Broadchurch is back for its third and final series – and has gone down well with TV critics.

Olivia Colman and David Tennant are back as DS Ellie Miller and DI Alec Hardy, this time investigating the rape of a woman in the fictional Dorset town.

She’s played by former Coronation Street actress Julie Hesmondhalgh.
