The mysteries in Partners in Crime are decent--this is Christie, after all — but what really makes the series click is the sometimes saucy, sometimes prickly interplay between the Beresfords, Tommy (David Walliams) and Tuppence (Jessica Raine).
The stories themselves require some tolerance for unlikely developments, but they’re cleanly told and move along at a brisk clip. It’s all a spot of good fun.
Tommy and Tuppence, who, played simperingly by Call the Midwife’s Jessica Raine and Little Britain’s David Walliams, prove to be every bit as precious as their names sound. [31 Aug - 13 Sep 2015, p.10]
