Miss Scarlet and the Duke

Stumbled across this show. Have watched 4 episodes so far & loving it. It reminds me a little of The Alienist due to the period setting (not as gruesome though). I hope the series is continued after the first season.

The mysteries were great & not obvious. The characters & acting are close to perfect. The debate on women's roles & rights were completely on point without being tiring & somtimes pointless as you see in many other series.

The costumes and sets are brilliant. Not surprised as the Irish film industry is long accustomed to facilitating top quality period productions. The cast and acting is great, Mr Moses in particular adds to the ensemble. Sometimes let down by the storylines and the set up is a little cliched (two people don't get on but respect are care for each other, hints of romance, will they won't they). It hits a good balance between charm, humour and more serious tones, very enjoyable and do hope we will be able get more when the world recovers.

I haven't seen anyone mention this yet but I surely can't be the only one who noticed it...During the credits after each episode, some of the letters are in red font instead of white. I wondered if they spelled clues and yep they do! Fun! Keep an eye out fellow sleuths!

I loved the costumes from the 'way back ' days, the storylines and the undercurrents from the characters. Thoroughly enjoyed all 6 episodes. Was disappointed when the series finished. Would love to see more of this.
