A spin-off of the miniseries The Bletchley Circle, the new series follows Millie (Rachael Stirling) and Jean (Julie Graham) as they travel to San Francisco and continue to use their code-breaking skills to solve murders.[4][5][6]

The Bletchley Circle: San Francisco is produced by Omnifilm Entertainment and World Productions for BritBox, with Kew Media as the international distributor.[7][8][4][9] Filming began in March 2018 and takes place principally in Vancouver, British Columbia.[10][11]

Following a successful debut season, Rachael Stirling and Julie Graham confirmed during an interview with Total TV Guide in April 2019 that a second series had been commissioned.[12] The complete first series was released on DVD in Region 2 by Acorn Media on 20 May 2019.[13]
