Foyle's War

Foyle's War has quietly become one of the more dependable crime dramas currently available in Australia on BINGE and Foxtel Now, and in the US on YouTube TV and Acorn TV. 9 seasons of it means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. Its 8/10 TMDB score, built from 108 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Michael Kitchen's performance alone is worth the time investment. Available now on BINGE — press play and find out why people keep recommending it.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Foyle's War earns its spot. The plotting in Foyle's War is tight enough that the twists feel earned rather than assembled. As WW2 rages around the world, DCS Foyle fights his own war on the home-front as he investigates crimes on the south coast of England. Foyle's War opens in southern England in the year 1940. Later series sees the retired detective working as an MI5 agent operating in the aftermath of the war. Credit to Michael Kitchen and Honeysuckle Weeks for grounding it — this is a cast that earns the twists. Across 9 seasons (2002–2015), it never lost the thread that made it worth starting. Foyle's War is at its best in the quiet scenes between the plot beats, where the character work actually happens. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

For anyone who wants their crime drama to earn its twists, Foyle's War delivers. Viewers who responded to Inspector George Gently will find a lot to like here too. 9 seasons gives the story real room to develop. Michael Kitchen's performance is the kind that shows up on best-of lists years later. If you have been looking for something to fill the gap left by a recently finished story, this is a reliable answer.
