If you have Acorn tv

Recommend a series called Keeping Faith. It's an 8 episode mystery/drama set in Wales. Stars Eve Myles who is also known for Torchwood, Victoria and Broadchurch. Actually the whole cast is Welsh. It has been hugely popular in the UK and there is a second season being made for broadcast in 2019. Not sure when Acorn will have the second season.

Without giving away too much, the story is about Faith Howells, a wife/mother of 3, small-town Welsh lawyer, who is forced to cut short her maternity leave when her husband and business partner, Evan, goes missing on his way to work. (That happens in episode 1, so not really a spoiler)

It's really well done imo, can't wait for season 2!

I'll get hooked and end up subscribing to Acorn, but I'm already on BritBox!

I have found quite a bit of great TV on Acorn. By the way, I can connect to Acorn TV through my library card. If you don't have it, maybe you can check with your library to see if they offer it.
