What TV shows are set in the north and don’t focus on working class tropes or criminality?

Help settle an argument. There must be some but we are trying to think of shows set in the north of England which don’t centre ‘archetypal’ working class tropes and/or are not about criminality. Note they could still be shows with working class people in, but looking for shows which don’t depict those people as simple, uneducated, etc. Any ideas?
