Watch it tonight if you're craving a clever, character-driven whodunit with charm and wit—the 1950s London theater setting is deliciously atmospheric, and the buddy-cop dynamic between the inspectors promises genuine fun. Skip it only if you need heavy drama; this is stylish mystery-comedy comfort food, not a tense thriller.

Plot

In the West End of 1950s London, plans for a movie version of a smash-hit play come to an abrupt halt after a pivotal member of the crew is murdered. When world-weary Inspector Stoppard and eager rookie Constable Stalker take on the case, the two find themselves thrown into a puzzling whodunit within the glamorously sordid theater underground, investigating the mysterious homicide at their own peril.
