Wycliffe — What We Are Watching
Our latest find on BritBox is Wycliffe, a police procedural that originally aired from 1993 to 1998. Many of the shows from this period seem dated, but we are enjoying this one so far.

Recommendations for shows and movies we have enjoyed (or not!)
Dalgliesh — What We Are Watching
Our latest Acorn TV find is Dalgliesh, a new series that was just launched. It is based on the Adam Dalgliesh novels by P.D. James. If you like British crime mysteries, we recommend putting this one on your watch list.
Doc Martin — What We Are Watching
We enjoyed Martin Clunes in Manhunt, so we decided to try Doc Martin. We had had it on the consideration list for a bit. Enjoying stories and Cornwall settings so far.
Suspects — What We’re Watching
Our latest find on Acorn TV is Suspects, a British police procedural show that aired from 2014-2016. There are five seasons (or series as the British refer to them).
Manhunt — What We Are Watching
Our latest find on AcornTV is the show Manhunt. It features Martin Clunes from Doc Martin. Clunes plays DCI Colin Sutton, the lead detective on two cases investigated by the Met that captivated Britain.
Maigret — What We Are Watching
We enjoyed the 2016 Maigret series with Rowan Atkinson last year. Decided to watch the version starring Michael Gambon that was released in the early 1990s.
Line of Duty — What We’re Watching
Watching series 1 of Line of Duty. We had started this a couple of times before, but never stuck with it. This time we decide to push forward. There are six series so far, so expect we will be watching for a bit.
Professor T — What We Are Watching
Just started watching the new British version of Professor T. It features Ben Miller who was the first Death in Paradise detective.
Vienna Blood — What We Are Watching
We just started watching Vienna Blood. Another BBC murder mystery show for us. This one is set in Vienna, Austria in the 1900s.
Fixer Upper Welcome Home — What We’re Watching
We signed up for Discovery+ to check out some of the shows being produced by Chip and Joanna Gaines under their new Magnolia Network brand. Their original show, Fixer Upper, was a favorite of ours and I have closely followed how they have built out their business and their brand.
McDonald and Dodds Series 2 — What We Are Watching
Just finished up Series 2 of McDonald and Dodds on BritBox. This series has a similar format to Series 1, but this time there are three 90 minute episodes. Worth a watch!
Unforgotten — What We Are Watching
Just started watching Unforgotten. This is a British crime drama (yup, yet another one for us). It features a team of London detectives as they solve cold cases of disappearance and murder.
