Today Alan Davies is best known as a stand-up comedian and panelist on QI, but this TV series was his breakthrough. To become Jonathan Creek, all he has to do is put on his duffle coat. The first two seasons were the best, but they've continued to make sporadic episodes ever since.
The nonchalant curly-haired person with the drawling speech lives in a redesigned windmill. Together with sweet tooth Maddy, he solves crimes that are too difficult for the police. Both amateur sleuths use the skills of their profession. As a fiction writer she knows how to come up with the right pretexts to penetrate somewhere under cover. As a magician, he sees through the illusions surrounding a planned crime.
It revolves around situations that seem impossible: a seemingly perfect alibi, a theft from a highly secured room, a corpse falling out of the closet... Often it looks like a magic trick. As a viewer you can puzzle along and there is quite a bit of humor in it. Favorite Episode: 3.
