(Disclaimer: Before I start I am aware that TV shows have to retcon things as they progress, and there will be inevitable plot holes but I still love the show)

Okay so in the last episode of Series 1, Episode 10, The Blue Cross

We see "Captain Flynn's" marching orders

Dated 8th October 1953. Okay, so we know Series 10 takes in 1954 which means Kembleford would have gone through 3 inspectors, and probably experienced around 130 murders. IN A YEAR. Not to much mention comments like Inspector Mallory made that he put down roots in Kembleford.

OK so that had me laughing but then I remembered

Series 5, Episode 11, The Sins of Others

The Episode in which Sid after a year of being in prison for a crime he did not commit checks a witness statement.

25th of June 1952 (I know it is cut off but trust me )

He also has a calendar from the time he left.

Okay, so that means that Series 5 takes place in 1953. So that means Series 5 to probably 9 ish was all in 1953. But that does not seem right with the amount Holiday episodes we got.

My question to you guys is what do you think the new timeline is?

My best guess is that Series 1 would now have to be around be 1949 or 1950 which also seems tight.

Like we know she is widow, and has an adult son. She enjoys the theatre, and acts in plays often.

What we know about Sid’s background

Originally from London.

And he moved to Kembleford when he was young.

Has a Nan/grandmother that he visits sometimes. ( and wanted her to lie to the police )

Literally that is all
