ITV’s Grace Series 6 Set to Premiere on March 29, 2026
ITV has announced that its acclaimed series Grace will return for a sixth season, with the first episode set to air at 8 PM on March 29, 2026. The show, which follows Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, played by John Simm, investigates various crimes with the East Sussex Police.
The sixth series will adapt several of Peter James‘ bestselling novels, including Left You Dead, Capture You Dead, Dead Man’s Game, and One Of Us is Dead. Since its debut in 2021, the series has aired a total of 16 episodes.
Filming for the upcoming season took place across Sussex, prominently featuring locations such as Brighton, where previous episodes have also been shot, including notable sites like Brighton Pier and Shoreham Port.
John Simm expressed his enthusiasm for the series, stating, “This is the longest I’ve been involved in any show!” His co-star, Richie Campbell, who portrays DI Glenn Branson, added, “I think the beautiful thing for us is that each season, we’re constantly thinking about upping it.” This commitment to quality has contributed to the show’s growing popularity.
As the premiere date approaches, fans are eager to see how the new adaptations will unfold. The anticipation surrounding the series reflects its strong viewer engagement and critical acclaim.
In addition to the excitement for Grace, ITV continues to showcase a variety of programming, including James Martin’s Saturday Morning, which airs every Saturday at 9:30 AM on ITV1 and ITVX. Martin recently appealed to viewers to support British produce during his cooking show, emphasizing the importance of local sourcing.
With the return of Grace, ITV aims to maintain its reputation for delivering high-quality drama that resonates with audiences. The upcoming season promises to build on the success of its predecessors, further establishing the series as a staple of British television.
