| | Hi Readers,
If you're British TV obsessed like me, you're going to love our March lineup! The original The Bletchley Circle hooked viewers with its plot that's part murder mystery, part World War II drama. Two stars from the original series, Julie Graham and Rachael Stirling, have reprised their roles for the new spin-off The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco, which is set in our very own city by the Bay in the mid-1950s. I'm so here for the costumes, scenes set in vintage San Francisco and accents — always the accents! Also on the lineup in March, don't miss the Victoria Season 3 finale and a new season of Call the Midwife!
Happy watching,
Whitney
Editor, On KQED

| 'The Bletchley Circle' Comes to San Francisco |  |
| | | The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco follows two characters from the original series, Millie (Rachael Stirling) and Jean (Julie Graham), as they travel to California to investigate the wartime murder of their colleague, Claire — who had her tongue cut out, a symbol drawn on her palm and her cardigan ruined by a mysterious killer. There, they make contact with two American cryptographers, and together they work out the killer's pattern. The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco premieres Monday, March 18, at 8pm on KQED Plus. | | |
