Beloved British detective drama that's 'one of the best TV adaptations' of classic coming to Netflix
Fans of detective dramas can rejoice, as one of the most beloved British series in the genre is coming to Netflix later this month. Based on the work of a legendary novelist, Agatha Christie's Marple will get a new streaming home soon in the UK.
Set in 1925, the series stars Mia McKenna-Bruce as Lady Eileen ‘Bundle’ Brent, who becomes an amateur sleuth when a practical joke at a lavish country house party appears to have gone horribly, murderously wrong. The series also stars Martin Freeman as Superintendent Battle, while Helena Bonham Carter plays Bundle's mother, Lady Caterham.
This was the challenge laid at the foot of Broadchurch creator Chris Chibnall, The Tourist director Chris Sweeney and exec Suzanne Mackie ( The Crown), who responded with a cinematic vision, evoking the Sean Connery James Bond Era, Hitchock’s North by Northwest and the production values of The Crown, Chibnall told us.
Netflix's plucky UK murder mystery Seven Dials' emotional hook gives it a darker twist on cosy crime
Helena Bonham Carter was made for this world, as her propensity to lean into more eccentric characters makes her Lady Caterham slot in with ease. Caterham's blunt honesty is delivered with whimsy, but there is also a melancholic air surrounding her. Married together, the character exudes a bittersweet quality.
