progresses, new suspects are introduced. A shadowy figure is spotted lurking around the vicar's house on the day of his murder, and a number of townspeople come under suspicion. Sidney and Geordie work tirelessly to piece together the clues, but it seems that the more they uncover, the more confusing the case becomes.
The episode is filled with tension and drama as Sidney struggles to balance his own personal life with his duties as a detective. We see him struggling to make sense of his feelings for Amanda, even as he tries to move forward with someone new. Meanwhile, his investigation into the murder becomes increasingly complicated, with new twists and turns at every corner.
