Stephen Mangan plays Sir Arthur Conan Doyle alongside Michael Weston as Harry Houdini, two of the most fascinating and iconic characters of the early 20th century: real-life friends, real-life adversaries, real-life crime solvers. Episodes three and four, directed by Daniel O’Hara, investigate a ‘faith healer’ and a case of mass hysteria when a mysterious murderous phantom terrorises London.
The series will have an American premiere on Fox on 2nd May.
