Murder in Provence – Season 1 (available from 1st March 2022)
Adapted from the books by M.L. Longworth, Murder in Provence follows Antoine Verlaque (Roger Allam, Endeavour), and Investigating Judge in Aix-en-Provence, and his romantic partner Marine Bonnet (Nancy Carroll, Father Brown) as they investigate the murders, mysteries and dark underbelly of their idyllic home.
Their efforts are aided by Hélène (Keala Settle, The Greatest Showman), a hard-nosed detective and Antoine’s trusted confidante. Each episode investigates and resolves a new murder.
The Bay – Season 3 (available from 15th March 2022)
DS Jenn Townsend (Marsha Thomason, Lost), Morecambe’s new FLO, is thrown in the deep end when a body is found in the Bay on her first day in the job.
She must get under the skin of a grieving and complicated family if she has any chance of solving the murder, whilst at the same time proving herself to new colleagues in the MIU. The pressure is multiplied when her new blended family struggle to settle in Morecambe, proving to Jenn that a fresh start might not be quite as simple as moving to a different town.
Twenty Twelve (available from 22nd March 2022)
Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey), Jessica Hynes (There She Goes), Olivia Colman (The Crown) and Amelia Bullmore (Scott & Bailey) star in this six-part comedy drama about the people paddling hard beneath the water to make the Olympics happen in London in 2012.
Filmed in a documentary style, this comedy series deals with such hot topics as how to phase the traffic lights across London to get people from west to east, who to sell the Taekwondo hall to after the event, what to do when protesters leave large quantities of horse dung on the doorstep in protest at the siting of the equestrian events and how to cope with sportsmen who want to help but are just too dull.
From logistical nightmares to production errors, it’s all in a day’s work for the men and women whose job it is to stage the greatest sporting event in the world.
