I started watching this cop show under the misapprehension that Simms, who plays Roy Grace here, is the same actor who is a cop on the excellent Shetland. But no, there is a resemblance but they are different actors. (So how odd that this character’s wife is named Sandy, which is the cop’s name in Shetland.) So anyway, I like this show. The plots, though sometimes darker, are also more complex than other police shows…
