Britbox mysteries

Found Scott and Bailey. Two female detectives in Manchester. Their pertains lives sort of take a back seat to the mysteries. But there is a serial killer plot running through the episodes.

I'm on season 1 ep5

I recommend it

Of course you can’t really go wrong with anything on BritBox. And for a light hearted comedy I loved open All Hours and Still Open All Hours (20 years later with most of the same cast) lots of laugh out loud moments.

dialect of English. My wife and I have been binge watching Brit mysteries for several months now. I like 'em. We are watching Unforgotten now. It has a good cast, outstanding acting, good plot lines and beautiful scenery. It comes free if you can tolerate the ads.
