Synopsis:
DI Max Arnold (Scarborough) is a down-to-earth, wily and wise detective with no shortage of crimes to solve in London’s beautiful – yet brutal – borough. Now, following the successful first series, which saw the sharp sleuth tackle everything from murder on the London Underground to the bludgeoning of a respected educator, he reopens his casebook for a host of mysterious misdeeds with the help of his new partner, strong-willed and warm-hearted Detective Sergeant Layla Walsh (Vanessa Emme – Bloodlands, The Fall). Will the duo be able to get along well enough to solve murders successfully?

In this series, cases include the brutal murder of an art gallery manager at a high-end Chelsea exhibition, the mysterious death of an elderly woman in a luxury retirement home, the unsettling killing of a psychotherapist with an erratic patient as a prime suspect and the vicious murder of a charming fruit and veg delivery service owner.

In series one, we meet Max living on a houseboat on the River Thames, having separated from his art dealer wife, Astrid (Anamaria Marinca – Midsomer Murders, Fury). With D.S. Priya Shamsie (Sonita Henry – Luther, Krypton), they investigate a slew of enthralling cases from the strange to the complex.

The Chelsea Detective is guaranteed to entertain with its gritty crime and second-to-none case solving from one the best in the business, DI Max Arnold, alongside his crack team of cohorts. The crimes may be heinous, but there’s plenty of humour and oodles of charm along the way – and if that’s not enough, we’re treated to a welcome tour around the streets of London.

Synopsis
Meet The Chelsea Detective in this original and gripping new crime-drama starring the inimitable Adrian Scarborough (Killing Eve, Gavin & Stacey, The King's Speech, 1917), who was made for this leading role as DI Max Arnold,  a down-to-earth, wily and wise detective, with no shortage of crimes to solve in London’s beautiful – yet brutal – borough.
 
This Acorn TV Original drama delighted viewers, and earned a legion of fans, when it premiered on Acorn TV and now, hot on the heels of a brand-new second season, The Chelsea Detective Series One is set to make its DVD and digital debut on 18 September 2023 courtesy of Acorn Media International.

After separating from his art dealer wife Astrid (Anamaria Marinca – Midsomer Murders, Fury), Max (Scarborough) lives on a houseboat on the River Thames in Chelsea, just yards from some of the most valuable real estate in Europe. The highly regarded borough is full of beautiful people, but it has a dark underside of deprivation, violence, greed – and murder. Bodies have a way of showing up and things are rarely as they seem, but Max’s determination and knowledge of London’s streets means he’ll find a way to root out the truth and bring those responsible to justice – regardless of their wealth or status.

Together with his trusty colleague, Streatham-born D.C. Priya Shamsie (Sonita Henry – Luther, Krypton), Max must investigate a slew of enthralling cases from the strange to the complex, including the death of a lonely stonemason on the London Underground, which, at first, seems like a real-life haunting; the strange disappearance of Robyn Romano, social media sensation and wife of high-profile restauranteur; the stabbing of a well-liked security guard which takes Max from the luxury homes of the super-rich to drug dealing street corners and the murder of a teacher at a prestigious international school.

For captivating crime in well-to-do West London, open your casebook for The Chelsea Detective Series One – an addictively good police procedural showcasing witty humour, charming characters and spectacular sites.
