Mrs Sidhu Investigates New on UKTV from 4th October 2023

I think this is the same as the radio plays that were on Radio 4, aslo staring Meera Syal.

Cant see any other info than this so this is more like an advance warning.

But I think already being shown on Acorn TV

Anyone with Acorn TV able to see this? I've noticed I'm not seeing shows in my Acorn apps that I think I should. Season 4 of London Kills for instance and this.

I dont have Acorn, but it says it showed the 1st episode on 18th and the 2nd on 25th.

Mrs Sidhu Investigates is on Acorn in the US, but the Drama TV channel in the UK, with first episode on 4th October. It is not available, at present, on Acorn in the UK.

I've now watched 2 episodes and am a bit disappointed.

I heard them as radio plays so know they were light hearted, but somehow on the screen it doesn't quite work. Or rather than have turned it into a series like so many others with amateur detective.

They have changed some of the stories lines to make them more about current life styles etc., but I think in doing that they have lost some of Mrs Sidhu's back story and circle of friends.

But as light hearted easy watching probably okay.

And interesting to see Dot Cottan being comedic!
