Official trailer for Season 2 of ‘Dalgliesh’

Dalgliesh is returning to Channel 5 with season two and Dr Edmund Lorrimer’s body is discovered having not returned home from work.

Adam Dalgliesh and DS Kate Miskin are called to Norfolk to investigate and bring the murderer to justice.

Death of an Expert Witness begins with the discovery of a young girl’s body in a remote part of Norfolk.

The post-mortem seems routine enough, but shortly afterwards the forensics lab is shaken by the murder of its senior biologist.
