About the Show

Partners in Crime is a British period drama television series based on two Tommy and Tuppence detective novels by Agatha Christie: The Secret Adversary and N or M? told over six episodes.

Produced by Endor Productions and Agatha Christie Productions Ltd., Partners in Crime stars David Walliams (Little Britain, Big School) as Tommy and Jessica Raine (Call The Midwife, Wolf Hall) as Tuppence in the two adventures, The Secret Adversary and N or M?.

Partners In Crime is an adventure series with espionage and humour at its heart. Set in a 1950s Britain, rising from the ashes of the Blitz into the grip of a new Cold War, our beekeeping duo stumble into a world of murder, undercover agents and Cold War conspiracy.

Tuppence is a woman who sees adventure round every corner, throwing herself head first into every mystery with passion and fervour, determined to get to the truth no matter what it takes, much to the dismay of her more cautious husband Tommy.

When the couple are thrust into a web of international espionage after a chance encounter on a return train from Paris, their lives are about to get a whole lot more exciting.

Partners In Crime is produced by Georgina Lowe, (Mr Turner, Mad Dogs), executive produced by Emmy award-winning Hilary Bevan Jones (Roald Dahl's Esio Trot, State Of Play), David Walliams, Hilary Strong (Agatha Christie's Poirot, Have I Got News For You) and Mathew Prichard for Agatha Christie Productions and Matthew Read for the BBC.
