"Foyle's War" -- I'm late to the game but loving it [View all]

An older series (streaming on Acorn) about an English police detective solving crimes in 1940's England, against the background of the ongoing war. While yes there are "regular" murders, there are also some crimes connected to wartime tensions, Nazis, antisemitism, and espionage. Fantastic acting (like so many British shows).

If you like British TV, Acorn is well worth subscribing to.
