Review of "Hetty Wainthropp Season 1" by

It just gets better and better for us Anglophiles who love the Britsh mysteries. Patricia Routledge who charmed and delighted us all in her series on PBS “Keeping Up Appearances,” where she plays a silly role of an upward pushy lady with iffy relative. She has come back in a perfect roll for her. Now she has just turned 60, but doesn’t want to be a senior citizen. Money is tight and Hetty decides that she should look for work. As you may guess, that doesn’t work out at all. She finally finds a spot working in a local post office. When she suspects that young couple who regularly pick up the retirement checks for an old lady of lying and stealing. She chases down the truth and finds a murder. She also discovers that she has a talent for sleuthing. Hetty makes a decision at this point and goes into her own business as a detective. Her husband is baffled but comes to believe in her. Hetty finds a young man who is about to get into trouble. She takes him on as her assistant. They make a great pair as they go one to solve more mysteries.
