Ellis Series 2 arrives on DVD with the swagger of a show that knows it has already earned its place in the modern detective‑drama lineup. The first series was praised as “the British detective drama that the genre has been crying out for” and Sharon D. Clarke was singled out for pouring “wit, enigma and emotion into her leading role” . That energy carries straight into the new season, but with a sharper edge and a deeper emotional pulse.
Read MoreMore Murder, Same Cozy Charm: Harry Wild Series 4
Somewhere between a warm cup of tea and a perfectly untaxing whodunit sits Harry Wild, a show that feels designed to be shared. I know this because after covering earlier seasons, I casually mentioned it to my mom and discovered she was already a fan. That pretty much seals the deal.
Read MoreHidden Assets Series 3 Is Proof Gritty TV Still Belongs on Disc
There is something reassuring about sliding a two-disc crime box set into your player and watching a show that knows exactly what it is. Hidden Assets Series 3 does not posture, does not soften its edges, and does not chase binge-friendly gloss. It digs in, follows the money, and lets the bodies pile up.
Read MoreMurder, Mayhem and Maiden Aunts: Queens of Mystery Series 2 on DVD
I will always show up for Inbetweeners alumni, so spotting Martin Trenaman in Queens of Mystery Series 2 felt like a promise already being kept. Add in the presence of Bend It Like Beckham royalty via Juliet Stevenson, and this second run of the Acorn favourite had my attention before the first body even hit the floor. Queens of Mystery wastes no time reminding you why it earned its Emmy nomination, and with Series 2 now landing on DVD and digital courtesy of Acorn Media International, this feels like the ideal format for revisiting Wildemarsh.
Read MoreMystery Road: Origin Series 2 Sinks Its Hooks Deep Into the Outback
After recently seeing Mark Coles Smith in We Bury The Dead and being genuinely impressed with his performance, it was exciting to step back into his earlier incarnation of Jay Swan in Mystery Road: Origin Series 2. If that film showed his intensity, this series proves his range.
Read MoreStill Wild at Heart: Jane Seymour Keeps the Clues Coming in Harry Wild Series 3
I’m always down for more Jane Seymour. And really, who doesn’t love a good whodunit? Especially one that knows exactly what kind of show it is and leans into it without apology.
Read MoreFrom Teen Idol to Trouble in Ireland: Alicia Silverstone Bleeds Truth in Irish Blood
I am not going to pretend I came into Irish Blood without baggage. I loved Alicia Silverstone growing up. I had the posters, and I watched Clueless an irresponsible number of times.
Read MoreBurn the Town, Not the Witch: Sanctuary Turns Murder Into a Modern Witch Hunt
If you are even remotely witch-pilled, Sanctuary: A Witch’s Tale feels like an easy sell. Drop it into spooky season, add a murder mystery, and let a supposedly progressive town slowly reveal its uglier instincts. Consider me hooked. What initially plays as a cozy, small-town crime drama quickly curdles into something more pointed and uncomfortable, using witchcraft less as a genre gimmick and more as a social stress test.
Read MoreArt Detectives Brings Culture, Crime, and Stephen Moyer Charm
Art Detectives arrives as a polished blend of art-world intrigue and classic British mystery comfort viewing, a show that feels right at home alongside series like Midsomer Murders or The Chelsea Detective. As someone who very much enjoyed True Blood, I am always glad to see Stephen Moyer take on new roles. Here, he gets a character that leans into his natural charm without relying on the supernatural intensity he is best known for, and it suits him.
Read MoreA Perfect Winter Escape: All Creatures Great & Small Returns With Its Most Heartfelt Series Yet
All Creatures Great & Small has long been known as the ultimate feel-good series, and the arrival of Series 6 on DVD and digital on 1 December 2025 proves once again why it remains one of Britain’s most cherished dramas. Released alongside the expansive Complete Series 1–6 Box Set from Acorn Media International, the new season is a warm, comforting return to the Yorkshire Dales just in time for the holidays. Critics have praised the show since its reboot began, calling it everything from “the comforting TV we all need” to “an underrated gem of the British canon.”
Read MoreMurder Before Evensong: Season 1 (2025) #DVD
Murder Before Evensong arrives as a charmingly atmospheric new mystery series, blending gentle humour, small-village intrigue, and a classic whodunit structure that feels right at home in the long tradition of British cozy crime. Adapted from Reverend Richard Coles’ Sunday Times bestselling novel, the six-part series leans into picturesque 1980s rural England, complete with gossiping parishioners, simmering scandals, and a church at the centre of more trouble than anyone in Champton ever expected. It’s always fun to see a familiar face doing something new, and Harry Potter alumnus Matthew Lewis makes a genuinely engaging pivot here as Canon Daniel Clement, a kind-hearted, slightly beleaguered clergyman who unexpectedly finds himself in detective mode.
Read MoreThe White Lotus: Season 3 (2025) #DVD
As a massive fan of the first two seasons of The White Lotus, I was eager to dive headfirst into season three. Mike White’s Emmy-winning series has always thrived on the delicate mix of satire, mystery, and simmering tension, and relocating the story to the lush backdrop of Thailand only heightens that formula. The DVD release now gives fans the chance to relive all eight episodes, plus bonus content, and it is well worth adding to the collection.
