I love a good crime drama / police procedural / whodunnit, especially UK-based. I particularly like dramas based on true events or cases, although fictional is okay too. I have Netflix, Prime and Britbox

Things I have watched and enjoyed to a greater or lesser extent (there’s probably more, these are the things that spring to mind) so anything more in this vein is what I’m looking for:

Manhunt - both series
See No Evil
Little Boy Blue
Unforgotten
Three Girls
The Fall
Line of Duty
White House Farm
Rillington Place
Harlan Coben’s Safe and Stay Close
Happy Valley
River
Luther
Whitechapel
Appropriate Adult

Hidden is really good, set in North Wales. There are two series with different storylines, both on iPlayer Smile

Every episode of Silent Witness is on BBC iplayer at the moment. There's just over 200 episodes.

Three recommendations of dramatisations based on real events:
Des (based on Dennis Nilsen)
A Confession (based on Christopher Halliwell)
The Pembrokeshire Murders
All were very good, I thought.

OldPodge · 04/01/2022 04:57

I’ve just watched Informer which I thought was really good. Don’t think anyone’s mentioned Line of Duty yet either.

Gechik · 04/01/2022 06:13

Scott and Bailey on BritBox
Crime on Britbox

OnlyTheTitosaurusOfTheIceberg · 04/01/2022 07:51

Thank you, I’ve watched a few of these but there are some new ones to me so that’s great. JemimaTab that sounds exactly what I’m after so I’ll start with those three 😊

Four Lives - started on BBC last night.

Trigger Point - saw this being advertised staring Adrian Lester (from Hustle) - looks promising. Not sure when it starts.

Hustle - if you’ve not seen this, we’ll worth watching

Shakespeare and Hathaway - cosy detective series, set in Stratford upon Avon

SilverPeacock · 04/01/2022 08:02

Salisbury Poisonings

BestIsWest · 04/01/2022 08:06

Just following. Can’t think of anything to add but pp have mentioned some excellent ones.
Des, Pembrokeshire murders and Salisbury Poisonings were all good.
