3 Must-Watch British Crime Shows Coming to Your Screen in November 2024
Rebus: solving word and picture puzzles
Looking for engaging crime shows to watch this November? Here are three compelling mystery series worth your attention:
Rebus (2024) brings Scotland's beloved detective John Rebus back to the screen. Starring Outlander's Richard Rankin, this modern adaptation follows a recently divorced detective navigating complex cases in Edinburgh while confronting a menacing local gangster. The six-episode series, already successful overseas, offers a fresh take on Ian Rankin's iconic character.
Inspector Ellis (2024) features Sharon D. Clarke as a skilled detective called to northern England to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a teenager and his girlfriend. This three-episode series delves into a town's hidden secrets, offering tight plotting and a masterful performance by Clarke.
Inside Man (2022) unites Doctor Who veterans Steven Moffat and David Tennant in a gripping four-part mystery. The series weaves together three seemingly unrelated stories: a London journalist, a small-town priest, and an American death row inmate (Stanley Tucci). While some plot points stretch credibility, the mounting tension and excellent performances make this Netflix series thoroughly engaging.
Each show offers unique perspectives on the crime genre while delivering compelling narratives perfect for a cozy autumn viewing session.
