The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco isn't as rich and meaningful as its predecessor, but it's evocative and entertaining, with a little murder thrown in for good measure.

The real question is why they bothered... The dialogue verges on the clumsy, the historical references seem shoe-horned and the departed actors who made up the original cast are very much missed.
