The synopsis continues: "Off Savile Row, Inspector Bliss (Levey) asks Book to help in a puzzling crime at a gentleman’s outfitters – the elderly tailor Maxie Kleinmann (Corduner) is keen to confess to murder but the evidence doesn’t quite stack up and points to something much more complex and sinister.
"And Book and Jack are sent to the seemingly charming German village of Würl by the mysterious ‘E’ (Callow) to thwart a thieving Duchess (Richardson) at Christmas time. However, festivities take a deadly turn when Book and Jack uncover secrets of their own in a castle brimming with shady characters.
"Book’s association with the police continues to be not without its personal dangers and his lavender marriage with childhood best friend Trottie, is threatened by the debonair Colonel Winters (Graves)."
Episodes of the new season have been written by Gatiss, Matthew Sweet and Ian Hallard, with Gatiss previously teasing that the new run is "definitely more ambitious" than the first.
Earlier this year, Gatiss also revealed his hopes for the series to run and run for multiple seasons, and that he is already writing the show's third run.
