“We really lean into this season, the cost of being a police officer.”

Sian, 44, who reprises her role as Grace, says this season highlights her character's growing frustration with the bureaucracy in the police force.

"In Grace's case, she's frustrated that she isn't able to bring about the change that she would like,” explains the Staffordshire-born actress. “And also, she's a people person. She wants to help each individual directly. It's trying to marry that with the reality of what this job is and the protocols that happen.”

On her character's relationship she says: “Grace and Stevie (Martin McCann) are a fully fledged couple at the beginning of this series. They're settled and looking to buy a house together.
