Daytime TV in the UK is about to get a riveting new addition in the form of The Northumbria Mysteries, as Robson Green, Liz White, and Gurjeet Singh join forces for a slew of compelling crime stories and detective adventures.
There will be eight episodes in total (so far), airing during the afternoons in Britain. So, pop on the kettle, stick your feet up, relax and enjoy watching the odd couple detective duo of Rose O'Connell, an Oxford-educated police woman, and Joe Ruby, a man who never seems to have much luck or success in life.
