Miss Scarlett & The Duke

First episode last Tuesday on Alibi.

Here's the synopsis:
Brand new to Alibi, the home of the very best crime television drama, is this full-throttle TV series about the first-ever female detective in Victorian London starring Kate Phillips (Wolf Hall, Peaky Blinders) and Stuart Martin (Babylon, Jamestown). When Eliza Scarlet’s father dies, he leaves her penniless, but she resolves to continue his detective agency. To operate in a male-dominated world, though, she needs a partner... step forward a detective known as the Duke. With lavish period detail, captivating characters and ingenious mysteries, Miss Scarlet and the Duke is bound to be your new favourite detective drama.

It was OK, hardly "full throttle" though. We recorded it to watch later the same evening.

I've just seen it advertised tonight but I haven't got alibi channel because I'm on Freeview. Advert looks good though.

Sorry, her voice is soooo irritating!

Why is she not wearing mourning dress?

I'll watch it a bit longer but, it's not a patch on Murdoch, Dr Blake, Frankie Drake or Miss Fisher...

The title music was very like "Gentleman Jack" which gave me a little hope.

Ah, yes! I thought it sounded like something I'd heard in the recent past.
