We came across it about a year ago, and watch it regularly. It has a small cast of regulars, and is very entertaining. There is background music of the era, and some really good acting.
The village of Goathland is the location of the series, and is a popular destination for fans of the programme. It lies between Whitby and Pickering, and the North Yorkshire Steam Railway passes through the area, and features much in the series.
So, we took a drive up there and spent an hour or so having a look around, and trying to spot the locations used in the series. It is interesting how difficult it can be to spot some of the locations, because of the camera angles and the altered perception a camera gives.
The Romans were there once too....before Heartbeat of course... and there are some obvious Roman roads.

It is worth a trip if you are in the area, and I recommend a trip on the steam train.
