Broadchurch
starring David Tennant, Olivia Colman and Arthur Darvill was previewed by BBC
America at the Television Critics Association Press Tour this morning. The
eight-part series which follows the murder of a schoolboy in a sleepy seaside
town in south-western England
is the creation of Doctor Who and Torchwood writer Chris Chibnall
Previews were followed by a Q&A session with cast
members Olivia Colman (DS Ellie Miller), Jodie Whittaker (Beth Latimer) and
David Bradley (Jack Marshall).
During the panel, North American TV critics and writers tweeted an extremely
positive response to the series:

Next up at #TCAs13: BBCA's brilliant, shattering #Broadchurch

David Tennant has the serious Doctor face throughout the
entire season of #Broadchurch

Astoundingly actress Olivia Colman's performance in #Broadchurch
outshines co-star David Tennant. That's hard to do!

Arthur Darvill also gets a chance to shine in #Broadchurch
and #DoctorWho
fans will love his new role.

Why I love English actors: "We were all very aware that
we were pretending," says #Broadchurch
star Olivia Colman of intense role.

If your a fan of THE KILLING you're gonna love BROADCHURCH
even better, it's not raining in every scene. @BBCAMERICA

So much of impact of BBC's #Broadchurch
is about the writing; it's really hurting #TCAs13 panel
that writer isn't here.

Broadchurch is legitimately the best thing I've seen all
year. Run, don't walk! :)
David Wiegand @WaitWhat_TV (San Francisco Chronicle)
#olivacolman confirms #broadchurch
