THE DETECTION CLUB SERIES ABOUT A MYSTERIOUS SOCIETY OF FAMOUS CRIME WRITERS INCLUDING AGATHA CHRISTIE ORDERED BY BBC AND BRITBOX

   THE DETECTION CLUB  
NEW TV SERIES FROM BBC AND BRITBOX
BBC and BritBox have announced work on a new television series THE DETECTION CLUB about a mysterious society of famous crime writers whose members included Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and G.K. Chesterton! The series will be taking a ‘mystery-of-the-week’ style approach with fictional versions of Christie, Sayers and Chesterton set as the main characters solving crimes each episode. Formed nearly 100 years ago, the elusive and exclusive Detection Club met regularly as its members dined and helped each other with technical aspects of their writing. As well as meeting, they also adhered to Knox’s Commandments, which instructed that a reader of their books must always be given a fair chance at guessing the guilty party.
