Broadchurch is a British television crime drama created and written by Chris Chibnall, broadcast on ITV and produced by Kudos and starring David Tennant and Olivia Colman. Casting was announced in June 2012, with filming commencing in Clevedon in August as well as in West Bay in Bridport.[1] It premiered on 4 March 2013 at 9:00pm on ITV.[2] In January 2013, the series was bought by BBC America, where it was shown in the United States beginning August 7, 2013.
Set on the Dorset coast, it centres on the death of an eleven-year-old boy, and the search for his killer by detectives Alec Hardy (Tennant) and Ellie Miller (Colman).[3][4][5][6] Its first series achieved high ratings for ITV, winning critical acclaim, and generating a large amount of publicity around the "whodunit" mystery. After the first series ended, ITV announced that Broadchurch would return for a second series.[7]
The Fox Broadcasting Network announced that they would produce a remake of Broadchurch for US audiences to air in the 2014–15 season, called Gracepoint. David Tennant has been cast as the lead detective named Emmett Carver.[8]
Development
Series creator Chris Chibnall described the project as a labour of love; he had always wanted to create a big ensemble drama exploring how a death might affect a community set in an area where he has lived for the last decade. The location of the series was partly inspired by the fact that he lived near the Jurassic Coast in Dorset.[9] In 2011, he wrote the first episode and asked ITV drama commissioner Laura Mackie to read the script. Soon afterwards, she approved production.[10] The series was filmed between August and November 2012, predominantly on the Jurassic Coast at West Bay in Dorset, with the town of Clevedon just outside Bristol doubling as the fictional town of Broadchurch, with interior scenes of the police station shot in studios in Bristol.[10][11]
The secrecy surrounding the conclusion of the first series was well-noted. Olivia Colman confirmed in an interview with Graham Norton that only four cast members knew the identity of the murderer during filming.
The complete series of Broadchurch was released by Acorn Media UK on 20 May 2013.[12]
While ITV commissioned it for a one-off series and creator Chris Chibnall had described the show as "not set up as a returning franchise" and said, "nothing about [Broadchurch] was devised as a big ITV returning banker".,[13] the final episode concluded with the caption "Broadchurch will return" suggesting a second series. ITV confirmed a second series shortly after.

