VERA is now in its' 5th TV season on ITV in the United Kingdom. Detective Chief Inspector (DCI) Vera Stanhope (Brenda Blethyn) investigates homicide in Northumberland. Her right hand man & surrogate son is Detective Sergeant (DS) Joe Ashworth (David Leon). He left the TV show after 4 TV seasons.
I've been binge watching over at HULU. It is a stylish crime drama focusing on Vera who is obsessed with her job. It is based on the crime novels by Ann Cleeves & it shows because of the deep & rich characters. Each episode clocks in around 1 hour & 40 minutes & there are 4 episodes in a TV season.
You will "Never" figure out who the killer is in each episode. Never..., You can only watch Vera figure it out for you & she is a very good detective. I am stumped in each episode. I'm watching Season 3 right now over at HULU. Season 4 & 5 are airing on your local PBS station. (KCET in Albuquerque).
