Kelby’s story so far
Character arc, Series 1–4 (no case solutions)
Kelby is the station's young, keen and occasionally out-of-his-depth constable, eager to prove himself. In Series 1 an apparently impossible crime happens on his watch, and at Christmas 2023 he is stuck minding a shoplifter. In the Series 2 finale he is pulled off an assault case, wins it back and leads it to a conclusion, which boosts his standing. Series 3 gives him a bigger role, including a case involving an old friend and a slow thaw in his rivalry with local rogue Josh Woods. In Series 4 he has an online girlfriend, Agnieszka, whose promised visit does not go to plan.
