- Synopsis:
London, turn of the 20th century. For the first time in human history, everything is changing and there's a growing belief that science can explain it all, including the mysteries of death itself. Enter two of the great characters - Harry Houdini (Michael Weston) master magician, escape artist and paranormal debunker - and Arthur Conan Doyle (Stephen Mangan) creator of the greatest detective of all time, a man who brought to life the ultimate rationalist Sherlock Holmes but a man who also \believes in fairies. In this bold and thrilling new crime drama series, from the Emmy winning makers of 'House', the two most fascinating and iconic characters of the early 20th century grudgingly join forces and become real-life friends, real-life adversaries and real-life crime solvers. - Actors:

Ug - Houdini and Doyle review by CP Customer
Could have been good, GReat concept , nice costumes and sets. Quite good storylines but the script was writen in the words of upper middle class spoilt hipsters.
And of course the female police is an extremely arrogant and annoying psycho, who is tiny and thin and knocks a huge villan out cold.
No one wants these creepy fake modern sensibilities forced onto EVERYTHING.
