Foyle's War
CrimeDramaMysteryWar94 min per episode
In wartime Britain, Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle investigates murders and betrayals that unfold under blackout rules, rationing, troop movements, and constant suspicion. While bombs fall and the country is focused on the front, his cases stay rooted at home: black-market schemes, profiteering, divided loyalties, and crimes that hide behind patriotic duty. Each investigation pulls him into the pressures of the Second World War, where witnesses keep secrets for personal reasons as often as political ones. Michael Kitchen anchors Foyle as a patient, precise detective whose work continues into the uneasy years just after the war, when peace brings new forms of espionage, corruption, and unsettled scores.
