Synopsis of Episode One of Broadchurch Original broadcast date on ITV: Monday 5th January 2015 No details about even the subject matter for the second series was announced in advance. No press or even cast secreenings were held and some cast and full character names were not announced. The synopsis for the first episode by Radio Times was: Return of the critically acclaimed crime drama set in a Dorset seaside town. In the first series, the murder of 11-year-old Danny Latimer rocked Broadchurch, as DI Alec Hardy - still haunted by the collapse of a previous case he worked on - was put in charge of the investigation. Many local residents came under suspicion, including the boy's father Mark, and the revelation of the killer's identity had far-reaching consequences after weeks of speculation. Story details are being kept tightly under wraps for this second series, but viewers can expect more twists, turns and mystery as the plot develops.
