The Chelsea Detective
The show
Detective Inspector Max Arnold lives on a battered houseboat at the end of Cheyne Walk after separating from his art dealer wife Astrid. The son of a local bookshop owner, Max is a far cry from the affluent elite whose crimes he'll help solve along with D.C. Priya Shamsie.
People are here for Adrian Scarborough, who makes DI Max Arnold a compelling, grounded lead, even when the show itself feels a little standard. The cozy murder mysteries are decent enough, with Max's houseboat life adding a bit of charm, but a fair number of viewers find the plots predictable and the pacing can drag. It's a solid, well-acted comfort watch, not a groundbreaking one.
