Sky, SRF, ARD Degeto investigate The Death of Sherlock Holmes with Rafe Spall

First Look, , , , , , ,

FIRST LOOK: Rafe Spall and Deleila Piasko head the cast of The Death of Sherlock Holmes, a new series now in production and due to air on broadcasters including Sky in the UK in 2027.

SRF in Switzerland and Germany’s ARD Degeto are also on board the English-language project, which explores the missing chapter in the life of the world’s most famous detective.

The series begins with one of the most famous moments in literary history: the apparent death of Sherlock Holmes (Spall) at the Reichenbach Falls. While the world believes the master detective perished in his final duel with Professor Moriarty, The Death of Sherlock Holmes reveals for the first time what happened during the three mysterious years between his disappearance in 1891 and his return in 1894 – a chapter that Arthur Conan Doyle left untold and which now finds its story.

Rafe Spall as Sherlock Holmes

Set against the Swiss Alps, the story follows an Englishman found barely alive in an icy mountain stream by local woman Alma (Piasko) and her young son, Franz. When the village doctor is found murdered, villagers turn on the boy – leaving the amnesiac stranger as his only hope. Though the man remembers nothing, flashes of razor-sharp deduction betray a hidden past. As unsettling fragments of memory return, he must confront an unnerving question: who is he really? What starts as an isolated Alpine mystery soon opens into a far-reaching conspiracy that draws the man closer to the truth of his past – and the legendary name he may once have borne.

The cast also includes Dominic Geissbühler, Rick Okon, Marie Leuenberger, Michael Neuenschwander, Dimitri Stapfer, Susanne Kunz, Marcus Signer and Jeanette Hain.

The Death of Sherlock Holmes is created by Claudia Bluemhuber (Fallen), André Küttel (Platzspitzbaby) and Pierre Monnard (Winter Palace), written by Küttel and Simone Schmid (Die Beschatter), and inspired by the characters of Arthur Conan Doyle. Pierre Monnard and Bluemhuber are directing.

The Swiss-German-Belgian coproduction is produced by Silver Reel with Sky Switzerland, SRF, ARD Degeto and Umedia. Sphere Abacus is handling international distribution.

Sky will broadcast the series exclusively in the UK and Ireland. The series will stream on Sky in Switzerland and Germany, while SRF will broadcast in Switzerland and ARD Degeto in Germany. The project is supported by FFF Bayern and the IDM Film Commission.

Bluemhuber and Monnard are the showrunners, supported by co-execs Florian Dargel, Alexander Jooss, Fabian Stein, Baptiste Planche, Bettina Alber, Jonathan Ford and Will Stapley. Alen Bulic oversees the project for Silver Reel.

Filming will take place until July 2026 in Valais, Switzerland, as well as in South Tyrol and Bavaria.

First Look, , , , , , , , ,

FIRST LOOK: Bill Nighy, Helena Bonham Carter, Erin Doherty and Tom Burke appear in the first images from California Avenue, a new BBC drama from writer and director Hugo Blick set to air later this year.

Described as a story of humour and love, the six-part series takes place in the 1970s in a secluded canal-side caravan park deep in the luscious English countryside. But the peace is irrevocably disrupted by the arrival of Lela (Doherty) and her 11-year-old child Bee (Cammie Liebreich), both on the run, looking for refuge in this hidden world. It is here that a fractured family will come together, ghosts of the past will firmly be put to rest and an unexpected love is forged.

Nighy and Bonham Carter star as Jerry and Eddie, Lela’s parents, ballroom champions of the 1930s who became wartime runaways and are still hiding, three decades on, while Burke co-stars as fairground outcast, Cooper, whose turbulent past will explode into California Avenue.

Kate Robbins plays Priscilla, the formidable force running the caravan site alongside her husband, site manager and jack-of-all-trades, Kevin, played by Paul Kaye.

Produced by Drama Republic (One Day, Doctor Foster), the series is the latest collaboration between Blick, Drama Republic, Eight Rooks and the BBC following The English, The Honourable Woman and Black Earth Rising.

California Avenue is created, written and directed by Blick. The producer is Colin Wratten (The English, Lockerbie: A Search for Truth) and the executive producers are Blick for Eight Rooks, Greg Brenman for Drama Republic, Bill Nighy, Helena Bonham Carter and Lucy Richer for the BBC.

Heaven sent: Roísín Gallagher on the final season of The Dry and starring in Netflix’s How to Get to Heaven from Belfast

