It's the start of the 20th century London. Harry Houdini (Michael Weston) is a cynic and a famous performer. Arthur Conan Doyle (Stephen Mangan) is the famed writer of the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. They are best of friends and opposite in philosophy. They collaborate to investigate cases with supernatural aspects. The police is dismissive and assigns them the first female constable Adelaide Stratton (Rebecca Liddiard) as their liaison.
I really like the relationship between the men and with Adelaide. I like all three actors. This should work better. The production is inferior. The lighting is too bright. It doesn't have the feel. I also don't like going to the new world in the last couple of episodes. It doesn't fit. It would have been better if they go to Scotland. The bromance is great but everything else is a step below.
