Dated but amusing, in its way, this 1980's version of "Partners in Crime" is heavy on the insouciance and light on realism. Am tempted to read the Christie work just to see what was kept/jettisoned/changed from her original version. In several places the dialogue was difficult to catch. David Walliams and Jessica Raine star as the titular "partners," amateur detectives Tommy and Tuppence, who stumble into a world of murder, undercover agents and Soviet conspiracy.

In 1950’s Cold War Britain, suburban married couple Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are thrust into a world of spies, assassins and double agents. All of the actors portray their parts very well. Partners in Crime is an adventure series that combines edge of your seat thrills with a judicious dose of humour, set in 1950s Britain as the ashes of the Blitz clear to reveal the anxieties of the Cold War. In terms of authenticity of time and place, the series is pretty spot on and simply loads of fun to watch.

The first time Tommy and Tuppence appeared in a Christie novel was in The Secret Adversary (1922).
