Sherlock and Poirot Lead 10 Mystery Shows Streaming Free This November

A Free Month of Mysteries

The channel is free and ad-supported, with an always-on schedule. Its featured mysteries will air throughout November, and several titles will receive dedicated marathons.

Four Featured British Detectives

The announced lineup includes Agatha Christie’s Poirot, Sherlock, Grantchester and Endeavour. The programming event brings together familiar investigators for viewers looking to spend November with detective stories. The article describes returning to a favorite investigator as part of the appeal, alongside discovering less familiar characters. It also notes that the schedule extends beyond Halloween.

More Series in the Lineup

The article also highlights Midsomer Murders, which has run since 1997 and has sold to more than two hundred territories worldwide. John Nettles handed the lead role to Neil Dudgeon in 2011.

Broadchurch is presented as a story about the effects of a murder on a small town. Olivia Colman won a BAFTA for Best Actress for its first series, and Chris Chibnall created the show.

Luther and Vera Stanhope

Luther follows London detective John Luther, played by Idris Elba. Elba won a Golden Globe for the role in 2012, and the film Luther: The Fallen Sun arrived on Netflix in 2023.

Vera stars Brenda Blethyn as Vera Stanhope. Blethyn played the character for fourteen series before stepping away, and ITV ended the show rather than recast the role; Ann Cleeves wrote the novels behind Vera and Shetland.
