Karen Pirie Confronts a Father’s Denial in This Exclusive BritBox Sneak Peek

Lauren Lyle slips back into Karen Pirie’s practical boots with all the sharp intuition and quiet bite that made Season 1 such a gem. 

But this time, our favorite Scottish detective isn’t just untangling an old case.

Now, she’s wading through a swamp of class privilege and willful blindness.

Now a Detective Inspector, Karen is assigned to reopen the 1984 kidnapping of oil heiress Catriona Grant and her infant son. 

A body turns up in the peat, and suddenly a case everyone thought was long buried demands attention again.

The deeper Karen digs, the clearer it becomes that money and power didn’t just shield the guilty — they rewrote the entire story.

That tension comes to a head in this exclusive clip, where Karen pays a visit to Catriona’s father, Sir Broderick Grant (James Cosmo). 

He’s every inch the old-guard industrialist — polished, condescending, and convinced he knows best. 

Karen listens, barely concealing her contempt, as he defends keeping Fergus Sinclair (John Michie), the man who abandoned Catriona when she became pregnant, employed in his company. 

He calls the relationship an entanglement. Karen calls it what it is: betrayal.

It’s a scene that distills everything Karen Pirie does so well — a battle of words wrapped inside the larger war between truth and reputation. 

And Lyle plays it beautifully, her restraint going deeper than anger ever could. 

Let’s just say that if rolling eyes could talk, Karen’s eyes would have quite the story to tell.

Watch the full episode on Thursday on BritBox, with new installments streaming weekly. 

If the premiere proved anything, it’s that even forty years can’t bury the secrets of St. Andrews — and Karen Pirie isn’t about to let anyone else decide when the digging stops.

How long will it take Karen to get to the bottom of Caitrona’s death?

Karen Pirie is eight episodes longer, and we have no doubt she’ll solve the case.

The real fun is in watching her work and cheering for her to show the boys how it’s done.
