Heartbeat is set in the 1960s, in the fictional Yorkshire town
of Aidensfield. The first seasons focus on the lives of London
policeman Nick Rowan (Nick Berry), who moves to the village
with his doctor wife Kate (Niamh Cusack).
Nick's police colleagues feature in the series, under the
leadership of the crusty but kindhearted Sergeant Blaketon (Derek
Fowlds). Blaketon's nemesis is Claude Jeremiah Greengrass
(Bill Maynard), poacher and occasional small-time fence.
Greengrass is a regular patron of the Aidensfield Arms hotel,
run by George Ward and his pretty niece Gina. It's here at the
pub that we see much of the day-to-day social interaction in
the series.
In later series, the focus is more on the ensemble cast,
including PC Mike Bradley
Heartbeat is based on the Constable books by Nicholas
Rhea.
