TV Viewing: The British Detectives



I have only written a few new hubs since the barrage of changes came about.  British Detective shows have become something of an obsession, so I decided to write a curated list of all my very favorites.

When that proved to be too long for one page, bringing just the Female Centric shows into one list seemed to be a brilliant idea. After all, those are some of the creme de la creme.

It All Began Innocently Enough

Watching PBS began this trek into British TV. At first it was enough to see the shows weekly as they arbitrarily popped up in the schedule. But soon I had favorites, and great disappointment when unable to catch the latest episodes. 

PBS wasn't enough, I needed more. I started a Netflix account, then an Amazon Prime.... eventually an Acorn subscription. I was immersed in Inspector Morse stories, in Prime Suspect, Broadchurch, Happy Valley, and delved into the esoteric, the vintage, and whatever promised to have mystery and British venue combined.

For those who enjoy mystery shows and detective series, I wanted to give a good heads up on the shows they might otherwise miss. 

The Brit Detective TV Show Reviews

I have a new one in the works, but for now there are two pages:

The third one is coming next month...

Start Watching

If you love good British TV, peruse the PBS schedule. One of the newer ones, 'Endeavor' is worth looking for, and on my station they regularly air 'Father Brown' on Thursdays. Check to see if the shows on my reviews are on your local station.

If not, one of the most complete offerings are to be found on Amazon Prime, which has two added benefits: you can watch whenever you wish, and you can watch on your device ( not just on the TV screen!)