Police officers
- Detective Inspector Alec Hardy (David Tennant) – Alec is an experienced detective from the city who has recently arrived in Broadchurch, wanting a quiet life after a scandal-tinged work history, after having been involved with a major murder trial — in which the suspect was released free of charge after crucial evidence was lost. Initially he and Ellie are hostile to each other as he was chosen over her to head the investigation and due to their differing personalities and views. As the case drags on, his health begins to fail and he suffers a heart attack in Episode 6. He is divorced, and has a fifteen year old daughter who lives with her mother.
- Detective Sergeant Ellie Miller (Olivia Colman) – Ellie is Alec's colleague, and has a personal connection to Danny's murder, having been friendly with the Latimer family for a number of years. She has lived in Broadchurch all of her life, and her son Tom, who houses a dark secret of his own, had been best friends with Danny. Ellie is deeply affected by the murder, and resents Alec for taking the job she was promised by Superintendent Jenkinson. She acts as liaison with the Latimer family, relaying information which is given to her, and attempting to piece together the events leading up to Danny's death.
- Chief Superintendent Elaine Jenkinson (Tracey Childs) – Elaine is Alec's and Ellie's boss, and tries to settle Alec into life in Broadchurch. Although she is aware of his past, she does not use it against him, and offers him Ellie's promotion in her absence, having been on a family vacation for three weeks. Ellie is furious when she learns Elaine has given her job to Alec, despite being promised the promotion herself. She has never been referred to as Elaine by Ellie.
Latimer family
- Beth Latimer (Jodie Whittaker) – Beth is Danny's and Chloe's mother, and Mark's wife. She works at the Broadchurch Tourist Bureau. She is completely overwhelmed by Danny's death, and struggles to cope, telling Ellie that she is further away from herself than she has ever been. She struggles to trust her husband, who was unable to account for his whereabouts on the night of Danny's disappearance. She is currently pregnant with her third child; Beth confides in Reverend Coates about her pregnancy. She also finds solace in Steve's information about Danny's death.
- Mark Latimer (Andrew Buchan) – Mark is Danny's and Chloe's father, and Beth's husband. He is a plumber. After Danny's death, he began desperately grieving for his son, becoming determined to find the killer. His alibi is called into question when he is unable to account for his whereabouts on the night of Danny's death, but has a secret which he needs to keep: he has been having an affair with hotel owner Becca. He is also best friends with employee Nigel, and asks Nigel to provide an alibi for him on the night of Danny's death. Beth later discovers his affair with Becca.
- Chloe Latimer (Charlotte Beaumont) – Chloe is Beth's and Mark's 15-year old daughter. She is a student currently studying for her GCSEs. Chloe is overwhelmed by her brother's sudden death, but her relationship with an older boy, Dean, is another source of stress. She and Dean are having sex and at 15 she is below the age of consent; Dean is concerned that their relationship will be discovered and he will be charged. Chloe is the first to be contacted by a member of the national press in relation to Danny's death.
- Daniel "Danny" Latimer (Oskar McNamara) – Danny (11) is Beth's and Mark's only son, and the victim of the murder. Shortly before his death, a consignment of petrol was stolen from a nearby farm, and he was spotted on CCTV riding through the town centre on his skateboard at 3am. Moments before he died, he was seen bleeding, standing atop the cliffs below which he was found. The police were informed by newsagent Jack that Danny had an argument with a Royal Mail delivery driver on the morning of his death, a fact which currently seems insignificant but may hold a clue as to the motive behind his murder.
- Liz Roper (Susan Brown) – Liz is Danny's and Chloe's grandmother, Beth's mother, and Mark's mother-in-law. She is a bursar at the local school that Danny attended. She is completely at a loss following her grandson's death, but manages to be the one who holds her family together. She suspects that Mark may be involved in Danny's death after he is hauled in by the police for questioning, although later changes her mind when he is released without charge.
Miller family
- Joe Miller (Matthew Gravelle) – Joe is Ellie's husband, and Tom and Fred's father. Joe is a house-husband, but before the birth of his children, was a paramedic. He does his best to support his wife throughout the murder investigation, but appears not to notice his son Tom's strange behaviour.
- Tom Miller (Adam Wilson) – Tom is Ellie and Joe's elder son, and said to be Danny's best friend, though Tom denies this. He is a pupil in the final year of primary school. After Danny's disappearance, Tom wiped seven messages from Danny from his mobile phone, as well as deleting files from his laptop. He later asks Paul Coates about how to ensure that files are permanently deleted from a hard drive. When interviewed by the police, he also clams up about the circumstances surrounding Danny's death.
- Fred Miller (Benji Yapp) – Fred is Ellie's and Joe's younger son. Joe has been looking after Fred since he gave up his paramedic job.

When he confronts Jack with the information about his former sex conviction, Jack threatens to kill him.

She is not fazed by the sensitivity of the murder, and instantly locks horns with Alec, and threatens to expose his shadowy past about the former case in which he failed the family of the victim. On the instructions of her boss, Len, she manipulates the Latimer family into revealing information about Danny's life, and uses Beth as an empathetic figure to try and coax information out of the public pertaining to Danny's murder. In the aftermath of the publicising of the murder case, she finds herself antagonised by the townsfolk, especially Maggie and Olly.
- Len Danvers (Simon Rouse) – Len is Karen's boss at the Daily Herald, and is desperate to get an exclusive on the murder before any of the other national papers. He is unconvinced by Karen's interest in the case at first, but soon agrees to play along.
