DEATH VALLEY SERIES
TIMOTHY SPALL MINI SERIES FROM BBC
Coming to BBC One Sunday May 25th the comedy series will follow the unlikely crime-solving
partnership between eccentric national treasure John Chapel (Timothy Spall), a retired actor and star of hit fictional 
detective TV show, and Welsh detective sergeant Janie Mallowan (Gwyneth Keyworth). Thrown together in DEATH VALLEY by the murder of John’s neighbour,
John and Janie are an odd, yet hilarious duo with opposing
instincts.
Every week, they get to the bottom of gripping murders, with various
stunning Welsh locations providing a backdrop to their investigations.
When John and Janie are not arguing about a case, they’re inevitably
up in each
other’s personal business. Despite their differences, they
soon realise they are the closest thing each other has to a best friend,
and unwittingly help one another move on from the past. The series will also be available for streaming on BritBox.

I only knew Timothy Spall from Harry Potter and as much as I enjoy British detective series, I don't think I would enjoy a comedy styled crime show. Yesterday was our last Netflix day...we finally have all episodes All Creatures Great and Small in German. So going to watch them next few days before switching to 3-month free Apple TV...might switch back to Netflix again...we will see.
ReplyDeleteJudging by what Netflix has in store till the end of the year, there is probably no rush to go back hahaha....
DeleteLa serie La valle della morte è un thriller cupo e teso, con un'ambientazione suggestiva e una trama che tiene incollati. Pochi fronzoli, molta tensione.
ReplyDeleteBuona settimana
This will be more comedy than tensione, ti is a cosy mystery series, methinks.
DeleteEssa dupla tem jeito que vão aprontar nessa série de comédia, Dezmond abraços.
ReplyDeleteAbracos.
Deletegracias por la reseña. te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteBe welcome.
DeleteI like the idea of a crime solving duo with some comedy thrown in. Lighten up that dreadful detective work which can be such a drag at times.
ReplyDeleteAs he said he is the inspiration and she is the perspiration of their duo.
DeleteAbsolutely love this show. Love the cheekiness and grumpiness of this crime solving team. As a crocheter, I love to see which vests the detective will be wearing. The variegated striped v-neck vest with FP/BP ribbing worn at the end of Episode 4, has me searching for the pattern. Anyone else?
ReplyDeleteYou will be happy to hear that it has been renewed for the second season if I am correct.
DeleteYay thank you Dezmond.
DeleteBe welcome.