STAR POWER, , , ,

As The Dry bows out and following the launch of How to Get to Heaven from Belfast on Netflix, actor Roísín Gallagher reflects on leaving one beloved character behind, embracing another and navigating a year of creative extremes. With the debut of the third and final season of The Dry in Ireland last week, Roísín Gallagher is saying goodbye to Shiv Sheridan, the recovering alcoholic she has played in the ITV and RTÉ comedy since its debut in 2022. The story sees Shiv return home to Dublin from London as she attempts to stay sober after years of partying, only to find her family isn’t entirely supportive of her new state of mind. In season three, once again written by Nancy Harris and directed by Paddy Breathnach, the Sheridans face their biggest challenge yet as a huge secret knocks them all sideways. “Nancy always had three seasons in her head,” Gallagher tells DQ. “None of the cast or crew wanted to let it go, so there were a lot of jokes about [making] a Christmas special. But I think that was just a joke. It was great fun. I really enjoyed it. It’s a gorgeous way to say goodbye to the Sheridan family.” Before filming began in Dublin on the final episodes of The Dry, however, Gallagher spent time in Northern Ireland shooting the recently released Netflix series How to Get to Heaven from Belfast. Saying goodbye to one character and hello to another in the past 12 months, it’s … Continue reading Heaven sent: Roísín Gallagher on the final season of The Dry and starring in Netflix’s How to Get to Heaven from Belfast →

First Look, , , , ,

FIRST LOOK: Josephine Park and Soheil Bavi tackle the fight against opioids in TV 2 Denmark’s new crime series Fristelsen (Side Effects), which is now filming ahead of its premiere in 2027.

Described as a fast-paced crime series, it seeks to combine high-intensity suspense, gripping character drama and a strong visual expression to tell a story centring on the growing social problem around the number of young people using synthetic drugs and opioids.

When a new type of deadly pills pours onto the Danish market, it leaves a long line of victims. Investigation leader Nora Søby (Park) from NSK (National Unit for Serious Crime) does everything she can to stop the pills before they spread further and take her own daughter, Alberte (Flora Ofelia), with her.

Together with her dedicated colleagues, Tarik (Bavi), Emma (Sara Fanta) and William (Emil Hyldeborg), Nora embarks on a thrilling investigation to unravel the masterminds’ organisation and stop the pills before they claim more innocent lives.

The supporting cast also includes Jakob Cedergren, Marco Ilsø, Clint Ruben, Iben Dorner, Petrine Agger and Peter Christoffersen.

The six-part series is produced by Miso Film and has just started filming in Copenhagen and the surrounding area. It is created by main writer Lasse Kyed Rasmussen and directed by Jonas Alexander Arnby.

Disney+ takes on Rivals with first trailer for season two

Trailer park, , ,

TRAILER: David Tennant, Alex Hassell, Aidan Turner, Nafessa Williams and Bella Maclean return for the second season of Rivals, which debuts on Hulu and Disney+ with a three-episode premiere on May 15, 2026. Watch the trailer now.

The new footage spotlights the vengeful return of Lord Tony Baddingham (Tennant) who is on a mission to destroy Rupert Campbell-Black (Hassell) and Declan O’Hara (Turner)’s rival television company Venturer.

In the second season, the battle for the Central South West television franchise reaches fever pitch as the war between Corinium and Venturer enters a dangerous new phase.

Amidst the hedonistic glamour of 80s excess, the personal lives of our Rutshire heroes spiral into chaos. Marriages fracture under the weight of ambition, illicit affairs threaten to shatter families, and long-buried secrets ignite with explosive consequences.

BBC finds more puzzles for David Mitchell to solve in Ludwig S2

First Look, , , , , , , , , ,

FIRST LOOK: David Mitchell and Anna Maxwell Martin will be joined by Mark Bonnar and Sian Clifford when puzzling crime comedy-drama Ludwig returns to BBC One and BBC iPlayer for its second season later this year.

Picking up from the end of season one, John (Mitchell) is now a crime scene consultant, working alongside DCI Russell Carter (Dipo Ola) on ‘impossible’ crimes for the Cambridge Police Authority. No longer having to masquerade as his brother, he’s openly more ‘Ludwig’ than ever – brilliant at solving puzzles but hopeless at everything else.

But John’s identical twin brother, James, is still missing, and now that he’s an official employee of the station, John is forbidden from using any police resources to look for his brother or uncover exactly what he was investigating.

Of course, John won’t stop and neither will Lucy (Maxwell Martin), John’s sister-in-law and wife of his missing brother James – a puzzle needs solving and a husband and father needs bringing home. One masquerade may have ended, but a new one has just begun.

Also returning for season two are Dylan Hughes as Henry Betts-Taylor, Dorothy Atkinson as DCS Carol Shaw, Ralph Ineson as Chief Constable Ziegler and Karl Pilkington as DI Matt Neville.

Joining the cast as series regulars are Bonnar as newspaper editor Gareth Fisher, Clifford as local MP Joanne Kemper, Ben Ashenden as DC Ethan Cole and Rumi Sutton as DC Caitlin Sullivan.

Ludwig is created and written by Mark Brotherhood and produced by Big Talk Studios, in association with That Mitchell and Webb Company, in coproduction with BritBox and Germany’s ZDF. ITV Studios handles international distribution.

Season two is again written by Brotherhood, and the directors are George Kane (episodes 1,2 & 3) and Stella Corradi (episodes 4, 5 & 6). The executive producers are Kenton Allen and Toby Welch for Big Talk Studios, Brotherhood, Mitchell, Kathryn O’Connor, Chris Sussman; Robert Schildhouse and Stephen Nye for BritBox; and Frank Seyberth and Claus Wunn for ZDF. The producer is Georgie Fallon, with Anya Wilson as coproducer.
