Partners in Crime (2015)

Agatha Christie’s 2015 reimagining of Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, Partners in Crime, offered a vibrant, Cold War-era lens on the classic sleuthing duo. Starring David Walliams and Jessica Raine, the series departed from the somber tones often associated with modern mystery adaptations, favoring a playful, 1950s aesthetic. While it only spanned six episodes, its legacy lies in its bold attempt to modernize the Beresfords' chemistry for a contemporary audience. It balanced suburban domesticity with high-stakes espionage, proving that the Christie brand could thrive beyond the shadow of Hercule Poirot. The production's rich visual style and lighthearted pacing established a unique niche within the BBC’s detective portfolio.
