Lodge 49 is a critically acclaimed, light-hearted, endearing, modern fable set in Long Beach, California about a disarmingly optimistic local ex-surfer, Dud (Wyatt Russell), who’s drifting after the death of his father and collapse of the family business. Dud serendipitously finds himself on the doorstep of a rundown fraternal lodge where middle-aged plumbing salesman and “Luminous Knight” of the order, Ernie (Brent Jennings), welcomes him into a world of cheap beer and easy camaraderie and the promise of Alchemical mysteries that may, or may not, put Dud on the path to recover the idyllic life he’s lost.

It’s the long hot summer of 1959 and wedding season is in full swing in the Cambridgeshire village of Grantchester. As the Reverend Will Davenport (Tom Brittney) unites happy couples in holy matrimony, Detective Inspective Geordie Keating (Robson Green) finds himself trying to repair his own marriage to estranged wife Cathy (Kacey Ainsworth). With a new decade just around the corner, the question of what the future holds is on everyone’s minds. Former curate Leonard Finch (Al Weaver) embarks on a new venture, while housekeeper Mrs Chapman (Tessa Peake-Jones) receives news which tests her faith and her usual sense of certainty.
