Granite Harbour season 2: where to watch, recaps, trailer and everything we know
Granite Harbour season 2 follows an investigation into the origins of a new crime wave.
Granite Harbour season 2 returned with two new cases, as we once again follow Lindo and Bart as they investigate a new series of crimes in the area.
Granite Harbour season 1 was a BBC iPlayer favourite with 7.6 million streams, so it's hardly surprising that it's back for another round.
Speaking about the series' return, Gavin Smith, Executive Producer, BBC Scotland said: "We’re delighted to have Granite Harbour return to BBC Scotland and can’t wait to see Aberdeen shining on screen next year. Lindo and Bart are a great double-act detective duo and we’re excited to see what crime they come against this time around.
"The first series of Granite Harbour was an iPlayer success story for the North East and BBC Scotland will continue to develop and support scripted content representing different areas of Scotland."
Season 2 was written by Rob Fraser (Tin Star), Ciara Conway (Holby City) and Writers Guild of Great Britain award-winner Jillian Mannion (Death in Paradise).
Here's everything we know about Granite Harbour season 2...
Granite Harbour season 2 release date
Granite Harbour premiered on the BBC Scotland channel on Thursday, May 2 at 10 pm. It then aired on BBC One a day later.
All 3 episodes are now available on iPlayer.
Granite Harbour season 2 plot
Granite Harbour season 2 "sees Lindo and Bart called to the harbour to investigate the origins of a new crime wave sweeping the city", so we're dealing with an entirely new story this time around. Meanwhile, a second case involves a pregnant young stowaway who Lindo is determined to help.
Season 1 followed Lindo after he'd completed his final tour with the Royal Military Police, and now dreams of being a detective at New Scotland Yard. However, he finds himself being sent to train as a Detective Constable in the North East of Scotland, where he must quickly adapt to his new life in the city, and the story continued from there.
Granite Harbour season 2 cast
Romario Simpson returns as RMP Sergeant Davis Lindo and Hannah Donaldson will reprise her role as DS Lara ‘Bart’ Bartlett.
Romario Simpson said: "I'm delighted to be returning to Scotland to film season 2 of Granite Harbour. I'm looking forward to reuniting with the original cast and collaborating with some new creatives. It’s another opportunity to learn more about Aberdeen, and take in some vital fresh air and open space."
Meanwhile, Hannah Donaldson added: "Growing up as an aspiring young actress in the northeast of Scotland I didn’t often see the landscapes I recognized as home or hear the accents of my friends and family on screen. I’m very proud to be a small part of bringing Granite Harbour to life.
"Series 2 is an excellent opportunity for us to delve further into Bart and Lindo’s relationship and the dynamics of the team. I can’t wait to get my necktie on and get back to work with the North East Murder Investigation Team."
So far, additional cast has not been confirmed but we will keep you updated when new names are revealed.
