Sister Boniface Mysteries confirmed to be returning to BBC One and iPlayer – and it’s soon

The beloved Sister Boniface Mysteries series will be back on BBC One and iPlayer this month, offering viewers an opportunity to watch the initial two seasons – either as a new experience or a delightful re-watch.

In a lighter, crime-solving TV show, the storyline extends beyond the popular daytime drama “Father Brown,” focusing on the main character, Lorna Watson, who lives in the appropriately named village of Great Slaughter, where she unravels perplexing mysteries.

Since its premiere on UKTV’s U&Drama, the program has garnered a significant following, causing the BBC to re-air some of its classic episodes on their primary TV channel due to popular demand.

Season 2 of The Sister Boniface Mysteries is set to debut on BBC One at 2:00 PM on Friday, August 22nd, 2025. Each episode will likely air weekly in that time slot towards the end of each week. Additionally, you’ll have the option to stream the entire series on iPlayer.

In the debut episode of season 2, the town of Great Slaughter becomes the summer venue for the well-known kids’ TV show called Jolly Rodger, as stated in the official summary.

In this scenario, if the program’s editor dies during the live broadcast, local authorities might ask Sister Boniface to uncover the identity of the possible culprit.

Last summer, I was thrilled to see that The Sister Boniface Mysteries made its debut on BBC One, airing the entire first season. However, since then, it seems this captivating series has disappeared from iPlayer.

For fans who have been following UKTV, these upcoming episodes may serve as a satisfying bridge until the eagerly awaited fourth season airs on U&Drama towards the end of the year.

This series pays homage to classic Batman films and features a program reminiscent of ‘The Generation Game.’ Unfortunately, the convent is also at risk. Off-camera, there’s a lot of drama unfolding, in addition to the cases that need resolution. To put it simply, this series is quite significant.

Watson remarked, “You won’t be let down. Each year, Max Brown and I have the same sentiment – though it seems impossible, it continues to grow even larger.

It appears there are many more mysteries in store for Sister Boniface. If you haven’t encountered this captivating detective nun yet, don’t miss her unique investigative style on BBC One and iPlayer this month.

Sister Boniface Mysteries return to BBC One and iPlayer on Friday 22nd August 2025.
