☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

An adaptation of the books by Georges Simenon featuring his fictional French detective Jules Maigret, now played by Rowan Atkinson. The series is set in France in the mid-1950s and follows the detective as he solves grizzly cases in the french capital.

I don't normally associate Rowan Atkinson with non-comedic roles but he does a brilliant job in this period drama and its worth a watch. The series has 2 seasons and each season follows a single case across 4 episodes so it's a quick binge if you're not in the mood for anything longer.

Where to watch:

Prime Video
