Following in the footsteps of Sally Lindsay's cosy crime show and Stephen Graham's period drama, there's another British drama coming to Netflix this month and this one stars Happy Valley favourite Siobhan Finneran.
It was 2017 and Broadchurch – often described as being one of the best British crime series – had come to its conclusion, leaving a gap for audiences to fill.
Enter The Loch (or Loch Ness, depending on where in the world you were tuning in from), ITV's new whodunit starring Siobhan Finneran and Laura Fraser (The Missing).
At the time, we asked if The Loch was "the new Broadchurch" – pointing to the way in which the show's crimes unfolded against a gorgeous backdrop.
The drama is set on the shores of Scotland, and centres on small-town officer Annie Redford (Fraser) and her new no-nonsense partner Lauren Quigley (Finneran) as they investigate a series of killings.
Death in Paradise star Don Gilet is also part of the cast, as psychological profiler Blake Albrighton.

Siobhan Finneran previously told Digital Spy that the crime drama "should keep people guessing", as lots of characters seem "suspicious" at some point.
The Loch was fairly well received by critics (via Rotten Tomatoes) with New Statesman also saying to "think of it as Wee Broadchurch", while the New York Times called it "a fine diversion for summer evenings".
The Loch was created and written by Stephen Brady, who has also worked on the Ben Miller-fronted Professor T and Channel 4 crime drama Patience. The six-part mystery series will now be introduced to a new audience, joining Netflix on 26 July.
It was internationally broadcast with the title Loch Ness, which it seems to have adopted for its Netflix release.
The Loch aired on ITV in the UK, and is coming to Netflix on 26 July.
