Rounded out by returning favorites (Blue Lights, After the Flood, Ludwig) and a fresh, modern installment from the Agatha Christie universe (Agatha Christie’s Tommy & Tuppence), BritBox remains the destination for the best in British television.

One of the most quirkily genial and lovable characters to emerge from English detective fiction, the kindly cleric with his large umbrella and numerous brown paper parcels, possesses a sharp intelligence and limitless knowledge of men’s evil. He works using intuition, shaped by his experiences as a priest and confessor.

FEBRUARY 5: Grace Season 5 | BritBox Original, BritBox Exclusive, North America Premiere | 4 x 120’ | Released Weekly
Grace (John Simm, I, Jack Wright) faces stakes higher than ever in four gripping new cases. As personal and professional pressures reach the breaking point, past secrets and shocking betrayals will surface.

Sense and Sensibility tells of the Dashwood sisters, sensible Elinor (Emma Thompson, Why Didn’t They Ask Evans?) and passionate Marianne (Kate Winslet, The Holiday), whose chances at marriage seem doomed by their family’s sudden loss of fortune.

Alan Rickman (Love Actually), Hugh Grant (A Very English Scandal), and Greg Wise (The Crown) co-star as the well-intentioned suitors who are trapped by the strict rules of society and the conflicting laws of desire.

FEBRUARY 12: Agatha and the Truth of Murder (2018) | New to BritBox | 1 x 120’ | Released All at Once
In 1926, with her personal life in tatters and her writing in crisis, a young Agatha Christie (Ruth Bradley, Slow Horses) becomes involved in a notorious unsolved murder. When the goddaughter and namesake of Florence Nightingale (Stacha Hicks, Call the Midwife) is found on a train to Hastings with her skull caved in, the subsequent investigation and public outcry fail to catch the killer.

Driven to distraction by the absence of justice, Florence’s partner of twenty-six years Mabel Rogers (Pippa Haywood, Bodyguard) turns to Agatha in the hope she can succeed where the police failed. But pursuing a plan based on everything she’s learnt through her work, Agatha discovers that this killer is far more cunning and dangerous than any of her fictional creations.

FEBRUARY 26: Deadwater Fell Season 1 | New to BritBox | 4 x 60’ | Released All at Once
When a seemingly perfect and happy family is murdered by someone they know and trust, the small Scottish community they call home becomes riven with mistrust and suspicion as those closest to the family begin to question everything they thought they knew about their friends.

Deadwater Fell examines in unflinching detail the nature of female friendship and the harmful, entrenched gender stereotypes and conformity that can lead to the most devastating consequences. Laying bare the fragility of trust and the corrosive nature of lies, the series demonstrates that even the closest of friends all have their secrets.
