Based on Agatha Christie’s well-liked, but perhaps lesser-known, characters, BritBox’s “Agatha Christie’s Tommy & Tuppence” is the first contemporary English-language adaptation of the detective duo. Set in modern-day London, the series follows Tommy (Josh Dylan), a crime novelist doing a favor for an old friend when he encounters his college sweetheart, Tuppence (Antonia Thomas). An aspiring actress, Tuppence has returned to the U.K. following a stint in Los Angeles where she was trying to get her big break. Reeling from their unexpected reunion, neither of them expects to be thrust into the middle of a murder investigation. Though the show takes a moment to get its bearings, “Tommy & Tuppence” blossoms, becoming an engaging mystery drama. It doesn’t quite break the mold, but still carries its audience on an adventure-filled journey of murder and mayhem.
